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
claude mcp add exerciseapi -- npx -y @exerciseapi/mcp-server
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exerciseapi": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@exerciseapi/mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.exerciseapi]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@exerciseapi/mcp-server"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exerciseapi": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@exerciseapi/mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }

        "@exerciseapi/mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: EXERCISEAPI_KEY (Your API key from exerciseapi.dev/dashboard). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Exerciseapi — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Exerciseapi?
Exerciseapi 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 @exerciseapi/mcp-server was installed 33 times last week.
How do I connect Exerciseapi?
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 @exerciseapi/mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Exerciseapi?
The npm package @exerciseapi/mcp-server was installed 33 times in the last week. Week over week that is +26%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Exerciseapi open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 2 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
