WHOOP MCP server

Let your AI read your WHOOP recovery, sleep, strain and HRV data so it can brief you on your day.

This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to your WHOOP account. Once it is set up, you can ask your AI about your recovery, sleep and training load without opening the WHOOP app and copying numbers by hand. It is handy for anyone who uses ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor to plan training, rest or their workday around how their body is doing.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. It cannot see your WHOOP data. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill, in this case the ability to talk to WHOOP. You install it once, connect your WHOOP account, and after that your AI can look up your recovery, sleep and strain numbers whenever you ask.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something like how your recovery looks today. The AI passes that request to this helper program running on your computer. The helper talks to WHOOP using your own account login, fetches the numbers, and hands them back to the AI. The AI then turns those numbers into a short answer, a summary or a plan for you. Your login tokens stay on your machine, not on someone else's server.

Flow diagram: you ask your AI “How does my recovery look today?”, on your own computer the WHOOP MCP server works with WHOOP, and you get back A short brief for your day.

Try asking your AI

“Use whoop_connection_status to check setup, then run whoop_daily_summary and give me a 5-line operating brief for today.”
“Call whoop_weekly_summary and tell me my top bottleneck and a sleep and training plan for next week.”
“What was my recovery score and HRV this morning, and how does it compare to my recent baseline?”
“Show me my last three workouts with strain and heart rate zone minutes.”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat: short briefs, scorecards, lists of recoveries, sleeps, cycles or workouts, and simple numbers like recovery score, HRV, resting heart rate and sleep hours. You can ask for a friendly written summary or for the raw structured data if you want to see every field. Nothing changes inside WHOOP itself. It only reads your data.

Before you start

What you need

A WHOOP account and a WHOOP Developer app (you create one on the WHOOP developer site, it is free)
The client id and secret from that developer app
Node.js installed on your computer
An MCP-compatible AI app such as Claude Desktop, Cursor or ChatGPT Desktop

Good to know

This is an unofficial project and it reads your private health data, so only connect it with your own WHOOP account and be careful about sharing any captured output.

Install it with your AI

Add WHOOP MCP server to your AI, no technical skills needed

You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.

Sign in to get the install prompt

Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check WHOOP MCP server, install it and connect it for them, step by step. You don't need any technical skills: you copy, paste and answer a few questions. Your connected AI can also find and install any of the 4,066 MCP servers here for you.
