Marrow (skeletonarmytech) MCP Server

Give your AI agents read-only access to your own Apple Health data. Marrow is a free iOS app that tracks 178 health data series - 172 Apple Health types plus its own meal diary and set-by-set weightlifting log. This repo is its self-hosted companion server: one Python file, standard library only, that keeps a SQLite mirror of your data on hardware you own and serves it over the Model Context Protocol so agents can…. Its 7 documented tools cover metric, log.

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