COROS setup guide

How to Connect COROS to ChatGPT and Claude.ai

A practical COROS setup manual: use the COROS connection available in Intervals.icu, verify one real workout, then use STAS in ChatGPT or Claude.ai.

Connect for free

First useful action

Your watch data becomes useful only after it reaches the coaching conversation

Garmin, Apple Watch, and other devices send the training record to Intervals.icu. STAS turns it into context for ChatGPT or Claude.

1

Connect the source of truth

Intervals.icu keeps workouts, calendar, load, zones, and recent history in one place.

2

Let AI see real context

STAS prepares that data so ChatGPT or Claude can answer from your actual training, not a pasted summary.

3

Ask for the next decision

Start with a clear analysis or action: recovery check, missed workout, next week, or one session to adjust.

STAS reads only the training data you approve through Intervals.icu. Start with one practical question: current condition, a workout review, or what to change next.

Connect Intervals.icu data

Short answer

Use Intervals.icu’s COROS connection when it is available in your account. Intervals.icu can download completed COROS activities, wellness fields, and upload planned workouts, but you should still verify one real workout and one simple planned session on your exact watch.

Before you start

  • Your COROS watch must already sync correctly to the COROS app or COROS Training Hub.
  • You need an Intervals.icu account and access to Settings → Connections.
  • Use the same Intervals.icu account when signing in to STAS, ChatGPT, and Claude.ai.
  • If you use Strava, keep it for sharing; do not use it as the preferred bridge to STAS when the Intervals.icu COROS connection works for you.

Step-by-step setup

  1. 1Sync the COROS watch first. If the workout is missing from COROS, Intervals.icu and STAS cannot see it.
  2. 2Open Intervals.icu → Settings → Connections and connect COROS if the COROS connection is available for your account.
  3. 3Enable completed activities and the wellness fields you want STAS to use, such as sleep, resting heart rate, and HRV when available.
  4. 4If you want watch-ready workouts, enable planned workout upload and add the Intervals.icu training plan in the COROS app if prompted.
  5. 5Open Intervals.icu → Activities and verify one recent COROS workout.
  6. 6Sign in to STAS with that Intervals.icu account, then use STAS GPT in ChatGPT or the STAS connector in Claude.ai.

What to verify before using AI

Use one real workout as the test. STAS can only analyze fields that reached Intervals.icu.

  • Duration, distance, pace, GPS track, elevation, heart rate, running power, cadence, and laps.
  • Wellness fields such as sleep, resting HR, and HRV only if they actually appear for your account.
  • A second new workout syncing automatically after setup.
  • One simple planned workout reaching the COROS calendar before relying on complex key sessions.

What STAS can use from COROS

  • Completed activities with distance, duration, pace, GPS, elevation, heart rate, running power, cadence, laps, and sport type when they reach Intervals.icu.
  • Wellness context such as sleep, resting heart rate, and HRV only when those fields are available for your watch/account and visible in Intervals.icu.
  • Planning context from Intervals.icu: calendar, upcoming workouts, completed sessions, reports, goals, and your saved STAS rules.
  • Approved plan updates written back through Intervals.icu only after you confirm them.

Use COROS data with ChatGPT or Claude.ai

ChatGPT and Claude.ai read the same STAS context. The connection path is different in each AI app.

ChatGPT

  1. 1Open STAS GPT in ChatGPT.
  2. 2Authorize with the same Intervals.icu account connected to COROS.
  3. 3Ask “Update my data” first, then ask for workout analysis or plan changes.

Claude.ai

  1. 1Open Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector in Claude.
  2. 2Paste the STAS connector URL: https://stas.run/api/mcp.
  3. 3Finish Intervals.icu sign-in with the same account connected to COROS.
  4. 4Enable STAS in the Claude chat and ask Claude to update your data before analysis.

Planned workout push

Intervals.icu supports planned workout upload to COROS, but translation can vary. Test simple run or ride workouts first, then check how targets, repeats, and edits appear in COROS before important sessions.

Important limits

  • Workout push to COROS can be less forgiving than Garmin: moved or edited sessions may need extra checking in COROS.
  • Wellness and HRV availability depends on COROS model, firmware, account permissions, and Intervals.icu support.
  • STAS does not infer missing lap, power, or HR data. Verify the exact fields in Intervals.icu.

What about Strava’s official connector?

Strava’s official MCP connector is useful for read-only questions about Strava history in Claude. STAS is different: it works from Intervals.icu plus your saved profile, goals, rules, workout details, reports, calendar, and approved plan write-back.

  • Use the Strava connector when the question is mainly about Strava history.
  • Use STAS when you want ChatGPT or Claude.ai to coach from Intervals.icu and your saved training context.
  • For STAS quality, use the Intervals.icu COROS connection when it works for your account. Strava-routed activities may hide pace, HR, power, laps, or intervals.

Troubleshooting

  • If the COROS workout is missing in ChatGPT or Claude.ai, first check whether it is visible in Intervals.icu.
  • If Intervals.icu does not show power, HR, laps, or GPS, fix the COROS → Intervals.icu connection before asking STAS to analyze the session.
  • If planned workouts do not appear in COROS, verify the Intervals.icu planned workout upload setting and test one simple session.
  • If Claude does not see STAS tools, reopen the chat and make sure the STAS connector is enabled for that chat.
