About Fitbit MCP Server
Connect your Fitbit account to any AI agent and gain instant access to your comprehensive health and fitness data through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Fitbit tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 14 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Activity Tracking — Retrieve daily activity summaries including steps, distance, calories, and active minutes for any date
- Sleep Analysis — Access detailed sleep logs with stages (deep, light, REM, awake) for individual nights or time series trends
- Heart Rate Monitoring — Query resting heart rate, intraday zones, and historical cardiac trends
- SpO2 & Breathing — View blood oxygen saturation levels and breathing rate data
- Body Composition — Track weight measurements and cardio fitness scores over time
- Nutrition Logs — Access water intake and food logging data for dietary tracking
- Device Management — Check connected Fitbit devices and their sync status
The Fitbit MCP Server exposes 14 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
