Railway + OrchestrAI
Catalog exported 2026-09-02 · Railway website
Deploy to Railway from chat, set service variables with approval, and list projects and deployments.
OrchestrAI exposes 5 Railway operations: 3 are low-risk (read-only or low-impact), and 2 create or modify resources and run only after you confirm the plan. 2 of them also carry a step-level approval gate.
What teams use it for
Small teams on Railway use OrchestrAI to redeploy a service after a config change and to set an environment variable such as a rotated API key without pasting it into a dashboard, and the value is redacted in the dry-run output so it never shows up in the thread. Listing projects and their deployments answers which version of the worker service is running in production. Both mutations are high risk and approval-gated. Railway deploy logs, cancelling a deployment, and removing a service are not covered, so debugging a failed build still means opening Railway.
Every Railway operation, with its risk level
| Operation | What it does | Risk | Step-level approval |
|---|---|---|---|
List Managed Platform Deployments |
List deployments, machines, or runtime resources for providers that expose deployment inventory | Low risk | No |
List Managed Platform Projects |
List projects, apps, sites, databases, or clusters for supported PaaS and managed database providers | Low risk | No |
Validate Managed Platform Connection |
Validate configured credentials for a supported PaaS or managed database provider | Low risk | No |
Set Managed Platform Environment Variable |
Set an environment variable for Vercel or Railway with approval gating; values are redacted in dry-run output | Modifies existing | Yes |
Trigger Managed Platform Deployment |
Trigger an approval-gated deployment or build for Vercel, Railway, Netlify, or Render | Modifies existing | Yes |
Risk tiers come from the catalog: low is read-only or low-impact, medium creates resources and is reversible, high modifies existing resources, destructive may lose data. Every plan that creates or changes resources is shown with its cost estimate and waits for your confirmation. Operations marked with a step-level approval pause again on their own step. Destructive operations require a typed risk phrase.
What you connect
A Railway credential (stored as vercel, fly, railway, netlify, render, neon, supabase, planetscale, upstash, aiven, cockroachdb_cloud).
Connected-service tokens are envelope-encrypted with a per-record key wrapped by a cloud KMS.
Prompts that work
- Set STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET on the api service in the production environment of the billing project on Railway
- Redeploy the worker service in the notifications project
- List every Railway project we have and the most recent deployment for each
Before anything runs
Every mutation shows its plan, cost estimate, and blast radius, then waits for your confirmation. Destructive operations require a typed risk phrase. Credentials are minted per run through OIDC federation and discarded afterward; nothing you create here is invisible later, because every resource lands in the desired-state ledger where drift is detected and can be converged. Details on the security page.
Frequently asked questions
- Will my secret value show up in chat when OrchestrAI sets a Railway variable?
- No, managed_platform_set_environment_variable redacts the value in its dry-run output, then waits for your approval before writing it to Railway.
- Can OrchestrAI read Railway deployment logs?
- Not currently. It can list projects and deployments and trigger a new one, but the deployment event feed is only available for Vercel, Fly.io, Netlify, and Render.
- How does OrchestrAI authenticate to Railway?
- You add a Railway credential once in the connections screen. It is envelope-encrypted with a per-record key wrapped by a cloud KMS and is only decrypted inside the run that needs it.
