queeliusI built Chartfold because I wanted to ask questions about my own medical records and couldn't.
It loads EHR exports (Epic, MEDITECH, athenahealth) into SQLite, then exposes them to Claude via MCP. Visit prep, lab trend analysis, "what changed since my last appointment" queries.
Open source, all local, your data stays yours.
pip install chartfold

Something that changed my approach to doctor appointments: bringing actual data instead of trying to remember everything on the spot. When I started logging my symptoms daily, I stopped blanking out the moment they asked how I've been doing. Even just a week of notes makes such a difference.
