Check if Strava is connected and show the current connection status. Use this when the user asks about their connection status.
AI agents call check-strava-connection to retrieve information from Strava MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves and displays the status of an existing connection. It performs no write operations, does not execute external code or commands, does not delete data, and has no financial implications. It is a simple read-only status check with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition The tool description states it 'Check[s] if Strava is connected and show[s] the current connection status' — purely informational operations with no data modification, execution, or side effects.
