Show HN: Apple Health MCP Server (github.com)

This is an MCP server to chat with Apple Health data. I built it because I'm working on (yet another) personal trainer tool that keeps track of my workout goals, etc. and does scheduling for me. Part of that is weekly check-ins. I thought pairing those check-ins with sensor data could be useful, so here we are.

It seems there isn't a way to automate access to Apple Health data, so this relies on an iOS app that can quickly/easily export key data to CSV. So the process at the moment is to export the data every Sunday before doing a check-in. More steps than I'd like, but in practice isn't a big lift.

Under the hood this is mostly a thin wrapper around duckdb.

There's a video of it in action here: https://x.com/realtron/status/1947710791521591514

Very cool indeed. I started building something similar - relying on Auto Export [https://apps.apple.com/us/app/health-auto-export-json-csv/id...] to export my health data to an endpoint which stores it in a sqlite database. I never got as far as building an MCP server around the data but that's certainly the direction I was heading. The initial idea was to use my health data to provide context to a health/fitness agent that would recommend workouts, check-in on things, etc.

Super cool. An iPhone + Apple Watch generate about 40 distinct biomarkers of your data (resting heart rate, VO2max, workouts, sleep stages, sleep apnea risk, ECGs, and so on), but the ability to interpret them is very limited.

I work on an iOS health app, and I'd love to try integrating this. It'd help eliminate the step of having to manually export to a CSV every Sunday.

Feel free to shoot me an email if you want to collaborate!

we've built a wrapper around Apple Health to simplify data extraction and synchronization. If you think this might be useful, feel free to drop me a message.
