My Fitness Pal MCP Server

Connect MyFitnessPal to Claude or any MCP client. Log meals by talking, search the food database with macros, track trends, and export your nutrition history, all against your real MyFitnessPal diary. Its 12 documented tools cover fitness, food, log, note. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with fitness, food and log and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package mfp-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.Mason-Levyy is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What My Fitness Pal can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can log a food to the real diary (top match, or an exact search candidate), remove a diary entry by name match, replace an entry (or change its quantity), and log a weight measurement (updates the same day on re-log).

The 12 tools it gives your agent

Extracted from the project's README - what MyFitnessPal lets an agent do.

fitness_get_day: - Nutrition totals, diary entries, the MFP daily note, and feel note for a day
fitness_search_food: - Candidate matches with brand, calories, macros, serving, and ids
fitness_log_food: - Log a food to the real diary (top match, or an exact search candidate)
fitness_delete_food: - Remove a diary entry by name match
fitness_modify_food: - Replace an entry (or change its quantity)
fitness_log_weight: - Log a weight measurement (updates the same day on re-log)
fitness_get_exercise: - Read the exercise diary (cardio + strength)
fitness_get_note: - Read the MyFitnessPal daily diary note (the "Notes" box) for a day
fitness_log_note: - Write that daily note to MFP (replace, or append a new line)
fitness_log_feel: - Save a subjective "how I feel" note (stored locally, never sent to MFP)
fitness_get_trends: - One metric over a date range: weight, calories_in, protein, carbs, fat
fitness_bulk_export: - Whole date range in one call, for analysis
