Strava MCP server

Connect Strava to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, GitHub Copilot and any other MCP client, for your whole team. Metorial adds security, governance, and tracing, and gives everyone one Magic MCP URL to connect.

  • Use the list routes tool in Strava
  • Use the list activities tool in Strava
  • Use the list clubs tool in Strava
  • Use the update athlete tool in Strava
  • Use the explore segments tool in Strava

get_activity_streams

Get Activity Streams

Retrieve raw data streams for an activity. Streams are time-aligned arrays of data points such as GPS coordinates, heart rate, power, cadence, altitude, and more. All returned streams share the same length — values at a given index correspond to the same point in time.

Connect Strava to your AI client

Every client uses the same Magic MCP URL, and so does any other MCP client. Add it once and sign in with SSO.

  1. Enable Strava in Metorial. In your Metorial portal, enable the Strava MCP server and sign in with the account that owns the data. Access stays governed by your team policies.
  2. Add a custom connector. Open Customize, then Connectors. Select Add, then Custom, then Web.
  3. Paste your Metorial MCP URL. Name it Metorial, paste your Magic MCP URL (<your-magic-mcp-url>) and continue.
  4. Sign in. Select Add and sign in to load Strava tools.

Run Strava through the Metorial gateway

One governed layer for every app your agents reach, not a separate connector per tool.

  • Give Strava and every other app to your whole team through one MCP gateway, behind your SSO.
  • Scope which teams and agents can use Strava tools with role-based access control, and trace every call.
  • Prefer to run it yourself? Metorial is open source and self-hostable.
