mcp-garmin
MCP server for Garmin Connect health and fitness data. Read-only access to daily health metrics, activities, workouts, and body composition via the python-garminconnect library.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.14+
- uv
- A Garmin Connect account
Authentication
Garmin Connect uses email/password authentication with optional MFA. The library persists session tokens to ~/.garminconnect/garmin_tokens.json after initial login.
First-time setup
Run the interactive login command to establish tokens. This handles MFA prompts:
# Set credentials (or the CLI will prompt you)
export GARMIN_EMAIL="you@example.com"
export GARMIN_PASSWORD="your-password"
# Interactive login -- prompts for MFA if enabled
uvx mcp-garmin-login
Running the server
The MCP server requires GARMIN_EMAIL and GARMIN_PASSWORD environment variables. It reuses tokens saved by the login step and refreshes them automatically.
export GARMIN_EMAIL="you@example.com"
export GARMIN_PASSWORD="your-password"
