Connect Traxelio MCP to Any Assistant - Traxelio

Connect Traxelio MCP

Point any MCP HTTP client at https://traxelio.com/mcp, approve OAuth, and use the same public OpenAPI tools and scopes as REST. A Traxelio login is always required.

1

What You Get

Traxelio exposes one MCP server at https://traxelio.com/mcp. Any assistant or IDE that speaks MCP over HTTP can connect to that URL, finish OAuth in the browser, and use the same public OpenAPI tools your account already reaches through REST.

One production URL for every MCP HTTP client

Tools come from the public Traxelio OpenAPI document, so MCP adds no capability the API does not already expose

OAuth works the way it does for the REST API, and the consent screen lists what you are granting before you approve

A Traxelio login is always required. There is no anonymous path into the server

Opening the server URL in a browser brings you to this page. Clients talk to the same URL with POST requests

2

Before You Start

Have these ready and the connection stays short.

A Traxelio account you can sign in to, in the browser your client will open

Any MCP client that can register a remote HTTP or streamable HTTP server

The production URL ready to paste, exactly https://traxelio.com/mcp

A few minutes for the browser consent screen, including the rows marked Read first

The Connected Apps section of your Traxelio profile, which is where you revoke access later

3

Connect Any MCP Client

The recipe is host-agnostic. Register Traxelio as a remote HTTP MCP server, approve OAuth, confirm tools loaded, then ask about your fleet. The named examples below only show how a few popular clients phrase that same recipe.

1

Use the production URL exactly: https://traxelio.com/mcp

2

Register it as a remote or streamable HTTP server, not as a local command

3

Approve the OAuth consent screen your client opens in the browser

4

Wait for the tool list to load in the client

5

Ask a concrete question about your fleet, for example the last trip of a vehicle you already track

6

Revoke the connection under Connected Apps when you are done

4

Example: Cursor

One example of a settings UI that takes a remote MCP URL.

1

Open Cursor and go to Settings, then MCP

2

Add a new MCP server

3

Paste https://traxelio.com/mcp as the server URL

4

Complete the OAuth consent flow the client opens in your browser

5

Wait for the Traxelio server to show as connected and for its tools to populate

5

Example: Claude Code

One example of registering an HTTP MCP server from a CLI.

1

Run: claude mcp add --transport http traxelio https://traxelio.com/mcp

2

Authenticate the traxelio server from the client's MCP panel (often /mcp)

3

Approve the Traxelio consent screen in your browser

4

Confirm the server shows as connected

6

Example: Codex

One example of a CLI that takes a URL flag, then a separate OAuth login.

1

Run: codex mcp add traxelio --url https://traxelio.com/mcp

2

Run: codex mcp login traxelio and approve the consent screen in your browser

3

Confirm the traxelio server is registered (for example with codex mcp list)

4

Some CLIs store the entry in a local config file under a url key if you need to inspect it

7

Example: Antigravity

One example of a JSON config file that declares a remote server with a host-specific key name.

1

Open the client's MCP config (in Antigravity: MCP Servers, Manage, View raw config)

2

Add a Traxelio entry: "traxelio": { "serverUrl": "https://traxelio.com/mcp" }

3

Use the remote-server key your host documents. Antigravity uses serverUrl, not url

4

Save the config and reload MCP servers

5

If the client shows an Authenticate action, run it and finish OAuth in your browser

6

Confirm the Traxelio tools appear

9

Revoke Access

Access ends when you revoke it, not when you close the client.

1

Open https://traxelio.com/user/profile

2

Find the Connected Apps section

3

Revoke the connection for the client you added

4

Revocation applies immediately, and the next call from that client fails

5

Reconnecting means running the OAuth flow again

10

Troubleshooting

Most failed connections come from the URL, the transport type, or a consent screen that was never finished.

The browser opened this guide

That is the expected result. People get this page, clients POST to the same URL. Paste the URL into your MCP client instead of visiting it.

The consent screen never appears

Check that the server URL is exactly https://traxelio.com/mcp, then add the server again in your client.

Tools are missing

Clients load the tool list after the connection is approved. Give it a moment, then reload the Traxelio server in your client.

Allow access will not click

Rows marked Read first are still closed. Open each one, then the button turns on. That gate is intentional, not a broken button.

The host rejected the config key

Remote MCP key names differ by client. Some want url, some want serverUrl, some use a settings form with no JSON. Follow your client's docs for a remote HTTP server, and keep the Traxelio value as https://traxelio.com/mcp.

The client asked for a local command

Choose the remote or streamable HTTP option. Traxelio MCP is not a local binary to launch.

You need to cut access now

Revoke the connection under Connected Apps on your Traxelio profile. Do not wait for a token to expire.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

You need a Traxelio account and a login. The MCP server exposes the same public API operations your account can already reach, so what an assistant can do follows what your account can do. Buying tracker hardware is a separate step.
Because a browser asks for a web page, so Traxelio sends you here. MCP clients send POST requests to the same URL and reach the server.
Any MCP client that can register a remote HTTP or streamable HTTP server and complete OAuth against https://traxelio.com/mcp. The named tools on this page are examples of that same recipe, not a closed list.
Read https://traxelio.com/openapi.json. Every MCP tool maps to a public operation in that document, which stays the single map of what is available.
Open your Traxelio profile, find Connected Apps, and revoke the connection. It applies immediately.
