Oura Ring MCP
An MCP server that connects your Oura Ring to Claude and other AI assistants. Get human-readable insights about your sleep, readiness, and activity - not just raw JSON. Its 17 documented tools cover sleep, analyze, compare, conditions. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting science & health tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Oura Ring MCP
before you install - you'll need
Set OURA_CLIENT_ID, OURA_CLIENT_SECRET before connecting. OURA_ACCESS_TOKEN is optional or environment-specific per the README.
Claude Code
claude mcp add mitchhankins01-oura-ring-mcp -- npx -y oura-ring-mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"mitchhankins01-oura-ring-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"oura-ring-mcp"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

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 no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
npm package oura-ring-mcp - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing
registry namespace io.github.mitchhankins01 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Oura Ring MCP 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 find unusual readings using outlier detection, find correlations between health metrics, compare this week vs last week, and compare metrics with/without a tag.

Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-02-08. We re-verify nightly.
What can Oura Ring MCP do?
With this server connected, an agent can find unusual readings using outlier detection, find correlations between health metrics, compare this week vs last week, and compare metrics with/without a tag.
How do I install Oura Ring MCP?
Run `npx -y oura-ring-mcp`. The README documents 3 environment variables (OURA_ACCESS_TOKEN, OURA_CLIENT_ID, OURA_CLIENT_SECRET) to set first. Set OURA_CLIENT_ID, OURA_CLIENT_SECRET before connecting. OURA_ACCESS_TOKEN is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Oura Ring MCP run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
