About Oura MCP Server
Oura MCP Server is an MCP server that gives language models access to the Oura API for sleep, readiness and resilience data. It is aimed at Oura ring users who want to review their health data from an AI client.
Key features
- 01Query sleep, readiness and resilience data by date range
- 02Query today's sleep, readiness and resilience data
- 03Authenticate with an Oura Personal Access Token
- 04Return human-readable error messages
Use cases
- 01Ask Claude for Desktop about today's sleep score
- 02Review readiness data for the past week
- 03Check sleep over a specific date range
MCP support
This project is an MCP server that exposes tools for querying Oura data to MCP clients.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEOura MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to the Oura API. It allows language models to query sleep, readiness, and resilience data from Oura API.
Available Tools
The server exposes the following tools:
Date Range Queries
get_sleep_data(start_date: str, end_date: str): Get sleep data for a specific date rangeget_readiness_data(start_date: str, end_date: str): Get readiness data for a specific date rangeget_resilience_data(start_date: str, end_date: str): Get resilience data for a specific date range
Dates should be provided in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD).
Today's Data Queries
get_today_sleep_data(): Get sleep data for todayget_today_readiness_data(): Get readiness data for todayget_today_resilience_data(): Get resilience data for today
Usage
You'll need an Oura API token to use this server. You can obtain one by:
- Going to the Oura Developer Portal
- Creating a Personal Access Token
Claude for Desktop
Update your claude_desktop_config.json (located in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS and %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on Windows) to include the following:
{
"mcpServers": {
"oura": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"oura-mcp-server"
],
"env": {
"OURA_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_OURA_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Example Queries
Once connected, you can ask Claude questions like:
- "What's my sleep score for today?"
- "Show me my readiness data for the past week"
- "How was my sleep from January 1st to January 7th?"
- "What's my resilience score today?"
Error Handling
The server provides human-readable error messages for common issues:
- Invalid date formats
- API authentication errors
- Network connectivity problems

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
