What is the Strava MCP Server?

Connect your Strava account to any AI agent to automate your athletic performance tracking and activity orchestration. Strava provides a premier platform for athletes to track their progress, and this integration allows you to retrieve activity metadata, monitor athlete statistics, and explore routes through natural conversation.

What you can do

  • Activity & Workout Orchestration — List all your athletic activities and retrieve detailed metadata, including distance, heart rate, and elevation programmatically.
  • Athlete Performance Monitoring — Access and monitor your athlete statistics and profile metadata to track your progress over time directly from the AI interface.
  • Route & Segment Intelligence — List available routes and starred segments to ensure your training paths are always synchronized via natural language.
  • Club & Social Insight — Access and monitor the clubs you belong to to maintain a clear overview of your athletic community engagement.
  • Data Management — Create and update activities programmatically to ensure your training log is always current and accurate using simple AI commands.

How it works

1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Strava Access Token (OAuth2) from your developer settings
3. Start managing your athletic data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

  • Athletes & Fitness Enthusiasts — quickly retrieve recent workout details and monitor performance stats without switching apps.
  • Coaches & Trainers — automate the retrieval of athlete activity logs and monitor training progress via natural conversation.
  • Data Analysts — streamline the retrieval of workout metadata and monitor segment performance directly within the chat.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I find my Strava Access Token?

Log in to Strava Developers, create an API application, and you will find your Access Token in the settings. Note that you may need to use the OAuth flow to generate a long-lived or refreshed token.

02

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

03

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

04

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

05

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.

06

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
