An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for InBody body-composition data, built on the reverse-engineered mobile REST API used by the InBody Android app.

InBody has no public API and no web UI for personal scan data. This server talks to the same JSON REST endpoints the mobile app uses, exposing your body composition history (body fat, muscle mass, body water, segmental impedance) to any MCP client.

Features

  • Profile -- identity and baseline metrics (height, weight, age, gender)

  • Scan history -- chronological summaries (weight, BMI, % body fat, muscle mass)

  • Full scan metrics -- complete body composition (BCA), BMI/%fat/muscle with normal ranges (MFA), and segmental/multi-frequency impedance (IMP)

  • Automatic region routing -- resolves the correct regional API host from your country code

  • Automatic re-authentication -- caches the 24h JWT and re-logs in on expiry

Quick Start

1. Install uv

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Set credentials

export INBODY_LOGIN_ID="3026323617"   # registration phone number, digits only
export INBODY_LOGIN_PW="your-password"
export INBODY_COUNTRY_CODE="US"       # ISO country code (default US)

INBODY_LOGIN_ID is the phone number used at registration, not your email -- digits only, no country code or + (e.g. 3026323617). InBody keys login on the phone number; the email is only returned as profile data. An email value will fail login with EmptyData.

3. Configure your MCP client

uvx downloads and runs the server on demand -- no separate install step.

Tool

Description

get_profile

User identity and baseline metrics (height, weight, age, gender)

get_scan_count

Total number of scans on the account

list_scans

Chronological scan summaries (weight, BMI, % body fat, muscle mass)

get_scan

Full metric set for one scan (BCA / MFA / IMP blocks)

This server is read-only: no write or delete endpoints are exposed.

How It Works

This server communicates with the regional *.lookinbody.com REST API -- the same backend used by the InBody Android app (v2.8.31). The API was reverse-engineered by capturing app traffic with mitmproxy and confirming payload shapes against the live API.

The auth flow:

  1. POST /CommonAPI/GetCountryInfoV2 (on appapicommon.lookinbody.com) returns a per-country host table. The Type == "API" row for your ISO country code gives the regional API base (US -> appapiusav2.lookinbody.com) and the numeric phone code used in request bodies.

  2. POST /V2/Main/GetLoginWithSyncDataPartV2 exchanges the login ID + password for a 24-hour JWT, a refresh token, and the account UID.

  3. Subsequent calls send Authorization: Bearer <JWT>. The client re-authenticates automatically when the token expires.

Each scan record nests three blocks: BCA (body composition analysis -- body water, protein, mineral, fat, segmental water), MFA (BMI, % body fat, skeletal muscle mass, WHR with normal ranges), and IMP (raw impedance per frequency and body segment).

Python API

You can use the client directly:

from inbody_api_mcp.client import InBodyClient

client = InBodyClient()

# Total number of scans
count = client.get_scan_count()

# Recent scans (newest first), paginated
scans = client.get_scans(number=20, index=0)

# User profile
profile = client.get_user_info()

Transport

stdio only. MCP clients (OpenCode, Claude Desktop) spawn the stdio process directly via uvx/uv.

Available Tools

4 tools
get_profileA
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get the InBody user profile.

Returns identity and baseline body metrics (name, gender, age, height, weight, email) useful for interpreting scan results.

Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: result

get_scanA
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get the full metric set for a single InBody scan.

Returns the complete BCA (body composition), MFA (BMI/%fat/muscle with norm ranges), and IMP (segmental/multi-frequency impedance) blocks.

Args: raw_datetime: The scan's raw DATETIMES value (YYYYMMDDHHMMSS) from list_scans. Defaults to the most recent scan.

Inputs: raw_datetime. Returns: result

get_scan_countA
Read-onlyIdempotent

Get the total number of InBody scans available for the account.

Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: result

list_scansA
Read-onlyIdempotent

List InBody scans with headline metrics, newest first.

Returns a slim summary per scan (date, weight, BMI, %body fat, skeletal muscle mass, body fat mass, total body water, equipment). Use get_scan with a scan's raw_datetime for the full metric set.

Args: limit: Maximum number of scans to return (default 20). offset: Pagination offset into the scan history (default 0).

Inputs: limit, offset. Returns: result

    A4.4/5.0

    Scored across 4 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: get_profile returns user identity and baseline metrics; get_scan returns full metrics for a specific scan; get_scan_count returns the total number of scans; list_scans returns a summary list of scans. No overlap or ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case: get_profile, get_scan, get_scan_count, list_scans. The convention is uniform and predictable.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for an InBody API: it provides profile retrieval, scan listing, scan detail, and scan count. No unnecessary tools, and the count is appropriate for the domain.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set covers the essential read operations for InBody scans and user profile. A minor gap is the lack of filtering or searching scans by date range, but the core workflow (list, get detail, count) is fully supported.
