Fitbit MCP vs Garmin Local MCP

fitbit_sync

Sync Fitbit health data to the local cache. Fetches data from the Fitbit API and stores it in SQLite for fast offline queries. Run this before using other fitbit_get_* tools. Syncs incrementally: only fetches data newer than the most recent entry in each table. First sync fetches the specified number of days. Args: data_types: What to sync. Options: "all", "heart_rate", "activity", "exercises", "sleep", "weight", "spo2", "hrv", "azm", "breathing_rate", "skin_temperature", "core_temperature", "cardio_fitness", "food_log". Comma-separated for multiple, e.g. "sleep,hrv". Default: "all". days: Days of history for first sync (default: 30). Ignored on subsequent syncs (uses last synced date). since: Optional "YYYY-MM-DD" backfill date. When set, fetches from this date regardless of what is already cached - use to pull history older than the current cache. Overrides incremental resume and days. until: Optional "YYYY-MM-DD" inclusive end date; requires since. Together they re-fetch and upsert exactly the since..until window - use to repair a gap in the middle of the cache without re-pulling everything from the gap to today. Returns summary of records synced per data type. Not for querying data - use fitbit_get_heart_rate, fitbit_get_activity, fitbit_get_sleep, etc. instead.

fitbit_get_activity

Get daily activity summaries (steps, calories, active minutes, distance). Returns data from the local cache by default. Use live=True to fetch from Fitbit API. Run fitbit_sync first to populate the cache. Note: live=True fetches one API call per day - avoid large ranges to stay within the 150 requests/hour rate limit. Args: start_date: Start date as "YYYY-MM-DD", "YYYY-MM", or "30d". Default: last 30 days. end_date: End date as "YYYY-MM-DD". Default: today. live: If true, fetch directly from Fitbit API instead of cache. Returns one entry per day with steps, calories, active minutes, distance. active_minutes = very_active + fairly_active (excludes lightly active).
