What the code does

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command src/cli/auth.ts:128
  const run = spawnSync(python, [helperPath, config.tokenPath], {

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: GARMIN_TOKEN_PATH (Optional local path for Garmin Connect tokens. Defaults to ~/.garmin-mcp/garmin_tokens.json. Create it with garmin-mcp-server auth (self-contained Node login, no Python).), GARMIN_PRIVACY_MODE (Optional payload mode: summary, structured, or raw. Defaults to structured. raw means full supported Garmin Connect payloads, not unrestricted raw sensor telemetry.), GARMIN_CACHE (Optional SQLite cache toggle. Set to true or sqlite to enable.), GARMIN_CACHE_PATH (Optional local SQLite cache path. Defaults to ~/.garmin-mcp/cache.sqlite.), GARMIN_DOMAIN (Optional Garmin domain override. Use garmin.cn only for China accounts; default is garmin.com.), GARMIN_NO_CACHE (Set to true to bypass the in-memory HTTP response cache (60s TTL for GET only). POST/PUT/DELETE and 4xx/5xx responses are never cached regardless.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Garminmcp — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Garminmcp?
Garminmcp runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package garmin-mcp-unofficial was installed 226 times last week.
How do I connect Garminmcp?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls garmin-mcp-unofficial straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Garminmcp?
The npm package garmin-mcp-unofficial was installed 226 times in the last week. Week over week that is +335%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Garminmcp open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 12 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
