Common questions

Is Container Tracking MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.3.0) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Container Tracking MCP Server

Track ocean containers across 200+ shipping lines from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.

Container Tracking MCP is an ocean-freight MCP server that lets an AI assistant track a container via MCP across 225 carriers — including Maersk, MSC, CMA CGM, COSCO, and Hapag-Lloyd. Track by container number, bill of lading, or booking number to get live milestones, vessel position, ETA, and demurrage & detention free time as DCSA-normalised events. It runs as a hosted remote server, so there is nothing to self-host.

Ask your AI: *"Where is container MSCU7349821?"* or *"Which shipments have demurrage risk this week?"*

Supported carriers & coverage

Container Tracking MCP covers 200+ ocean shipping lines (225 carriers). Top lines include:

Maersk · MSC · CMA CGM · COSCO · Hapag-Lloyd · ONE (Ocean Network Express) · Evergreen · HMM · Yang Ming · ZIM · OOCL · Wan Hai · PIL · Hyundai · SITC · KMTC · Matson · Sinokor · Heung-A · Namsung — and 200+ more.

Every carrier is normalised to the DCSA ocean-tracking event standard, so a milestone from any line looks the same to your AI client. Track by:

Container number (e.g. MSCU7349821)
Bill of lading number
Booking number

You get: live milestone events, current vessel name + IMO, live AIS vessel position, ETA with a confidence percentage, demurrage & detention free-time countdown, and port congestion signals.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`getShipmentSummary`	Portfolio overview: total active containers, exceptions, arriving soon, and demurrage risk. Use first to see what needs attention.
`getContainerDetail`	Full status for one container: current location, route, ETA with confidence %, carrier, vessel name + IMO, complete event history, and an AI-generated narrative.
`getVesselPosition`	Live AIS position for a vessel: latitude, longitude, speed over ground, heading, and navigational status (by IMO).
`getDemurrageReport`	Demurrage & detention risk: which containers are near or past free days, daily rates, and projected cost if not moved.
`getPortCongestion`	Congestion at one or more ports by UN/LOCODE: average vessel wait time, vessels at anchor, and level (low/moderate/high/severe).
`addContainer`	Start tracking a new container ID or bill of lading. First status update arrives within ~15 minutes; optional tags organise by client, project, or urgency.

Quick connect

The server is hosted at https://mcp.trackingmcp.com/mcp. Try it with zero signup using the public demo key tmcp_demo_public, or get a free API key.

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

"mcpServers": { "container-tracking": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.trackingmcp.com/mcp", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer tmcp_demo_public"] } } }

Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code (native HTTP MCP)

"mcpServers": { "container-tracking": { "url": "https://mcp.trackingmcp.com/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer tmcp_demo_public" } } } }

Replace tmcp_demo_public with your own key from trackingmcp.com/mcp for live production tracking. Registry ID: io.github.lxxmng/container-tracking.

Example prompts

*"Where is container MSCU7349821?"*

*"Which containers arrive at Rotterdam this week?"*
*"Am I at risk of demurrage on any containers?"*
*"How congested is Felixstowe port right now?"*
