Free Home Gym Gear Finder: Add It to Claude or ChatGPT

Our free gear finder answers home gym questions from Strong Saga’s compared and ranked buying guides: which power rack clears your ceiling, which dumbbells fit your budget, what cardio works in an apartment. Try it right here, or add it to Claude or ChatGPT so your assistant can check our guides whenever you ask about gear.

Try the gear finder

Ask the way you would ask a friend. Each answer shows the guide’s rank, the guide it comes from and a buy link.

Add it to Claude

1. Open Claude (claude.ai or the Claude desktop app) and go to Settings, then Connectors.
2. Click Add custom connector.
3. Name it Strong Saga Gear Finder and paste this URL: https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp
4. Leave the advanced and sign-in settings empty. No account or key is needed. Click Add.
5. In a new chat, open the tools menu, make sure Strong Saga Gear Finder is on, and ask something like “Which power rack fits a 7 foot ceiling under $500?”

Custom connectors depend on your Claude plan, and menu names can change a little over time.

Add it to ChatGPT

1. Open ChatGPT on the web and go to Settings, then Apps and Connectors (on some plans it is called Connectors).
2. Open Advanced settings and turn on Developer mode.
3. Click Create, name it Strong Saga Gear Finder and paste this URL: https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp
4. Set authentication to No authentication, tick the box to confirm, and click Create.
5. In a new chat, choose it from the plus menu and ask your question.

Developer mode is available on paid ChatGPT plans on the web.

Claude Desktop, Cursor and other apps

Copy the block for your app. For Claude Desktop’s config file (Settings, then Developer, then Edit Config), use the last block, which connects through the free mcp-remote bridge and needs Node installed. For Cursor, use the Cursor block.

MCP server URL (Streamable HTTP, no auth) Copy

https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp

Claude (web or desktop): open Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector. Name it Strong Saga Gear and paste the MCP URL above. No auth.

Claude Code Copy

claude mcp add --transport http strongsaga-gear https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp

Cursor: Add to Cursor (opens Cursor), or put this in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

Cursor mcp.json Copy

  "mcpServers": {
    "strongsaga-gear": {
      "url": "https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp"

}

Any MCP client (mcpServers JSON) Copy

  "mcpServers": {
    "strongsaga-gear": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

  "mcpServers": {
    "strongsaga-gear": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

        "https://strongsaga.com/wp-json/gear/v1/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Ready prompts

Once it is added, your assistant can offer ready prompts: Plan my home gym, Pick a power rack for my room, Quiet cardio for an apartment, Compare two products and Beginner dumbbells. It can also read each of our buying guides with its ranked picks in order.

Good to know

It is free, with no sign-up or key. It only reads our published guides and never asks for personal details. Prices change, so the buy link shows the current price. Buy links go through strongsaga.com. Building an app? See the gear API docs. Not medical advice.
