Free live AIS ship tracking: find any ship by name, MMSI or IMO, and see who is arriving at a port.
Free live AIS ship tracking: lets an assistant look up ships by name, MMSI or IMO, read a ship's details, and see port arrivals and departures.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.shiptrail%2Fshiptrail/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

}Search ships
Find ships by name, MMSI (9 digits) or IMO number (7 digits): every ship with a Shiptrail page, any class, on the map now or heard in the last year. Ships on the map now come first. Use get_ship with an MMSI for the whole record.
limitqueryrequiredGet a ship
Everything Shiptrail's page shows about one ship, by MMSI: identity, size, position, speed, course and status, destination and ETA, where she came from, recent port calls, particulars and registry facts, photo and its credit, a Wikipedia summary, and, with includeNearby, the ships near her. No history over time.
mmsirequiredincludeNearbySearch ports
Find ports by name or UN/LOCODE. Busy ports come first, with how many ships are in port, en route and lately departed. Use get_port with a UN/LOCODE for its boards.
limitqueryrequiredGet a port
A port's Arrivals board (ships in port now, then ships en route by ETA) and Departures board (ships that left in the last 48 hours), as its Shiptrail page shows them, by UN/LOCODE. Each row carries the ship's MMSI for get_ship.
limitlocoderequired83% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
Declare a GitHub repository with a README, or serve resource_documentation in the OAuth protected-resource metadata.
A hosted service is used under its provider's terms, so no license is expected here. This check is left out of the percentage.
