What this lets you do

Always on — no re-enabling between sessions

Flip "Always allow" once in Claude's connector settings and Shape's tools are available every time you open a conversation. No toggling the connector on before each chat.

Mine years of Strava in Claude Desktop

Surface trends from your real training without leaving the desktop app. Compare seasons, find your fastest 5K splits, see how your easy pace has shifted — no exports or screenshots.

Get a coach's eye on your recent training

Tell Claude what you've been doing and how it felt. It'll spot patterns you don't, like creeping volume or skipped easy days, before they become a problem.

Plan the next block in plain English

Say "I want to run a half in 12 weeks" or "build me a base block for cycling". Claude reads your Strava history and Shape turns the answer into a real calendar.

Setup in 3 steps

  1. 1

    Sign up for Shape and connect Strava

    Sign up for Shape (14-day free trial included) and connect Strava via OAuth. We'll pull your activity history including pace, HR and elevation, so the AI has something real to work with.

  2. 2

    Add Shape as a connector in Claude

    In Claude (desktop or claude.ai), go to Settings → Connectors → Add Connector. Enter https://shapecalendar.com/mcp, click connect, and approve the Shape consent screen that opens in your browser. Flip "Always allow" on so Claude doesn't ask permission every time you call a tool.

  3. 3

    Start using it

    Start a new conversation, double-check your Shape connector is on, and try a prompt from below. Workouts you plan land on your watch automatically.

Example prompts

  • Look at my last 30 days of Strava activity. How's my training load trending? Honest answer please.
  • What's my average easy-run pace this year compared to last year, based on Strava?
  • Plan me a 4-week base block using my actual Strava pace data, not generic zones.
  • Find every run I did above threshold pace in the last 60 days. I want to see if I've been overcooking it.
  • Sum up my last three long runs. Am I actually trending in the right direction?
  • Build me a 10-week half marathon plan based on my Strava history. Race is June 15th.
  • Compare this month's volume to the same month last year. Be honest.
  • Looking at my recent training, what's a sensible long run for this Sunday?

What makes Shape different

  • Reads your full Strava activity history (runs, rides, swims, whatever you log), so the AI actually has something real to work with.
  • Plays nice with watches. Connect Garmin, Wahoo or Apple Health and planned workouts show up on your device, ready to start with one tap.
  • One calendar, every sport. Apple Health workouts mix with planned runs, rides and structured sessions in Shape.
