SETUP
Connect Libby Health to your AI client
Start with the shared prerequisites, then follow the instructions for Claude or ChatGPT. The connection remains scoped to the Libby account that completes OAuth.
- 1
Prepare your Libby account
Sign in to Libby Health and make sure at least one lab report has finished processing. Connector access requires full access through an active trial or paid membership.

Use the Claude or ChatGPT instructions below. Both clients connect to the same public MCP server and require the same Libby OAuth authorization.

EXAMPLE PROMPTS
Start with a question about your record
- “Show my latest cholesterol results and their lab reference ranges.
- “How have my HbA1c and fasting glucose changed over time?
- “Summarize my most recent lab report and identify results outside the lab's ranges.
- “Was I tested for peanut IgE, and what did the result show?
- “Which allergen sensitizations are recorded in my account?
Reference ranges come from the lab record. When no range is available, the connector returns that absence instead of inventing a range. Ask a clinician to interpret results in the context of your health and care plan.
DATA & PRIVACY
A narrow, user-scoped data boundary
The connector can return
- Lab marker values, units, flags, and lab reference ranges
- Marker history and report or panel contents
- Allergen IgE test availability and sensitization results
- Age in years and biological sex for range context
The connector does not return
- Uploaded documents or images
- Account credentials, name, email, address, or raw date of birth
- Internal database identifiers or proprietary target bands
- Write, edit, upload, or delete capabilities
Tool results are sent to the connected AI service only after the user completes OAuth and the service invokes a tool for the conversation. Review the Libby Health app privacy policy and the privacy and data controls of the AI service you connect before using personal health data.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Common connection issues
The connector or app does not appear or will not connect
Confirm that your Libby account has full access. Sign in to Libby in the same browser, then remove and reconnect Libby in your AI client. In ChatGPT, also confirm that Developer mode is enabled and refresh the app metadata after server changes.
The AI assistant returns no markers or reports
Make sure at least one lab report has finished processing in Libby. The connector can only return data already present in the connected account.
A marker or report is not found
Try a familiar marker name first, or ask the assistant to list available reports. Results are limited to the connected user's record.
Can an AI assistant change my record?
No. This connector exposes no create, update, upload, or delete tool. Record changes must be made inside Libby Health.
