DIRECT ANSWER

Connect workout data to AI through an authenticated tool service with clear read and write annotations, client-side tool controls and immediate revocation. The current Bulk Coach connection covers workout tools behind one external-assistant grant and does not expose Apple Health.

Control the tools in the client

Review the discovered tool list and disable tools the task does not need. Write annotations and approval prompts help distinguish an inspection from a change, even though the current Clerk grant is not split into custom training scopes.

Check the data shape

A trustworthy connection says whether it exposes raw samples, aggregates or summaries. Bulk Coach excludes Apple Health from its external MCP tool catalogue.

Test revocation

Disconnect the client and confirm that a later request fails. Revocation is part of the feature, not an account-support exception.
