Endpoint Security63
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
  • Tool/resource definitions use about 354 tokens (~50/item across 7 items; 7 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 7 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server?

BART Real-Time Transit is a hosted endpoint at https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 7 exposed · ~354 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Common questions

What is the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server?

BART Real-Time Transit is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.srivastsh/bart-mcp. Real-time BART departures, trip planning, fares, stations, and advisories. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://bart-mcp.srivastsh.workers.dev/mcp).

Is the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server safe to use?

BART Real-Time Transit scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server expose?

BART Real-Time Transit exposes 7 tools: bart_stations, bart_station_lookup, bart_departures, bart_trip, bart_advisories, and 2 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 354 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to BART Real-Time Transit without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the BART Real-Time Transit MCP server still maintained?
