🚀 Quick Start
Prerequisites
- Hevy Pro subscription - The Hevy API is only available to Pro users
- Hevy API Key - Get yours at https://hevy.com/settings?developer
- Cloudflare account - For deploying the MCP server
Deploy to Cloudflare Workers
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/tomtorggler/hevy-mcp-server.git
cd hevy-mcp-server
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Set your Hevy API key as a secret:
npx wrangler secret put HEVY_API_KEY
# Paste your API key when prompted
- Deploy to Cloudflare:
npm run deploy
Your MCP server will be available at: https://hevy-mcp-server.<your-account>.workers.dev/mcp
Local Development
Run the server locally:
npm run dev
The server will be available at: http://localhost:8787/mcp
🔌 Connect to AI Clients
Claude Desktop
To connect from Claude Desktop, edit your config file (Settings > Developer > Edit Config):
{
"mcpServers": {
"hevy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"mcp-remote",
"https://hevy-mcp-server.<your-account>.workers.dev/mcp"
]
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop and you'll see the Hevy tools available.

- Start using Hevy tools directly from the playground!
📖 Usage Examples
Creating a Workout
Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant to log workouts:
"Log a workout from today at 10am to 11am. I did bench press: 3 sets of 100kg for 10 reps, and squats: 4 sets of 120kg for 8 reps."
The assistant will:
- Use
get_exercise_templatesto find the exercise IDs - Call
create_workoutwith the proper structure - Confirm the workout was logged successfully
Viewing Progress
"Show me my last 5 workouts"
"What's my exercise history for deadlifts?"
"Get all workout changes since January 1st, 2024"
The assistant will use get_workout_events to sync recent changes.
Managing Routines
"Create a new Push Day routine with bench press (4 sets of 8-12 reps at 100kg) and overhead press (3 sets of 10 reps at 60kg)"
The assistant will use the repRange field for exercises with rep ranges like "8-12 reps".
"Update my Upper Body routine to add pull-ups"
The assistant will use update_routine to modify existing routines.
Creating Custom Exercises
"Create a custom exercise called 'Tom's Special Cable Flyes' for chest using the cable machine"
The assistant will use create_exercise_template with the appropriate muscle groups and equipment category.
Organizing Routines
"Create a new folder called 'Summer 2024 Programs'"
The assistant will use create_routine_folder to organize your routines.
🔧 API Details
Workout Structure
When creating workouts, you can specify:
title- Name of the workout (required)startTime- When the workout started (required, ISO 8601 format)endTime- When the workout ended (required, ISO 8601 format)routineId- Optional routine ID this workout belongs todescription- Optional workout descriptionisPrivate- Whether the workout is private (optional, default: false)exercises- Array of exercises, each with:title- Exercise name from the template (required)exerciseTemplateId- Get this fromget_exercise_templates(required)supersetId- Optional superset ID (null if not in a superset)notes- Optional notes for this exercisesets- Array of set data with:type- "warmup", "normal", "failure", or "dropset" (optional)weightKg- Weight in kilograms (optional)reps- Number of repetitions (optional)distanceMeters- For cardio exercises (optional)durationSeconds- For timed exercises (optional)customMetric- Custom metric for steps/floors (optional)rpe- Rating of Perceived Exertion, 6-10 (optional)
Note: The index field for exercises and sets is automatically generated based on their position in the array.
Routine Structure
When creating routines, you can specify:
title- Name of the routine (required)folderId- Optional folder ID (null for default "My Routines" folder)notes- Optional notes for the routineexercises- Array of exercises, each with:exerciseTemplateId- Get this fromget_exercise_templates(required)supersetId- Optional superset ID (null if not in a superset)restSeconds- Rest time in seconds between sets (optional)notes- Optional notes for this exercisesets- Array of set data with:type- "warmup", "normal", "failure", or "dropset" (optional)weightKg- Weight in kilograms (optional)reps- Number of repetitions (optional)repRange- Rep range object withstartandend(optional, e.g., 8-12 reps)distanceMeters- For cardio exercises (optional)durationSeconds- For timed exercises (optional)customMetric- Custom metric for steps/floors (optional)

Adding New Tools
To add new Hevy API capabilities:
- Add the API method to
src/lib/client.ts - Define the tool in
src/index.tsinside theinit()method - Use Zod for input validation
- Handle errors gracefully
Example:
this.server.tool(
"tool_name",
{
param: z.string().describe("Parameter description"),
},
async ({ param }) => {
try {
const result = await this.client.someMethod(param);
return {
content: [{
type: "text",
text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2)
}]
};
} catch (error) {
return {
content: [{
type: "text",
text: `Error: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : "Unknown error"}`
}]
};
}
}
);
