Garth

You can run the Garth Garmin Connect MCP server to access Garmin Connect health and activity data through MCP clients. This server exposes a set of health, activity, and device endpoints that you can query or subscribe to, enabling automated data retrieval and analytics in your MCP workflow.

How to use

You start the MCP server as a local process and connect your MCP client to it. The server runs under your MCP runtime, and you provide an authentication token to authorize access to Garmin Connect data. Use your MCP client to browse available tools, then invoke the specific health, activity, or device endpoints you need. You can plan automated jobs to refresh daily summaries, fetch activities by date, or pull device settings on a schedule.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before starting the server are installed MCP runtime tooling and access to a running Node-like environment that provides the uvx command. Ensure uvx is installed and accessible from the environment where you manage MCP servers.

Configuration and startup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Garth - Garmin Connect": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "garth-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GARTH_TOKEN": "<output of `uvx garth login`>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Make sure the path for the uvx command is fully scoped as MCP doesn't use the same PATH your shell does. On macOS, this is typically /Users/{user}/.local/bin/uvx. Use the exact token output you obtain from uvx garth login when prompted.

## Additional notes

Tools exposed by this MCP server cover Health & Wellness, Activities, Body Data, Devices, and Utility utilities. You can fetch user profiles, daily sleep data, activity lists, weather for activities, body composition, gear information, and monthly summaries. Each tool is a function you can call from your MCP client to retrieve or compute data.

## Security and environment considerations

Keep your GARTH\_TOKEN secure and rotate it as needed. Do not expose the token in logs or in client-side configurations. Ensure your MCP client authenticates to the server using the token you supplied during setup.
