Apple Health Advisor
Use this skill when a user wants to analyze an Apple Health export ZIP. The ZIP is too large to fit directly into context, so the skill uses a local CLI pipeline to parse and structure the data first.
This is one skill that ships two complementary reports:
- Default (recommended): generate BOTH reports — health report + training report, rendered into the same
output/ folder and cross-linked via an in-page link in the topbar. prepare runs once, then render runs twice.
- Explicit health-only: user says "只要健康报告" / "health report only" / similar → skip training render.
- Explicit training-only: user says "只要运动报告" / "training report only" / names a sport exclusively → skip health render.
Language Detection
Detect the user's language from their message:
- If the user writes in Chinese, use
--lang zh
- For all other languages, use
--lang en
The narrative language must match the language declared in insights.json:
- Health report:
narrativeContext.language
- Training report:
training.narrativeContext.language
Intent Routing
Default: generate both health + training reports. Only drop one when the user is explicit.
- Default (both) examples:
Analyze my Apple Health export
帮我分析 Apple Health 导出
Generate a report from my Apple Health export
- Health-only examples (skip training render):
Only generate the health report
只要健康报告
不用生成运动报告
- Training-only examples (skip health render):
Only generate the training report
只要运动报告
重点分析拳击训练状态 (user is only asking about a specific sport)
分析跑步和骑行训练趋势
Ambiguous-but-lean-training keywords still default to both reports (the training report alone is rarely enough context). The keywords below only matter as hints — they do NOT suppress the health report unless the user also says "只" / "only":
training, workout, 运动, 训练, 专项
- named sports such as
boxing, running, cycling, walking, hiking, strength training, 拳击, 跑步, 骑行, 力量训练
Your Role
Two roles share the same pipeline:
- Health management advisor:
- Integrate sleep, recovery, activity, and body metrics into an overall health view
- Prioritize cross-metric reasoning over metric-by-metric reporting
- Training status advisor:
- Judge load, recovery support, consistency, and sport-specific trends
- Give actionable training-management advice without pretending to be Garmin or a coach writing a periodized plan
Workflow
- Confirm the input is an official Apple Health export ZIP and that the main XML has
HealthData as its root node.
- Run local
prepare once with the correct --lang, producing summary.json and insights.json.
- Read
summary.json, then insights.json.
- Decide which reports to produce (default = both unless the user is explicit; see Intent Routing).
- For each selected report, write the narrative JSON:
- health:
report.llm.json
- training:
training.report.llm.json
- Run
render for each selected report:
- health: default
render
- training:
render --type training
- Both HTML reports share the same
output/ folder. The topbar carries a cross-link between them, so the user can jump back and forth. File names are fixed (report.html ↔ training.report.html) — do not rename.
insights.json Keys You Must Use

training.summary.trainingLoad |
CTL / ATL / TSB snapshot + 30-day & 90-day CTL deltas (null when < 28 days of data or < 6 workouts) |
training.sports[] |
Top sports (dormant ones filtered, topSportCount configurable via --top-sports, default 5) with recent/baseline/trailing/all-time windows, recovery-after-workout, consistency, tags |
training.charts[] |

training.narrativeContext |
Training-report audience, goal, schema version, boundaries |
Commands
Default flow — prepare once, render twice so the folder contains both report sets. Pass --with-cross-link to both render calls so the topbar/footer cross-link lights up; omit it on single-report runs to avoid a dead link to a file that will not exist.
# 1. Prepare once (shared by both reports)
# Optional: --top-sports N to cap the training-report sport list (default 5)
npx apple-health-analyst prepare /path/to/export.zip --lang en --out ./output
# 2. Health render (fixed file name: report.html)
npx apple-health-analyst render \
--insights ./output/insights.json \
--narrative ./output/report.llm.json \
--with-cross-link \
--out ./output
# 3. Training render (fixed file name: training.report.html)
npx apple-health-analyst render \
--type training \
--insights ./output/insights.json \
--narrative ./output/training.report.llm.json \
--with-cross-link \
--out ./output
The two HTML files auto-link to each other via the topbar and footer only when --with-cross-link is set on both renders. Always write both into the same --out directory to keep the cross-links working.
Single-report mode: if the user is explicit about only wanting the health or the training report (see Intent Routing), run render once without --with-cross-link — otherwise the lone HTML will point at a companion file that never gets generated.
Health Narrative Framework
Use the existing health schema in references/report-llm-json.md.
Prioritize:
crossMetric.compositeAssessment
crossMetric.sleepRecoveryLink
crossMetric.sleepConsistency
crossMetric.activityRecoveryBalance
crossMetric.recoveryCoherence
crossMetric.patterns
riskFlags and notableChanges
Health writing rules:
- Every conclusion must cite concrete values or dates from
summary.json or insights.json
key_findings must be cross-metric, not single-metric trivia
actions_next_2_weeks must specify time, frequency, or numeric targets
questions_for_doctor must be data-driven and specific
Training Narrative Framework
Use the training schema in references/training-report-llm-json.md.
Prioritize:
training.summary.trainingState and training.summary.readiness
training.summary.trainingLoad — the CTL / ATL / TSB snapshot (primary load signal)
training.summary.loadTrend and training.summary.recoverySupport (legacy 30d-vs-90d views, use as corroboration)
training.sports[] in descending importance
training.charts[]
dataGaps[] and missing metric coverage
Training writing rules:
- Use neutral wording inspired by public training-status concepts (CTL / ATL / TSB), not branded Garmin claims
- When
training.summary.trainingLoad is non-null, lead with CTL direction + TSB value; cite ctlDelta30dPct and ctlDelta90dPct rather than the legacy 30-day-vs-90-day numbers
- If
trainingLoad is null, fall back to loadTrend and say so explicitly (e.g. "数据覆盖不足 28 天,暂以 30 天对比为准")
- Sport sections must focus on the actual top sports in
training.sports[]
- Only discuss heart rate or distance when the structured data includes those metrics
- Recommendations are for training management and health monitoring, not race plans or diagnosis
Required Reading Before Writing Narrative
summary.json
insights.json
- references/report-llm-json.md for health mode
- references/training-report-llm-json.md for training mode
- references/safety-boundaries.md
- references/analysis-framework.md
Constraints
- Only reference facts from
summary.json and insights.json
- Do not fabricate sport metrics, chart IDs, or medical risks
- Provide health management and training adjustment advice, not diagnoses or treatment plans
- If a module is
insufficient_data, say so plainly
- Do not generate final HTML directly; write the narrative JSON first, then run
render
Error Handling
- ZIP format error: if
prepare cannot find the HealthData XML, verify the user provided the official Apple Health export ZIP. The main XML filename is not fixed and may be localized (for example 导出.xml) or appear as mojibake. export_cda.xml / ClinicalDocument is auxiliary only and should not be used as the main analysis input.
- Out of memory: large ZIPs may need
--from and --to
- Health narrative validation failure: verify
report.llm.json matches schema v2
- Training narrative validation failure: verify
training.report.llm.json matches schema v1 and only references existing sport/chart IDs
- npm cache EPERM: use
npm_config_cache=./.npm-cache
- Sandbox/policy rejection: do not chain destructive commands with
prepare / render; create directories separately if needed
Output Files
Always produced by prepare:
summary.json
insights.json
Health render (file names are fixed; do not rename):
report.llm.json
report.md
report.html
Training render (file names are fixed; do not rename):
training.report.llm.json
training.report.md
training.report.html
The two HTML reports cross-link via the topbar and footer using relative paths (./report.html ↔ ./training.report.html). Keep both in the same output/ directory for the links to work.
