Whoop MCP

Local MCP server that exposes Whoop recovery, sleep, and strain data to AI agents

Whoop MCP Server

MCP server that exposes your Whoop fitness data (recovery, sleep, strain, workouts) to Claude for use as a daily training coach.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+
  • A Whoop Developer account with a registered application
  • Your Whoop app's Client ID and Client Secret

Whoop Developer Dashboard Setup

  1. Go to developer.whoop.com and sign in
  2. Create a new application
  3. Set the Redirect URI to: http://localhost:8080/callback
  4. Enable these scopes: read:recovery, read:cycles, read:sleep, read:profile, read:body_measurement
    • Note: read:workout and offline may not be available on all developer apps. The server handles missing scopes gracefully.
  5. Note your Client ID and Client Secret

Installation

cd whoop-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt

Authorization (One-Time Setup)

Export your app credentials and run the setup script:

export WHOOP_CLIENT_ID="your-client-id"
export WHOOP_CLIENT_SECRET="your-client-secret"
python scripts/setup_auth.py

This opens a browser to Whoop's authorization page. After you approve, tokens are encrypted and stored at ~/.whoop_mcp/. If the offline scope was granted, tokens refresh automatically. Otherwise, re-run this script when the token expires.

Claude Desktop / Cowork MCP Config

Add this to your Claude MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whoop": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/whoop-mcp/src/whoop_server.py"],
      "env": {
        "WHOOP_CLIENT_ID": "your-client-id",
        "WHOOP_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-client-secret"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace /absolute/path/to/whoop-mcp with the actual path on your machine.

Example Prompts

Once connected, you can ask Claude things like:

  • "What was my recovery yesterday?"
  • "How much strain did I accumulate last week?"
  • "Am I trending toward overtraining?"
  • "How has my HRV changed over the past two weeks?"
  • "What were my sleep stages last night?"
  • "Compare my strain to my recovery over the past 7 days."
  • "Should I do a hard workout today?"

Training Coach Workflow

Start each session by calling whoop_get_training_summary for an overview of recovery status, recent strain load, sleep quality, and a training readiness assessment.

Token Storage

Tokens are stored encrypted at ~/.whoop_mcp/:

  • .encryption_key — Fernet encryption key (chmod 600)
  • tokens.enc — Encrypted OAuth tokens (chmod 600)
  • Directory permissions: chmod 700

If token refresh fails, re-run python scripts/setup_auth.py.
