Inbody API MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for InBody body-composition data, built on the reverse-engineered mobile REST API used by the InBody Android app. Its README documents 4 tools, including get_profile, get_scan_count, list_scans. 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 Python.

01 · Install Inbody API MCP

before you install - you'll need

Set INBODY_LOGIN_ID, INBODY_LOGIN_PW before connecting. INBODY_COUNTRY_CODE is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add rwestergren-inbody-api-mcp -- uvx inbody-api-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rwestergren-inbody-api-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "inbody-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 inbody-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 Inbody API MCP can do

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

What you can build

An agent gets 4 documented tools, including get_profile, get_scan_count, list_scans, get_scan.

The 4 tools it gives your agent

Extracted from the project's README - what inbody-api-mcp lets an agent do.

get_profile
- User identity and baseline metrics (height, weight, age, gender)
get_scan_count
- Total number of scans on the account
list_scans
- Chronological scan summaries (weight, BMI, % body fat, muscle mass)
get_scan
- Full metric set for one scan (BCA / MFA / IMP blocks)

06 · Inbody API MCP FAQ

Is Inbody API MCP still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-06-19 and it shipped 1 release in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

What can Inbody API MCP do?

An agent gets 4 documented tools, including get_profile, get_scan_count, list_scans, get_scan.

How do I install Inbody API MCP?

Run `uvx inbody-api-mcp`. The README documents 3 environment variables (INBODY_LOGIN_ID, INBODY_LOGIN_PW, INBODY_COUNTRY_CODE) to set first. Set INBODY_LOGIN_ID, INBODY_LOGIN_PW before connecting. INBODY_COUNTRY_CODE is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Inbody API MCP run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
