Overview

What is cookbook-mcp-server?

It is an MCP server that provides access to a collection of recipes from the HowToCook GitHub repository. It offers tools to list all dishes and retrieve individual cooking instructions, intended for use with MCP clients like AI coding assistants or IDEs.

Frequently asked questions

1

What tools does cookbook-mcp-server provide?

It provides `get_all_dishes` to list all dishes and `get_recipe` to retrieve a specific recipe.

2

What dependencies are required to run the server?

You need `uv` installed, and you must clone the HowToCook repository (dishes folder) to supply the cookbook data.

3

How do I switch between stdio and SSE transport?

By default the server uses stdio. To use SSE, change the `mcp.run()` call to `mcp.run(transport='sse')` and update the client configuration to use an `url` endpoint with the appropriate port.

4

Where does the cookbook data come from?

The data comes from the GitHub repository `https://github.com/Anduin2017/HowToCook/tree/master`—specifically the `dishes` folder, which must be cloned locally.

5

Does the server support authentication or other transports?

The README only documents stdio and SSE; no authentication mechanism is mentioned.
