Cronometer API MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Cronometer nutrition tracking, built on the reverse-engineered mobile REST API. Its 15 documented tools cover food, nutrition, entry, day. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting API integration tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Cronometer API MCP

before you install - you'll need

Set CRONOMETER_USERNAME, CRONOMETER_PASSWORD, CRONOMETER_ACCOUNT_TZ before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add rwestergren-cronometer-api-mcp -- uvx cronometer-api-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rwestergren-cronometer-api-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "cronometer-api-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

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 cronometer-api-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

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

03 · What Cronometer API 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 search the Cronometer food database by name, log a food serving to the diary, remove one or more diary entries, and create a custom food with specified nutrition.

Capability map

Tools grouped from the project's README - what Cronometer API MCP lets an agent do.

Food

5 tools - e.g. Diary entries for a date, each enriched with food name, source, serving measure/count, and that food's per-entry nutrient contribution, plus an energy_summary (; Full nutrition profile and serving sizes…
