Integration

Railway integration

Modern cloud platform for deploying and hosting applications with automatic scaling, databases, and continuous deployments. Railway provides infrastructure as code, instant deployments from Git, environment management, and a GraphQL API for programmatic control of projects, services, deployments, environments, and variables.

What you can do with Railway

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Railway API rate limits

17 requests per minute
Bursts of up to 10 requests

Hobby plan: 1000 RPH (~17 RPM), 10 RPS. Pro plan: 10000 RPH, 50 RPS. Free plan: 100 RPH.

These are the limits Railway documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Railway documentation for current values.

Use Railway from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Railway in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Railway operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect Railway

Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
Connect Railway once
Add your Railway connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
