whoop-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

whoop-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from izqui/whoop-mcp. It costs 1,533 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Development instructions for an MCP server that connects language models to WHOOP, a fitness wearable platform, through its API. They describe the project architecture and OAuth2 login, which lets an app obtain permission to read a user’s data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guiding work on WHOOP data access for profile, sleep, recovery, cycles, and workout information, including login and automatic token renewal.
Why use it?
They preserve the project’s decisions about authentication, token storage, data access, and API structure so future changes remain consistent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

whoop-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

WHOOP MCP Server - Development Context

This document captures the development context and decisions made while building the WHOOP MCP server.

Project Overview

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates with the WHOOP API v2, allowing LLMs to access sleep, recovery, and physiological cycle data from WHOOP devices.

Architecture Decisions

Technology Stack

  • xmcp: Fast, type-safe MCP implementation (chosen for performance)
  • TypeScript: Full type safety throughout the codebase
  • Passport OAuth2: Industry-standard OAuth implementation
  • Express: Temporary server for OAuth callback handling only

Authentication Strategy

  1. OAuth Flow: Uses WHOOP's OAuth2 implementation with authorization code flow
  2. Token Storage: Local file storage (.whoop-tokens.json) for tokens
  3. Auto-refresh: Tokens are automatically refreshed when near expiration (5-minute buffer)
  4. Scopes: Requests all read scopes: offline, read:profile, read:cycles, read:sleep, read:recovery, read:workout

API Client Design

  • Singleton Pattern: Single instance of WhoopAPIClient to manage all API calls
  • Base URL: Uses /developer/v2 prefix (discovered through testing)
  • Error Handling: Comprehensive error messages for 401, 404, 429, and 500 errors
  • Type Safety: Full TypeScript interfaces for all API responses

Key Implementation Details

Token Management (src/auth/token-validator.ts)

  • Automatically loads tokens from file when needed
  • Checks token expiration with 5-minute buffer
  • Refreshes tokens using refresh token
  • Saves updated tokens back to file
  • Clear error messages when authentication fails

API Endpoints

All endpoints use the base URL: https://api.prod.whoop.com/developer/v2

  1. Sleep Endpoints:

    • /activity/sleep/{sleepId} - Get sleep by UUID
    • /cycle/{cycleId}/sleep - Get sleep for a cycle
  2. Cycle Endpoints:

    • /cycle - Get cycle collection (paginated)
    • /cycle/{cycleId} - Get specific cycle

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
