How to connect a Strava MCP with Codex (4 steps)
Blog post from Merge
Merge offers a platform that facilitates the integration of AI tools like Codex with platforms such as Strava, allowing developers to access real user data for building fitness and wellness features. By connecting Codex to Strava using Merge Agent Handler, developers can leverage Strava's extensive training data, including activity records, gear histories, and athlete-authored notes, to create accurate and realistic analytics, dashboards, and coaching tools. The process involves using the Merge CLI to authenticate and set up connections without embedding sensitive credentials directly into the codebase. Merge Agent Handler provides centralized management of OAuth credentials, ensuring secure and efficient access to Strava data while maintaining audit logs of tool calls. This integration empowers developers to build features that mirror actual athlete behavior, thereby enhancing the reliability and authenticity of the applications they create.
