Coach Mcp
Connects to your Garmin Connect account and exposes 48 tools for AI-driven training prescription with hard enforcement gates. It pulls real fitness data (ACWR, CTL, HR zones, sleep, personal records) and won't let you or the LLM approve plans that violate injury restrictions or load management rules. Everything persists locally: athlete profile, weekly plans, coaching decisions, anomaly tracking (missed sessions, rest day violations), and adaptation patterns across conversations. You'd reach for this if you want an opinionated coach that actually says no when your enthusiasm exceeds capacity, not just a chatbot that agrees with whatever you propose. Includes strength progression tracking, race calendar integration, and Garmin workout sync.

Readme
coach-mcp
An opinionated AI training coach as an MCP server. It pulls your real data from Garmin Connect and prescribes with authority — science-based load management (ACWR), code-enforced injury gates (the server rejects plans that violate an active injury restriction, no matter what the LLM says), and persistent coaching memory so decisions, rationale, and your adaptation patterns survive between conversations. It will tell you "no" when your enthusiasm exceeds your capacity.
All health data and credentials stay on your machine — see Security & Privacy.
Quickstart
You need Python 3.12+, a free Garmin Connect account, and an MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor).
Option A: uvx (recommended)
No install step — your MCP client runs the server on demand:
uvx garmin-coach-mcp
