MCP server for Strava — training load analysis, weekly plans, and activity insights

Strava MCP

An MCP server that connects Claude to your Strava data. Get training load analysis, weekly plans, and activity insights — all through conversation.

What it does

• Recent activities — distances, times, heart rates
• Training load analysis — ATL, CTL, TSB metrics with advice (rest or train?)
• Weekly training plan — recommended hours and workout types based on your current form
• Weekly statistics — volume trends over time

Quick install

1. Create a Strava API app

Go to strava.com/settings/api and create an app with:

• Website: http://localhost
• Authorization Callback Domain: localhost

Note your Client ID and Client Secret.

2. Run the installer

Open a terminal and paste:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ArjanLig/strava-mcp/main/install.sh | bash

This will install everything, walk you through Strava authorization, and configure Claude Desktop automatically.

3. Restart Claude Desktop

That's it! Ask Claude about your Strava activities.

Manual install

If you prefer to set things up yourself:

uvx strava-training-mcp --auth

Then add to your Claude Desktop config (Settings → Developer → Edit Config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "strava": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["strava-training-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Example prompts

• "What were my last 5 rides?"
• "How is my training load looking?"
• "Give me a training plan for this week"
• "Show my weekly stats for the past 8 weeks"
