https://airlinestarlinktracker.com/mcp
- Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
- Go to Settings → Connectors.
- Click Add custom connector.
- Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
- In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.
Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.
Authorization
After you click Add, a sign-in window for the service opens. Sign in with your own account and approve access. Claude never sees your password.
How to connect Airline Starlink Tracker to ChatGPT
The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:
https://airlinestarlinktracker.com/mcp
- Open ChatGPT in a browser (chatgpt.com). A Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu plan is required.
- Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.
- Open Settings → Connectors and click Create.
- Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).
- Under Authentication choose OAuth if the service requires sign-in, otherwise None. Click Create.
- In a new chat open + → Apps/Connectors and enable the connector.
OpenAI has renamed this section before (Connectors → Apps/Plugins). If the label differs, search settings for "developer mode". On Business/Enterprise workspaces an admin must allow custom connectors first.
Authorization
On first use ChatGPT opens the service's sign-in window. Sign in and approve access.
How to connect Airline Starlink Tracker to Cursor
The server address to paste into Cursor settings:
https://airlinestarlinktracker.com/mcp
Fastest: click Open in Cursor below and confirm the prompt.
Manually:
- In Cursor open Settings → Cursor Settings → MCP and click Add new global MCP server.
- Paste the JSON copied below into
~/.cursor/mcp.json(per project:.cursor/mcp.jsonin the repo root). - Save the file. The server appears in the MCP list; authorize it there if asked.
Authorization
If the service needs sign-in, an authorize button appears next to the server in the MCP list.
Server tool list (7)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| check_flight | Use when the user asks "does my flight have Starlink/WiFi?" with a specific tracked-airline flight number and date. Returns YES if the published aircraft assignment is a plane verified to have Starlink, LIKELY YES if that plane is listed as Starlink-equipped but not yet verified, NO if it is a plane verified to have other WiFi, or a probability estimate if no assignment exists yet (assignments publish ~2 days out). An assignment can still change through an aircraft swap. For dates further out, call predict_flight_starlink directly — check_flight just falls through to the same estimate with extra latency. |
| get_fleet_stats | Use when the user asks "how far along is the Starlink rollout?" or wants overall fleet numbers. Returns tracked airlines Starlink installation counts and percentages across mainline and express fleets, plus a per-aircraft-type breakdown (installed/total per family). Not for per-flight checks — use check_flight for that. |
| list_starlink_aircraft | Use when the user asks about the planes themselves — "which tail numbers have Starlink?", "which aircraft types are equipped?". Returns tracked airlines tail numbers, aircraft types, operators, and install dates (default 50 most recent; pass limit up to 500). Not for finding flights — use search_starlink_flights for that. |
| predict_flight_starlink | Use when the user asks "will my flight have Starlink?" for a date too far out for a confirmed assignment, or with no date at all. Returns the probability that a tracked-airline flight number gets a Starlink plane, from historical observations. Reliability varies: high-confidence (5+ obs) is the most reliable tier but is not a guarantee; low-confidence (0-1 obs) is just the fleet prior. UA1-2999 (mainline) has materially lower coverage than UA3000-6999 (express) — call get_fleet_stats for the current split rather than assuming a rate. |
| plan_starlink_itinerary | Use when the user asks "what's the best way to fly X to Y with Starlink?". Compares Starlink odds on the route across every tracked airline (nonstop, per-carrier). For multi-stop UA routings, connect to unitedstarlinktracker.com/mcp. |
| predict_route_starlink | Use when the user asks "which flights between X and Y have Starlink?" or "what Starlink flights serve airport X?". Single-route lookup: returns tracked airlines flight numbers on a route (or touching an airport) ranked by Starlink probability. Both origin and destination are required (per-airline route comparison). For trip planning with connections, use plan_starlink_itinerary instead — this tool has no connection logic or coverage-ratio ranking. Empty result = route not served by Starlink planes. |
| search_starlink_flights | Use when the user asks "what Starlink flights leave from X tomorrow?" or wants scheduled near-term departures. Returns flights in the next ~2 days whose currently assigned aircraft is Starlink-equipped (verified or listed) — a published assignment, not a prediction, though an aircraft swap can still change it. Pass at least one of origin or destination (both narrows to a single route). Aircraft assignments aren't published further out, so for later dates use predict_route_starlink or plan_starlink_itinerary instead. |
