Body Composition

• Pull the latest measurement from withings-mcp.
• For direct composition-only trend questions, pull 14-30 days and compare recent movement to the prior equivalent period when useful.
• When invoked from body-cadence-review, use the exact review and comparison windows provided by the caller, such as this week vs last week or this month vs last month.
• Do not silently convert a cadence review into a rolling 14-30 day comparison unless it is explicitly labeled as supplemental context.
• Focus on trend lines, not isolated weigh-ins. Single-day weight fluctuations are noise.
• Contextualize with Garmin training volume when it helps explain recomposition.
• Track recomposition patterns such as fat decreasing while muscle is stable or rising.
• Flag when the trend direction moves away from goals even if scale weight looks superficially positive.

Output Contract

If structured output is needed, keep the metric payload aligned with ../../schemas/body-composition.json. Present the findings in prose under this shape:

• Current measurements - latest body composition values
• Trend - the direction of weight, fat, and muscle over the active window
• Interpretation - whether the pattern suggests progress, stall, or regression
• Goal alignment - how the trend maps to stated body-composition targets
• Caveats - sparse weigh-ins, measurement noise, or missing training context

Escalation Rules

Stay in body-composition when the user explicitly wants composition-only depth or when an upstream workflow already scoped the task to body measurements or recomposition.

Escalate to:

• body-diet when intake adherence is the main explanatory variable
• body-exercise when training execution is the main explanatory variable
• body-data-qa for ad-hoc cross-domain comparisons
• body-cadence-review for ritualized multi-period reviews

Resources

Only search 400 Resources/ when this specialist is being used directly for a composition-only deep dive. When invoked from body-data-qa or body-cadence-review, let the upstream workflow decide whether resource-backed recommendations are needed.

If a direct deep dive needs resource support:

1. Use find and grep to locate files related to the current query
2. Read .md and .txt files directly
3. For PDFs, extract text and scan for relevant sections
4. For Excel files, read and parse relevant sheets
5. Prioritize newer files over older ones
6. Cite which resource informed your recommendation

Search broadly — file names may not be descriptive. Look at actual content.
