I code in cursor, claude and factory.ai (droid) and all of them now need full visibility into the CICD process. They can use the gh command to get all of the github actions information necessary to automatically fix projects with pipeline errors, but railway.com is where that visibility stops - there's no equivalent CI or even something in the web UI which would allow one to create a temporary paste from the build logs for a project and then give those to the AI.
I think with the meteoric rise of AI-assisted coding, this is a significant gap.

Hello!
We provide a simple button to copy your build and deployment logs from the UI, and the agent can even run railway logs to programmatically get your logs.

Aha, I see it! You have used the wrong icon for the UI as this is for "download" and I didn't want to download the logs, I wanted to copy them, so I did not click on it. There is another icon (the two overlapping pages icon) for "copy to clipboard" which you should use for this to make it more obvious. See the "material icons" set from Google or the Apple HIG (human-interface guidelines) for pointers on this one.
I also don't see any downlinks on railway.com for this railway CLI you mention. Where is it? TBH, the entire railway.com web site looks like Product Marketing got their hands on it and no software engineering people were involved. 🙂

Never mind, I found the installation link for the CLI at https://docs.railway.com/guides/cli but it took me about 5 clicks - not obvious! The web site and the developer docs are pretty disjoint and don't even follow the same iconography or color schemes (Central Station and the documentation look like they were developed by two different teams). I would... integrate them better!
