An MCP server that runs locally and hands your AI agent your own Google Health API data — from Fitbit trackers, Pixel Watch and supported partner sources — through OAuth.
- Install in one command —
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp setup - Run it in Claude Desktop · Claude Code · Cursor · Windsurf · Hermes · OpenClaw — see client examples.
- On your machine — OAuth tokens are stored locally with
0600permissions and are never returned by any tool (privacy). - Read-only by default — every shipped data tool is a read. Writes are a gated, opt-in, dry-run-first design that is not enabled.
Beta status: Google Health API is available to developers but the surface is still moving. Because Google's release notes keep listing scope and data-type changes after launch, this connector remains in beta and steers testers toward safe read-only validation before any production use.
Independent, community-built connector — no affiliation with, endorsement from or support by Google, Fitbit or Alphabet. Not a medical device or medical advice; treat the data as trend context only.
⚡ Quick Connect
Prerequisite: a Google Cloud OAuth client (type: Desktop) with the Google Health API enabled and the redirect
http://127.0.0.1:3000/callbackregistered — details in Install.
Step 1 — Install & authorize (once):
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp setup # guided: Google Cloud OAuth client + scopes
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp auth # browser OAuth — tokens stay on your machine
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkup # ✓ verifies everything is ready
<details> <summary><b>🔑 First time? Get your Google Client ID & Secret (~2 min)</b></summary>
setup asks for a Client ID and Client Secret. You create these once, for free, in Google Cloud:
- New project — open console.cloud.google.com/projectcreate, name it (e.g.
health-mcp), click Create, then select it. - Enable the API — open the Google Health API page and click Enable.
- Consent screen — go to OAuth consent screen, choose External, and fill in the required app name / email fields. Under Test users, add your own Google account — skip this and sign-in fails with
403: access_denied. - Create the client — go to Credentials → + Create credentials → OAuth client ID → Application type: Desktop app → Create.
- Copy the Client ID (ends in
…apps.googleusercontent.com) and the Client secret, then paste each one whensetupprompts you.
Redirect URI: Desktop-app clients allow the
http://127.0.0.1:3000/callbackloopback automatically — you don't register it anywhere. Just press Enter to accept the default whensetupasks. For every othersetupprompt (scope preset, privacy mode), pressing Enter picks a sensible default.
</details>
Step 2 — Connect your app:
<details> <summary><b>Claude Code</b></summary>
claude mcp add google-health -- npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp
</details>
<details> <summary><b>Claude Desktop</b></summary>
Settings → Developer → Edit Config, then add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"google_health": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "google-health-fitbit-mcp"]
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop — the tools appear under the 🔌 connectors menu.
</details>
<details> <summary><b>Cursor</b></summary>
Add the same mcpServers block to .cursor/mcp.json (per-project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global), or use Settings → MCP → Add new server.
{
"mcpServers": {
"google_health": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "google-health-fitbit-mcp"]
}
}
}
</details>
<details> <summary><b>Windsurf</b></summary>
Add the same mcpServers block to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
</details>
<details> <summary><b>Hermes</b></summary>
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp setup --client hermes # writes the Hermes config for you
Then reload with /reload-mcp or hermes mcp test google_health.
</details>
Step 3 — Test it. Ask your agent:
Run google_health_connection_status and tell me if I'm connected.
Why this exists
The Google Health API is the successor to the Fitbit Web API: new OAuth, new base URL (https://health.googleapis.com), a streamlined endpoint schema, standardized kebab-case data types, reconciled cross-source streams and daily/physical-time rollups.
It gives agents a clean path to explore the API, verify their setup, sign in locally and pull data — with no need to paste tokens into prompts or agent configs.
Try it with your agent
Three good opening prompts, built around tools this connector genuinely ships:
Check my setup with google_health_connection_status, then call
google_health_data_inventory and tell me which Google Health
domains and scopes I've granted.
Pull today's google_health_daily_summary, then google_health_weekly_summary.
Keep observed data separate from any suggestions, and stay non-medical.
List my paired devices with google_health_list_paired_devices and tell me
which device is producing my sleep and heart-rate data.

Naming rules agents need:
- Endpoints use kebab-case data types:
steps,daily-resting-heart-rate. - Filters use snake_case field paths:
sleep.interval.civil_start_time,heart_rate.sample_time.physical_time. - Source families:
all-sources,google-wearables,google-sources.
Call google_health_list_data_types for the full catalog with units, scopes and which verbs (list/reconcile/rollup) each type supports.
Privacy & what runs offline
- OAuth tokens live on disk at
~/.google-health-mcp/tokens.json, locked down to0600permissions. - Client secrets go in
~/.google-health-mcp/config.jsonor theGOOGLE_HEALTH_*environment variables. - No tool ever hands back an access token, refresh token or client secret; error output is redacted too.
- The default privacy mode is
GOOGLE_HEALTH_PRIVACY_MODE=structured;summarystrips identifiers further, andrawis an explicit opt-in for debugging. - GPS/route data is treated as sensitive and redacted unless explicitly requested.
supportprints a copy-paste support bundle for GitHub issues — always redacted, never contains tokens, secrets, local paths or health measurements.support --feedback --jsonprints an anonymous setup-feedback bundle for beta testers (guide).coverage --live --jsonprints only redacted data-type status and point-count buckets — never raw Google Health payloads (guide).
Install
Set up a Google Cloud OAuth client (type: Desktop), turn on the Google Health API, and register the local redirect:
http://127.0.0.1:3000/callback
Then run:
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp setup --scope-preset full
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp auth
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkup
Scope presets
Presets keep OAuth consent easy to reason about — request only what your use case needs:
| Preset | Grants |
|---|---|
basic |
profile + settings |
activity |
basic + activity/fitness + health metrics |
sleep |
basic + sleep |
heart |
basic + health metrics + ECG + irregular-rhythm notifications |
full |
all recommended read-only scopes (default) |
nutrition-write |
opt-in nutrition write scope — the only preset with any write capability; no write tool ships yet |
Advanced users can pass --scopes with an explicit space/comma-separated scope list.
If setup gets stuck
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkup --fix # repairs local config/token permissions (chmod 600 where supported)
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkup --live # hits read-only identity/profile/settings endpoints to confirm the API responds
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp coverage --live --json # redacted read-only data-type coverage report
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp support # shareable support bundle, stripped of tokens/secrets/measurements
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp support --feedback --json # anonymous setup feedback bundle
MCP client config
Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf (see examples/):
{
"mcpServers": {
"google_health": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "google-health-fitbit-mcp"]
}
}
}
Hermes
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp setup --client hermes --no-auth
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp auth
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkup --client hermes
Once the config changes, run /reload-mcp or hermes mcp test google_health — there's no need to restart the gateway just to read data.
HTTP transport (optional)
The default transport is stdio. A local Streamable-HTTP transport is available for clients that need it:
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp --http # serves http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp (+ /health)
Configuration
| Environment variable | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
GOOGLE_HEALTH_CLIENT_ID |
Google Cloud OAuth client ID | — (or local config) |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_CLIENT_SECRET |
OAuth client secret (prefer local config over MCP client config) | — (or local config) |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_REDIRECT_URI |
Registered redirect URI | — (or local config) |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_TOKEN_PATH |
Token file location | ~/.google-health-mcp/tokens.json |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_PRIVACY_MODE |
summary | structured | raw |
structured |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_CACHE |
Optional SQLite response cache (true/sqlite) |
disabled |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_CACHE_PATH |
SQLite cache location | ~/.google-health-mcp/cache.sqlite |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_NO_CACHE |
Bypass the in-memory HTTP cache (60s TTL, GET-only) | unset |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_MCP_TRANSPORT |
stdio | http |
stdio |
GOOGLE_HEALTH_MCP_HOST / GOOGLE_HEALTH_MCP_PORT |
HTTP transport bind address | 127.0.0.1 / 3000 |
Reliability built in: every Google call goes through retry middleware (exponential backoff + jitter, honors Retry-After, retries 408/429/5xx) and a 60-second GET-only response cache. Multi-day summaries limit request concurrency to stay under rate limits.

Beta testers wanted
Right now the most valuable thing you can contribute is hands-on setup feedback from real Fitbit, Pixel Watch, Android and Google Health API accounts.
If you have a real account to test with:
- Run
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp checkupand let us know whether the OAuth flow reads clearly. - Run
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp support --feedback --jsonand drop the anonymous bundle into a GitHub issue. - Once OAuth is done, run
npx -y google-health-fitbit-mcp coverage --live --jsonand post the redacted coverage report after you've reviewed it. - Exercise
google_health_connection_status,google_health_data_inventoryandgoogle_health_daily_summaryfrom inside your MCP client. - File an issue if you hit missing data types, unclear setup steps, client-specific friction or privacy concerns.
- Please keep OAuth tokens, client secrets, local paths and personal health measurements out of public issues.
