Yes, You Can Connect Your Garmin to Claude — Here's the Missing MCP

Yes, You Can Connect Your Garmin to Claude — Here's the Missing MCP

Someone built a free, hosted MCP server that links your Garmin account to Claude in about a minute, no terminal required. Once it's connected you can ask it almost anything about your training and health data.

The missing Garmin MCP

Is it actually possible to connect your Garmin to Claude? Yes — and someone already built the easy version.

MissingMCP is a free, open-source gateway between your Garmin Connect account and an AI assistant. It's hosted, so there's no terminal, no install, and no code.

The setup

  1. Copy the MCP URL: https://missingmcp.com/garmin/mcp
  2. In Claude, open your connector settings and add it as a custom connector
  3. Log in with your Garmin Connect account when prompted

That's genuinely the whole thing. No hacker wizardry — your Garmin password is used once to sign in and then discarded, only encrypted tokens are kept, and the entire project is open source if you want to check for yourself.

What you can ask once it's connected

Once the connector is live, Claude can read your training and health history whenever you ask it something. A few that are genuinely useful:

  • "Build me a training schedule to hit [goal] by [date], based on where my data actually shows I am right now"
  • "Analyse my sleep over the last two weeks — what's actually driving the bad nights?"
  • "How has my resting heart rate trended over the last month, and does it line up with my training load?"
  • "Am I overtraining based on the last two weeks?"

The difference versus asking a generic health question is that every answer is grounded in your actual numbers, not a generic template.

One thing worth setting up next

The same connection can run automatically as a scheduled task, not just when you ask. I use it every morning to catch early illness signals before I feel them — the full prompt is here:

Support the person who built this

This is free, open source, and maintained by one person. If you end up using it regularly, buy them a coffee. Tools like this only keep existing when the people using them chip in.

Prefer running it locally instead of the hosted version? There's a different setup for that, using a local server through Claude Desktop:
