Privacy-first, unofficial Fitbit MCP server for AI health, sleep, activity and heart-rate agents.

VerifiedSTDIODesktop onlyLocation & LifestyleData & Analytics

Overview

AI-generated overview

Unofficial local Fitbit MCP server that lets an AI assistant read your activity, sleep, heart-rate, HRV, SpO2, weight and nutrition data.

What you can do
  • Check connection status, capabilities, privacy audit and cache state, and manage OAuth (auth URL, code exchange, revoke)
  • Read profile and list paired devices
  • Read daily activity, activity logs and activity details
  • Read sleep days and sleep logs, plus heart-rate days, series and intraday samples
  • Read HRV, SpO2 and breathing-rate days
  • Read weight and body composition, food and water logs
When to use it
Useful when you want an agent to reason about your own Fitbit activity, sleep and heart context without copying numbers out of the Fitbit app, for example daily briefs, weekly trend reviews or intraday heart-rate questions.
Requirements
Node.js 20+ and a local process (npx package). A Fitbit app registered at the Fitbit developer site with redirect URI plus FITBIT_CLIENT_ID, FITBIT_CLIENT_SECRET and FITBIT_REDIRECT_URI (or the setup command, which stores them in a local config file). A browser-based OAuth authorization step. Optional settings include FITBIT_PRIVACY_MODE, FITBIT_CACHE, FITBIT_CACHE_PATH, FITBIT_TOKEN_PATH and FITBIT_NO_CACHE. Intraday heart rate needs app-level approval from Fitbit.
Before you install
It handles sensitive health data and asks for a Fitbit OAuth client secret (FITBIT_CLIENT_SECRET); the setup command stores it in a local config file, and tokens are written to a local tokens file. Raw payloads are opt-in via FITBIT_PRIVACY_MODE=raw, and the README warns not to paste raw health payloads publicly. It is unofficial and not affiliated with Fitbit or Google, and the platform is migrating to the Google Health API, so breakage is possible. It is not a medical device and gives no…

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Fitbitmcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

Fitbit MCP

Give your AI agent your Fitbit activity, sleep, heart and HRV data — locally.
Local-first MCP server — tokens never leave your machine.

[npm version] [npm downloads] [License MIT] [Site]

[GitHub stars] [Built for MCP] [Hermes one-command setup] [Fitbit]

⚡ One-command install with Delx Wellness for Hermes: npx -y delx-wellness-hermes setup — preconfigures this connector and the other 8 in a dedicated Hermes profile.

Or wire it standalone into Claude Desktop / Cursor / ChatGPT Desktop — see the install section below.


HTTP (v2 stateless)

Default is stdio. Optional Streamable HTTP — no session id, JSON responses, loopback only:

bash
npx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial --http# GET  http://127.0.0.1:3000/health# POST http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp   (sessionless)

Env: FITBIT_MCP_HOST, FITBIT_MCP_PORT, FITBIT_MCP_TRANSPORT=http.

Local-first MCP server that connects AI agents to your Fitbit activity, sleep, heart-rate, HRV, SpO2 and weight data.

Unofficial project. Not affiliated with, endorsed by or supported by Fitbit or Google. Use this only with your own Fitbit account and in line with the Fitbit Web API terms.

Platform migration risk: Fitbit is migrating to the Google Health API. OAuth, base URL, scopes and reconnection flows may change in 2026. Treat any breakage as platform drift and check the Fitbit Web API docs before reporting it as a bug.

Built by David Mosiah for people who use Claude, Cursor, Hermes, OpenClaw or other MCP-compatible agents to think about activity, sleep and heart context — without copy-pasting numbers from the Fitbit app.

Part of Delx Wellness, a registry of local-first wellness MCP connectors.

Why this exists

Fitbit (now under Google) has years of wearable data — daily activity, sleep stages, intraday heart-rate, HRV, SpO2, breathing rate, weight, food and water logs. But its API uses OAuth 2.0 with per-scope authorization and intraday access that varies by app, and the platform is mid-migration to the Google Health API.

This package handles the OAuth dance locally, normalizes responses, and exposes Fitbit through the Model Context Protocol. Tokens never leave your machine. Privacy-mode defaults keep raw payloads opt-in.

Setup in 60 seconds

You'll need a Fitbit app (create one here) with redirect URI http://127.0.0.1:3000/callback.

bash
npx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial setup    # interactive: paste client id + secretnpx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial auth     # opens browser, captures the OAuth codenpx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial doctor   # verifies you're ready

Recommended scopes:

text
activity heartrate profile settings sleep weight nutrition

Then add this to your MCP client config:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "fitbit": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "fitbit-mcp-unofficial"]    }  }}

For Claude Desktop, run setup --client claude and the snippet is written for you.

Try it with your agent

Three things to ask first:

text
Use fitbit_connection_status to check setup, then run fitbit_daily_summary.Give me a 5-line operating brief for today.
text
Call fitbit_weekly_summary with response_format=json. Identify my biggestsleep/activity bottleneck and give me a next-week plan.
text
Use the fitbit_intraday_investigation prompt for date=today, detail_level=1min.Don't claim anything Fitbit can't actually prove.

Data availability

This package uses the official Fitbit Web API. When this README says raw, it means the upstream Fitbit JSON for a supported endpoint — not raw device sensor streams.

DataAvailableNotes

Tools

Start with these:

  • fitbit_connection_status — verify local setup before calling Fitbit
  • fitbit_data_inventory — inventory supported data domains, scopes, privacy modes and recommended first calls without calling Fitbit APIs.
  • fitbit_daily_summary — readiness, activity, sleep and heart context for today
  • fitbit_weekly_summary — scorecard, comparison vs prior week, next-week plan

Auth & diagnostics

  • fitbit_capabilities, fitbit_agent_manifest, fitbit_privacy_audit, fitbit_cache_status
  • fitbit_get_auth_url, fitbit_exchange_code, fitbit_revoke_access

Profile & devices

  • fitbit_get_profile, fitbit_list_devices

Activity

  • fitbit_get_activity_day, fitbit_list_activities, fitbit_get_activity
  • List calls accept either after or before, matching Fitbit's mutually exclusive cursor contract. Offset ISO inputs retain their written calendar date and invalid cursors fail before HTTP.

Sleep

  • fitbit_get_sleep_day, fitbit_list_sleep

Heart & physiology (each takes a date)

  • fitbit_get_heart_day, fitbit_heart_series, fitbit_get_heart_intraday
  • fitbit_get_hrv_day, fitbit_get_spo2_day, fitbit_get_breathing_rate_day

Body & nutrition (each takes a date)

  • fitbit_get_weight_day, fitbit_get_food_day, fitbit_get_water_day

Prompts

  • fitbit_daily_checkin — practical daily health and activity check-in
  • fitbit_weekly_review — review trends across activity, sleep and heart context
  • fitbit_intraday_investigation — investigate one day's intraday heart-rate samples

Resources

  • fitbit://capabilities, fitbit://agent-manifest
  • fitbit://summary/daily, fitbit://summary/weekly

Privacy & security

  • OAuth tokens are stored in ~/.fitbit-mcp/tokens.json with 0600 permissions and are never returned by tools.
  • The server never prints access or refresh tokens.
  • FITBIT_PRIVACY_MODE defaults to structured. Raw Fitbit JSON is opt-in via raw mode or per-call override.
  • Structured mode preserves complete upstream physiological records and response metadata while removing GPS and secret-bearing fields.
  • Health data is sensitive — do not paste raw payloads publicly.
  • This is not medical advice. The server exposes user-authorized data for personal AI workflows, not diagnosis or treatment.

Configuration

setup writes most of these into ~/.fitbit-mcp/config.json (0600). Manual env override is supported:

bash
FITBIT_CLIENT_ID=…FITBIT_CLIENT_SECRET=…FITBIT_REDIRECT_URI=http://127.0.0.1:3000/callback
# OptionalFITBIT_SCOPES="activity heartrate profile settings sleep weight nutrition"FITBIT_PRIVACY_MODE=structured        # summary | structured | rawFITBIT_CACHE=sqlite                   # retained setting; authenticated payload cache/fallback disabled

Authenticated responses bypass both payload caches and offline fallback. Existing SQLite entries are preserved, not inspected or removed by cache status; errors propagate. Anonymous HTTP caching remains available.

Hermes / remote setup

bash
npx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial setup --client hermes --no-authnpx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial auth                       # run locally if browser auth is needednpx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial doctor --client hermeshermes mcp test fitbit

After Hermes config changes, use /reload-mcp or hermes mcp test fitbit. Don't restart the gateway for normal data access.

If browser OAuth has to happen on a different machine than Hermes, run auth locally and copy ~/.fitbit-mcp/tokens.json to the server with chmod 600.

Requirements

  • Node.js 20+
  • A Fitbit app at https://dev.fitbit.com/apps with redirect URI http://127.0.0.1:3000/callback
  • Intraday heart-rate access requires the Fitbit app to be approved for intraday data (varies per app)

Development

bash
git clone https://github.com/davidmosiah/fitbit-mcp.gitcd fitbit-mcpnpm installnpm testnpm run build

Test with MCP Inspector:

bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node dist/index.js

Skill or MCP

Same package, two doors. MCP registers tools on stdio/HTTP. The skill can drive the same tools through the CLI when the client has no MCP:

bash
npx -y fitbit-mcp-unofficial call fitbit_connection_status --json '{}'

Copy skill/SKILL.md into your agent skills dir.
