Overview

What is HowToCook-MCP Server?

HowToCook-MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server built on the Anduin2017/HowToCook dataset. It enables AI assistants to recommend recipes, query dish details, and plan weekly meals for users of MCP-compatible clients like Claude and Cursor.

How to use HowToCook-MCP Server?

Install Node.js 16.0.0+, then clone the repository or install globally via npm install -g howtocook-mcp. Configure the MCP client (e.g., Cursor) with the server name howtocook-mcp and the command npx -y howtocook-mcp. Start the server with npm start or run directly with node build/index.js. Use --transport <stdio|http|sse> and --port <number> to customize the transport and port (defaults: stdio, port 3000).

Key features of HowToCook-MCP Server
