FAQ from Strava MCP Server

What is required to use Strava MCP Server?

You need a Strava API application (Client ID and Client Secret) and an MCP client like Claude Desktop. Credentials are set as environment variables.

How does authentication work?

On first use, an OAuth flow automatically starts and opens your browser to the Strava authorization page. After authorizing, the refresh token is saved locally for future use.

What tools are available?

The server provides four tools: Get User Activities, Get Activity, Get Activity Segments, and Get Segment Leaderboard. Each supports optional parameters like time filters or effort inclusion.

How do I configure it for Claude Desktop?

Add an entry to claude_desktop_config.json that runs bash -c "source ~/.ssh/strava.sh && uvx strava-mcp", where strava.sh exports your Client ID and Client Secret.

Can I manually obtain a refresh token?

Yes, run python get_token.py from the project directory to manually get a refresh token.
