Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| apple_health_agent_manifestB | Machine-readable install, runtime and privacy guidance for AI agents operating Apple Health export data. |
| apple_health_capabilitiesB | Explain supported Apple Health export data, unavailable live HealthKit access, privacy modes and recommended agent workflow. |
| apple_health_connection_statusA | Check local Apple Health export path, Node version, privacy mode and Hermes client posture without reading full export data. |
| apple_health_quickstartA | Personalized 3-step setup walkthrough for the human user. Adapts to current state (is APPLE_HEALTH_EXPORT_PATH set? does the export file exist and parse?). Call this first when the user asks 'how do I connect Apple Health?'. This connector is local-first and never touches Apple servers or cloud APIs. |
| apple_health_demoA | Returns realistic example payloads of apple_health_daily_summary, apple_health_weekly_summary, and apple_health_wellness_context with Apple-Watch-style values, so agents see the contract before parsing a real export. |
| apple_health_privacy_auditA | Return the local privacy and export-file posture without revealing health data. |
| apple_health_list_recordsA | List bounded records from a local Apple Health export.xml. Use type/start/end filters to keep output small. |
| apple_health_list_workoutsC | List bounded workout records from a local Apple Health export.xml. |
| apple_health_export_freshnessA | Check how recently the local Apple Health export file/directory was written. Returns mtime, days_since_export, an is_stale flag, and a recommendation. Considered stale if the export is older than 30 days, or older than 7 days with no recent records (the inventory's latest-record date is also older than 7 days). Use before relying on apple_health_daily_summary or apple_health_wellness_context to confirm the export is fresh. |
| apple_health_data_inventoryA | Scan the local Apple Health export once and report available record types, workouts, date coverage, freshness and safe next calls. |
| apple_health_daily_summaryA | Build a daily wellness summary from local Apple Health export data. It is not live HealthKit and not medical advice. |
| apple_health_wellness_contextB | Normalize local Apple Health export sleep, workout and activity data into the shared wellness_context shape for recommendation engines. |
| apple_health_weekly_summaryB | Build a weekly wellness summary from local Apple Health export data. It is not live HealthKit and not medical advice. |
| apple_health_profile_getA | Read the shared Delx Wellness profile from ~/.delx-wellness/profile.json. Returns preferred name, goals, devices, training/nutrition/exercise/agent preferences and safety flags. NEVER contains OAuth tokens or API secrets — this connector is local-export and has no cloud auth, but the profile contract is the same across every Delx Wellness MCP. Read-only. |
| apple_health_profile_updateA | Persist a partial patch to ~/.delx-wellness/profile.json. Requires explicit_user_intent=true (otherwise returns USER_ACTION_REQUIRED). Rejects secret-like fields (oauth, token, secret, password, cookie, refresh, api_key, session) at write time. Use to record preferred name, goals, devices, training context, nutrition context, exercise preferences, agent preferences, and safety flags. |
| apple_health_clear_incremental_cacheA | Manually clear the incremental import cache at ~/.apple-health-mcp/incremental-cache.json. The cache tracks the latest parsed timestamp per HealthKit category so subsequent |
| apple_health_reimportA | Re-scan the configured watch folder (APPLE_HEALTH_WATCH_PATH or |
| apple_health_onboardingA | Return the 11-question onboarding flow plus the current profile state and missing fields. Read-only — does NOT persist anything. Pair with apple_health_profile_update once the user answers. Cross-connector: the same profile is shared by every Delx Wellness MCP (whoop, garmin, oura, fitbit, strava, polar, withings, apple-health, samsung-health, google-health, nourish, cycle-coach, cgm, air). |
