  • Brie connects your assistant to saved recipes, household meal plans and shared grocery lists. Search your recipe library, import recipe links or text, and save a higher-protein or vegetarian adaptation as a named recipe version while preserving the original source. Prepare dinners around your household's preferences, review the proposal, then save the plan and rebuild its groceries. Start with a Brie account on the web and activate your personal Plus or Pro plan, or an eligible trial. Existing subscribers use their current account. Plus starts at $4.99 USD/month, with a seven-day trial for eligible new subscribers; current pricing and renewal terms appear before payment. Household membership alone does not include personal assistant access. Household operations require OAuth and your permission for the selected household. Public discovery exposes tool descriptions only. Eight recipe and grocery tools are available by default; add X-Brie-Capabilities: planning-preview for the thirteen-tool catalog including reviewed meal planning. No private nutrition logs, grocery purchases or billing access.

  • Your Recipes, Beautifully Kept. weReci MCP server lets Claude and other MCP clients work with your personal weReci cookbook, the recipes you've imported from the web, social video and scanned family books. Interactive UI in the chat. weReci supports MCP Apps, so in clients that support it, tools return live views instead of plain text: recipe cards, shopping lists and your recipe graph. Clients without MCP Apps support get the same results as text. Find and read recipes: search your collection in plain language, open any recipe in full, or get an overview of what's in your cookbook. Cook with them: scale a recipe to any serving count, with cooking adjustments as well as amounts. Get substitution suggestions with ratios and caveats. Explore connections: browse your recipe graph (shared ingredients, techniques and cuisines), trace the connection between two recipes, and look up where a dish sits on the cuisine map. Themed collections: list the themed groups weReci curates from your cookbook, or ask it to reshuffle them. Shop: build a shopping list from one or more recipes, add or update items, and read the list back. Share: email a recipe to someone. Longer jobs like conceit reshuffles run in the background, with tools to check their progress. Everything is scoped to your own cookbook, or to a shared one you've joined.
