This tool retrieves a power-duration curve, which is fitness analytics data from Garmin Connect. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations—only data retrieval. The empty description is a weakness, but the clear 'get_' prefix and the benign nature of power curve data (calculated from existing activity metrics) strongly indicate a read operation.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Garmin MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_power_duration_curve:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_power_duration_curve": {}
  }
}

get_power_duration_curve is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Garmin MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
