Documentation

StressZero MCP Server

MCP server for the StressZero Intelligence API — burnout prevention self-assessment for AI agents, across 3 dimensions (physical, emotional, effectiveness).

Enable Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, n8n, and any MCP-compatible client to help users self-assess their workload signals in real-time conversations.

⚠️ Not a medical device. All scores are indicative, based on self-reported answers. This server provides no diagnosis, no screening, and no clinical triage. Persistent exhaustion warrants a doctor — the tools say so in their outputs.

      }
    }
  }

      }
    }
  }

      "args": ["-y", "stresszero-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "STRESSZERO_API_KEY": "sz_live_your_key_here"

3. Use it

Ask Claude: "Check my burnout risk. My sleep quality is 40/100, motivation is 55/100, and productivity is 35/100. I work 60 hours/week as an entrepreneur."

Claude will automatically call quick_burnout_check and return your score with recommendations.
