An [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that lets an AI assistant query your **Apple Health** data — sleep, heart rate, steps, body mass, workouts, and any other metric in your export.

Apple has no live export API, so this works on a **snapshot**: you export your health archive once, ingest it into a local SQLite database, then the server answers queries against it. See [`docs/adr.md`](docs/adr.md) for why.

> **Privacy:** your health data never leaves your machine and is never committed to git (`.gitignore` excludes `*.zip` / `*.db`).

## How it works

```
export.zip ──(ingest, one-time ~1-3 min)──► health.db (SQLite) ──◄── MCP server queries
```

## Setup

1. **Export your data** on iPhone: _Settings → Health → tap your photo → Export All Health Data_. AirDrop/save the resulting `export.zip`.

2. **Install** with [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/). Installing once (rather than
   `uvx` on every launch) keeps the process tree shallow, which matters for clean
   shutdown — see [Shutdown & process model](#shutdown--process-model).

   ```bash
   uv tool install apple-health-export-mcp
   # …or from source:
   uv tool install git+https://github.com/burakdirin/apple-health-export-mcp
   ```

   This puts two commands on your PATH: `apple-health-export-mcp` (the server) and
   `apple-health-export-mcp-ingest`.

3. **Ingest** the archive (one time per new export):

   ```bash
   AH_DB_PATH=~/.local/share/apple-health-export-mcp/health.db…
