Best for
  • Knowledge workers who need to retrieve personal screen and audio history.
  • Users who prioritize local processing and privacy.
  • Developers who want to provide work context to Claude, Cursor, or other MCP clients.
  • Remote workers who need meeting transcription and activity review.
  • Hevy PRO users who want AI assistants to directly access their workout data
  • People who prefer using MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, Codex for fitness tracking
  • Anyone needing summaries and insights from their training data
  • Scenarios needing clean, structured web context fed to an AI assistant
  • Users already on the Firecrawl platform who want to call its scraping capability directly via MCP
Not for
  • Users who do not want continuous screen or audio capture.
  • Teams that require centralized cloud storage without local recording.
  • Use cases requiring only ordinary file-system or database access.
  • Users without a Hevy PRO subscription (API key required)
  • Users who want to use the server without an API key
  • Those needing delete workflows (Hevy API does not expose delete endpoints)
  • Simple static-page scraping where you don't want to depend on a third-party API and incur call costs
  • Sites that explicitly disallow automated access (robots.txt)
Required permissions
  • Screenpipe needs applicable screen-recording permissions to capture screen content.
  • System-audio and microphone capture require the relevant system audio or microphone permissions.
  • The application uses the accessibility tree to extract screen text and falls back to OCR when unavailable.
  • On macOS, system-audio capture requires Screen & System Audio Recording permission and the relevant experimental feature to be enabled.
  • Requires HEVY_API_KEY environment variable for Hevy API authentication
  • Can create, update, and replace workouts, routines, folders, templates, and body measurements via tools
  • Read operations can fetch workouts, routines, folders, templates, history, and user info
  • Requires a Firecrawl API key to call; cost and quota are governed by the Firecrawl account
  • firecrawl_agent/firecrawl_interact perform automated browser interaction, which may trigger login or form-submission flows on the target site
Risks and side effects
  • Screens, audio, transcripts, and search indexes may contain passwords, private conversations, or proprietary information.
  • Data is stored locally by default, but enabled analytics and crash diagnostics may send device or error metadata.
  • Cloud transcription, hosted AI, or cloud sync can remotely process related audio, prompts, context, or synchronized data.
  • Continuous capture consumes system resources; the README reports typical CPU usage of 5–10%.
  • API key can be misused if leaked; do not expose in URLs, logs, or screenshots
  • Create operations may produce duplicates on retry; update operations replace existing records
  • The server sends data to the Hevy API and may send telemetry to external services unless disabled
  • Bulk crawl/map tools can generate significant request volume against a target site — respect the site's rate limits and terms of service
  • firecrawl_agent's interactive action chain is longer — define task boundaries clearly before running it to avoid accidentally triggering actions on a sensitive site
