Operate Railway infrastructure: sign up for or sign in to a Railway account, create projects, provision services, databases, and buckets, deploy code, configure infrastructure as code, environments and variables, manage domains, trace requests with OpenTelemetry, troubleshoot failures, check status and metrics, manage feature flags, database recovery and HA, cloud agents, usage limits, and Railway agent tooling.

service
railwayapp/railway-skills
This skill should be used when the user asks about service status, wants to rename a service, change service icons, link services, or create services with Docker images. For creating services with local code, prefer the new skill. For GitHub repo sources, use new skill to create empty service then environment skill to configure source.
central-station
railwayapp/railway-skills
This skill should be used when the user asks about Central Station threads, community discussions, support questions, feature requests, or wants to search Railway's community knowledge base. Use for queries like "search central station", "find threads about", "what are people asking about", "recent support threads", or "central station topics".
status
railwayapp/railway-skills
This skill should be used when the user asks "railway status", "is it running", "what's deployed", "deployment status", or about uptime. NOT for variables ("what variables", "env vars", "add variable") or configuration queries - use environment skill for those.
railway-docs
railwayapp/railway-skills
This skill should be used when the user asks about Railway features, how Railway works, or shares a docs.railway.com URL. Fetches up-to-date Railway docs to answer accurately.
deployment
railwayapp/railway-skills
This skill should be used when the user wants to manage Railway deployments, view logs, or debug issues. Covers deployment lifecycle (remove, stop, redeploy, restart), deployment visibility (list, status, history), and troubleshooting (logs, errors, failures, crashes, why deploy failed). NOT for deleting services - use environment skill with isDeleted for that.
