Hevy MCP Server

A single-user remote MCP server that exposes the Hevy workout API to Claude (and any OAuth-capable MCP client). It speaks the full MCP protocol over Streamable HTTP at /mcp and is protected by a minimal, stateless OAuth 2.1 flow, so it can be added as a custom connector in the Claude app — including on mobile, on the go.

  • Runtime: Bun or Cloudflare Workers — the same code runs on both, via Hono + @hono/mcp.

  • Auth: single-user OAuth 2.1 (PKCE S256), all state held in signed JWTs — no database.

  • Hevy: a single api-key from an environment variable / secret.

Why OAuth (and not just a token)?

As of 2026 the Claude app's custom-connector UI only accepts OAuth — it does not let you paste a static bearer token or custom header. So this server implements a tiny single-user OAuth provider: when you connect, Claude sends you to a login page where you enter MCP_PASSWORD; on success it receives an access token (a signed JWT) that it then presents to /mcp. Nothing is persisted — the password gates the flow and PKCE + JWT signatures secure it. Because the server supports Dynamic Client Registration, you do not need to fill in any Client ID / Client Secret in Claude — just the server URL.

Prerequisites

  • A Hevy account with API access — the developer API key lives in the Hevy app under Settings → Developer and requires a Hevy Pro subscription.

  • For local development / Bun deploys: Bun ≥ 1.1 (curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash).

  • For Cloudflare deploys: a Cloudflare account and Node.js ≥ 22 (Wrangler requires it). Bun is not needed on Workers.

  • A public HTTPS URL to deploy to (Coolify/Docker host or Cloudflare). The Claude app connector requires HTTPS — localhost works only for local testing with the MCP Inspector.

Tools

All ~22 Hevy endpoints, read + write:

  • Workouts: list_workouts, get_workout, get_workout_count, get_workout_events, create_workout, update_workout

  • Routines: list_routines, get_routine, create_routine, update_routine

  • Routine folders: list_routine_folders, get_routine_folder, create_routine_folder

  • Exercise templates: list_exercise_templates, get_exercise_template, create_exercise_template

  • Exercise history: get_exercise_history

  • Body measurements: list_body_measurements, get_body_measurement, create_body_measurement, update_body_measurement

  • User: get_user_info

Configuration

Variable

Description

HEVY_API_KEY

Your Hevy API key (Hevy app → Settings → Developer; requires Hevy Pro).

MCP_PASSWORD

The password you type on the OAuth login page when connecting Claude.

JWT_SECRET

Random ≥32-char secret for signing JWTs. Generate with openssl rand -hex 32.

PUBLIC_URL

Public HTTPS base URL (no trailing slash). Must match the deployed domain.

PORT

Port to listen on (default 3000). Ignored on Cloudflare Workers.

Run locally (Bun)

bun install
cp .env.example .env     # then edit values
bun run dev              # or: bun run start

Then point an MCP client at http://localhost:3000/mcp, e.g. the inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

It discovers the OAuth metadata, opens the login page (enter MCP_PASSWORD), and then lets you list and call tools.

Deploy: Docker (Coolify or any host)

The included Dockerfile runs on oven/bun and has a built-in /health healthcheck.

Generic Docker:

docker build -t hevy-mcp .
docker run -p 3000:3000 \
  -e HEVY_API_KEY=... \
  -e MCP_PASSWORD=... \
  -e JWT_SECRET="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  -e PUBLIC_URL=https://hevy-mcp.example.com \
  hevy-mcp

Put it behind a reverse proxy (Caddy/nginx/Traefik) that terminates TLS, and set PUBLIC_URL to the public HTTPS address.

Coolify:

  1. Create a new resource from this repo (Dockerfile build). Exposed port: 3000.

  2. Set the environment variables above. Set PUBLIC_URL to the domain Coolify assigns after it's assigned (Traefik provisions TLS automatically) — it must match exactly.

  3. Health check path: /health.

  4. Deploy.

Deploy: Cloudflare Workers

The same entry point runs on Workers (env comes from the request binding, not process.env; nodejs_compat is enabled in wrangler.jsonc).

  1. Install deps and log in (needs Node.js ≥ 22):

    bun install            # or: npm install
    npx wrangler login
  2. Set PUBLIC_URL in wrangler.jsonc to your Worker's URL. Deploy once to discover it (e.g. https://hevy-mcp.<your-subdomain>.workers.dev), or use a custom domain / route, then update PUBLIC_URL to match and redeploy.

  3. Add the three secrets:

    npx wrangler secret put HEVY_API_KEY
    npx wrangler secret put MCP_PASSWORD
    npx wrangler secret put JWT_SECRET     # e.g. paste `openssl rand -hex 32`
  4. Deploy:

    bun run cf:deploy      # = wrangler deploy

    Local dev against the real Workers runtime: copy .dev.vars.example to .dev.vars, set PUBLIC_URL=http://localhost:8787 there, then bun run cf:dev.

Connect from Claude

In the Claude app, add a custom connector pointing at https://<your-domain>/mcp. Leave Client ID / Client Secret blank. Complete the OAuth prompt by entering MCP_PASSWORD, and the Hevy tools become available.

Security notes

This repo is safe to keep public: no secrets live in it. Access is guarded entirely by two values you set as env vars / secrets — use a strong MCP_PASSWORD and keep JWT_SECRET private (rotating JWT_SECRET invalidates existing tokens and forces re-authentication).

Implementation notes

  • The server runs statelessly — a fresh MCP server + transport per request — which is simplest and robust for a single user. It does not advertise a server→client SSE stream (GET /mcp); tool calls are request/response.

  • Authorization codes are short-lived (5 min) signed JWTs and are not single-use within that window — an acceptable trade-off for a private, single-user server with no datastore.
