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.

File ships in the package but is absent from the source [пакет] src/whoop/session_state.ts:1
этот файл ставится пользователю, но в репозитории его нет
    const child = spawn(cmd, args, { stdio: "inherit", ...opts });

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.

run in your terminal

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: WHOOP_IOS_BEARER_TOKEN (Whoop Cognito access token. Obtain via `totem auth` from the repo, which prompts for your Whoop email + password + SMS MFA code, then writes both tokens to a local .env. Auto-refreshes every ~24h.), WHOOP_COGNITO_REFRESH_TOKEN (Whoop Cognito refresh token (~30 day lifetime). Obtained alongside the bearer token from `totem auth`. When this expires, run `totem auth` to get a fresh pair.), WHOOP_EMAIL (Your Whoop account email. Used only by `totem auth` — the running server reads tokens, not credentials.), WHOOP_USER_ID (Your numeric Whoop user ID. Optional — used by whoop_profile and whoop_leaderboard. Avoids one redundant bootstrap call per session if set.), WHOOP_TIMEZONE (IANA timezone (e.g., America/Los_Angeles) for response timestamps. Optional — if unset, the server auto-detects from your Whoop profile's timezone_offset field (refreshed hourly).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Totem — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Totem?
Totem 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 @thebriangao/totem was installed 27 times last week.
How do I connect Totem?
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 @thebriangao/totem straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Totem?
The npm package @thebriangao/totem was installed 27 times in the last week. Week over week that is +87%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Totem open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript, 119 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
