About Metabolic Energy Estimator MCP Server
Autonomous health and fitness agents demand uncompromising metabolic accuracy. When standard LLMs attempt to estimate calories burned for a specific activity, they guess wildly. The Metabolic Energy Estimator MCP empowers your AI Agent by delegating this logic to a deterministic engine utilizing scientifically validated MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) values.
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Metabolic Energy Estimator data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 4 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
Core Capabilities
- Agentic Calorie Estimation: Search a native, offline catalog of over 80 specific physical activities and calculate exact calories burned based on the user's exact weight and duration.
- TDEE & BMR Engine: Implements the rigorous Mifflin-St Jeor equation to establish the user's Basal Metabolic Rate and Total Daily Energy Expenditure without sending health metrics to the cloud.
- Weight Loss Projection: Compute the exact number of days and weeks required to hit a target weight given a precise daily caloric deficit, complete with safety warnings.
The Metabolic Energy Estimator MCP Server exposes 4 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to VS Code Copilot in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
All 4 Metabolic Energy Estimator tools available for VS Code Copilot
When VS Code Copilot connects to Metabolic Energy Estimator through Vinkius, your AI agent gets direct access to every tool listed below — spanning metabolic-calculation, fitness-tracking, tdee, and more. Every call runs in a secure, isolated environment with full audit visibility. Beyond a simple connection, you get real-time monitoring of agent activity, enterprise governance, and optimized token usage.
Calculate tdee on Metabolic Energy Estimator
Calculates Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) and Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation
Calculate weight loss projection on Metabolic Energy Estimator
1kg of fat = 7700 calories. Projects how many days and weeks it will take to reach a target weight based on a daily calorie deficit
Estimate calories burned on Metabolic Energy Estimator
You MUST provide an activityId found via search_activity_catalog. Calculates exactly how many calories are burned doing a specific physical activity based on weight and time
Search activity catalog on Metabolic Energy Estimator
Searches the deterministic local catalog for activities and their exact MET values
