What is the Strava Training MCP Server?

Connect Strava Training to any AI agent and unlock deep performance analysis from your Strava data — activity details, time-series streams, heart rate/power zones, segment efforts, lap splits, and lifetime athlete statistics.

What you can do

  • Activity Details — Full metrics: distance, time, elevation, HR, power, speed, weather, gear
  • Activity Streams — Raw GPS, heart rate, power, cadence, altitude, speed, temperature, grade data
  • Activity Zones — Heart rate and power zone distribution for training intensity analysis
  • Activity Laps — Auto-split lap data with pace, distance, and elevation per split
  • Segment Efforts — Find, compare, and analyze all efforts on any segment with detailed metrics
  • Segment Streams — Elevation and grade profiles along segments for previewing difficulty
  • Segment Details — Distance, elevation, grade, effort count, and personal records
  • Athlete Statistics — Lifetime and recent totals for runs, rides, and all activities
  • Athlete Zones — Personal heart rate and power zone configurations
  • Gear Tracking — Equipment mileage, models, and primary gear assignments

How it works

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

Who is this for?

  • Endurance Athletes — analyze training volume, zone distribution, and segment PRs to optimize training plans
  • Coaches — review athlete streams, zone data, and segment efforts to provide data-driven coaching
  • Cyclists — analyze power data, segment efforts, and gear mileage for performance and maintenance planning
  • Runners — track pace consistency through lap splits, elevation profiles, and heart rate trends

Built-in capabilities (12)

get_activity

The activityId is the numeric ID from Strava activity URLs (e.g., strava.com/activities/12345678 → 12345678). Use this for deep analysis of any workout, ride, or run. Get detailed information about a specific Strava activity

get_activity_laps

Each lap includes distance, moving time, average speed, elevation gain, and pace. GPS devices and Strava auto-split activities into laps (typically ~1km or ~1mi). Use this to analyze pace consistency, identify fast/slow sections, and compare splits within a single activity. Get lap/split data for a Strava activity

get_activity_streams

The "types" parameter is comma-separated stream types: "time", "distance", "latlng", "altitude", "velocity_smooth", "heartrate", "cadence", "watts", "temp", "moving", "grade_smooth". Example: "heartrate,watts,velocity_smooth" for HR, power, and speed data. Each stream returns an array of values with corresponding timestamps. Use this for detailed performance analysis, visualization, or export. Get raw time-series data streams from a Strava activity (GPS, heart rate, power, cadence, altitude, speed, etc)

get_activity_zones

Requires activity ID. This data helps understand training intensity and whether the workout targeted the correct zones. Only available for activities with heart rate or power data. Summit/subscription feature. Get heart rate and power zone distribution for a Strava activity

get_athlete_stats

Use the athlete's Strava numeric ID. Returns recent_run_totals, recent_ride_totals, all_run_totals, all_ride_totals. Great for performance overview and progress tracking. Get consolidated activity statistics for any Strava athlete

get_athlete_zones

Requires profile:read_all scope. Use this to understand training zones for zone-based analysis of activities and efforts. Get the authenticated athlete's custom heart rate and power zones

get_gear

The gear ID is found in activity data or athlete profile. Use this to track equipment mileage, plan maintenance, or analyze performance with specific gear. Get details about a piece of equipment (bike, shoes) tracked in Strava

get_segment

The segment ID is found in Strava segment URLs. Use this to discover segment characteristics before attempting it or to compare segments. Get details of a Strava segment including distance, elevation, grade, and leaderboards

get_segment_effort

Includes elapsed time, distance, average speed, heart rate, power, start date, and activity reference. The effort ID is found in segment effort listings or activity details. Use this to analyze specific KOM/QOM attempts and compare efforts on the same segment. Get details of a specific segment effort (KOM/QOM/PR attempt)

get_segment_effort_streams

Same format as activity streams but limited to the segment portion. The "types" parameter is comma-separated: "time", "distance", "latlng", "altitude", "velocity_smooth", "heartrate", "cadence", "watts". Use this for granular analysis of segment performance. Get time-series data streams for a specific segment effort

get_segment_streams

Useful for previewing a segment's difficulty profile before attempting it. The "types" parameter accepts "distance", "altitude", "grade_smooth". Use this to understand elevation changes and steepness patterns along a segment. Get time-series data streams for a Strava segment (elevation profile, grade, etc)

list_segment_efforts

Filter by athlete_id (required), optionally segment_id to get efforts on a specific segment, and date range with start_date_local and end_date_local (ISO 8601 format). Use this to find PRs, analyze progress on segments over time, or compare multiple efforts on the same segment. List all segment efforts for an athlete, optionally filtered by segment and date range

Why VS Code Copilot?

GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Strava Training data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 12 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.

  • VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor

  • Project-scoped MCP configs (.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access

  • Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop

  • GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

What data streams are available for activities?

Available streams include: time, distance, latlng (GPS coordinates), altitude, velocity_smooth (speed), heartrate, cadence, watts (power), temp (temperature), moving (moving flag), and grade_smooth (incline %). Request specific streams with comma-separated types, e.g., "heartrate,watts,velocity_smooth". Not all streams are available for every activity — it depends on the recording device.

02

What are activity zones and how are they calculated?

Activity zones show the time spent in each heart rate zone (Z1-Z5) or power zone during an activity. Zones are based on the athlete's personal zone configuration (set in Strava settings). Zone analysis reveals training intensity — whether a workout was aerobic (Z1-Z2), threshold (Z3), or anaerobic (Z4-Z5). This data requires a heart rate monitor or power meter.

03

How do I find my athlete ID on Strava?

Your athlete ID is the numeric portion of your Strava profile URL. For example, from https://www.strava.com/athletes/12345678, your athlete ID is 12345678. You can also get it from the get_athlete tool in the Strava Planning or Strava Social MCP servers.

04

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.

05

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.

06

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.

07

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.

08

MCP tools not available

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