Follow these steps to enable vytalLink inside Claude Desktop
Launch Claude Desktop (install it if you haven't yet) and check for updates via Settings → About → Check for updates. Leave the app running; the bundle install requires Claude to be open.
Click the download button and save vytallink-mcp-server.mcpb somewhere easy to find, like your Downloads folder.
Double-click the bundle (or drag it into Claude Desktop → Settings → Extensions). Claude will show the vytalLink MCP extension details—click Install to confirm.
Once the installation finishes, quit and relaunch Claude Desktop so the extension loads correctly.
Use the vytalLink mobile app to generate a connection code and password. Ask Claude to connect using those credentials to start syncing your health data.
