Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| get_recipeA | Get one recipe's full detail (ingredients, instructions, notes, times, tags) by its numeric id from search_recipes. On hosts that support MCP Apps (e.g. Claude Desktop) a Mela-styled card with the user's real photos renders inline automatically. Present the recipe text; the photos appear only in that card and are not provided to you as content, so do not describe or substitute images. Never use stock or web photos. |
| get_recipe_widget_dataD | App-only data feed for the Mela recipe card. The widget iframe calls this itself (Krea's get_job pattern) via a host-relayed tools/call after Claude Desktop strips structuredContent from the pushed tool-result. Never surfaced to the model, so the base64 photo data URIs stay out of model context. |
| search_recipesA | Full-text search the Mela recipe library. All words must match. Optional filters: tag name, favorite, want_to_cook. Returns id/title/tags/snippet (text only, no photos). Call get_recipe with a result's id to show the full recipe together with the user's real photos. |
| list_tagsA | List all recipe tags/categories with how many recipes carry each. |
