6 tools offered to AI assistants
search_stations· Find stations/stops by name. system: 'nj_transit' (rail + light rail), 'nj_bus' (NJ Transit bus street stops), 'path', or 'all'. 'all' includes bus, so a first 'all' search downloads the 50 MB bus GTFS once; use system='nj_bus' for bus-onlynext_departures· Next departures from a station/stop (name or stop ID). system 'nj_transit': rail + light rail, scheduled by default, live delays when NJT credentials are configured. system 'nj_bus': NJ Transit bus, SCHEDULED only in v1.2 (BUSDATA live nottrip_between· Next NJ Transit trains/buses from origin to destination on the SAME trip (no transfers). Returns departure, arrival and duration. Times ET. system: 'nj_transit' (default, rail + light rail) or 'nj_bus' (bus, scheduled only in v1.2).lines· All lines/routes. NJ Transit: 17 rail + light-rail routes. NJ bus: 263 routes (short_name is the bus number; long names are empty in the bus feed, use trip headsigns for destinations). PATH: 4 daytime routes.service_alerts· Service alerts. NJ Transit alerts require NJT credentials (see server_status for how to enable); PATH has no separate alerts feed in v1, so PATH alerts are reported as unavailable, not invented.server_status· What data this server is actually serving right now: GTFS date range and counts, whether live NJ data is enabled, PATH feed age. Use this to answer 'is this live or scheduled?' honestly.
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
