Thanks for the great MCP.\n\nI have a suggestion regarding the returned data format. Right now, the responses are delivered as raw JSON strings. For many LLM use cases, these JSON keys and structures consume unnecessary tokens without adding much semantic value.\n\nIt would be great to have the option to receive data in a more compact, context-friendly format (like structured text or simplified Markdown). This would help keep the context window clean and reduce costs/latency.\n\nWhat do you think \n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/chrisdoc/hevy-mcp/issues/271) · 2026-02-25 · closed · external user · 6 comments\n\n### Most recent\n\n### Thank you — works great with Claude Desktop\n\nHello. \nUsed hevy-mcp today via Claude Desktop's custom connector to design and inject a full workout routine into Hevy end to end.

Two consequences:\n\n1. **Every MCP call costs two Hevy API calls** — the validation probe plus the actual tool call — doubling pressure on Hevy's rate limits for busy clients.\n2. **Any validation failure that is not 401/403 becomes an opaque 502** (\"Unable to validate the Hevy API key\").
