Read-only MCP server for UK gym search using the LocalGym Agent API.
If you already use Localgym, the localgym mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. Read-only MCP server for UK gym search using the LocalGym Agent API.
Read-only MCP server for searching, comparing, and recommending UK gyms using the public LocalGym Agent API.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
search_gyms — Search UK gyms by name, keyword, location, or user intentget_gym_details — Return structured details for a LocalGym gym slugrecommend_gyms — Recommend gyms for a user goal and locationcompare_gyms — Compare several gyms by LocalGym slugInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at localgym-mcp-server on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: LOCALGYM_API_BASE. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Localgym's toolset — search_gyms, get_gym_details, recommend_gyms and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by lo-nau; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
