About

MCP server for Cookidoo - search recipes, plan meals, manage shopping lists via Thermomix/Cookidoo

README

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that wraps the unofficial cookidoo-api library to let AI assistants interact with your Cookidoo account.

Features

  • Recipes -- get recipe details, manage custom recipes
  • Collections -- browse curated collections, create and manage custom collections
  • Calendar -- plan meals by adding/removing recipes on specific dates
  • Shopping List -- full shopping list management (ingredients, custom items, check-off)
  • Suggestions -- find recipes based on ingredients you have available
  • Account -- check user info and subscription status

Setup

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.13+
  • uv package manager
  • A Cookidoo account (cookidoo.com)

Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your credentials:

cp .env.example .env
[email protected]
COOKIDOO_PASSWORD=your-password

# Optional localization (defaults to ch / de-CH)
# COOKIDOO_COUNTRY_CODE=ch
# COOKIDOO_LANGUAGE=de-CH

Credentials can also be passed as environment variables directly (they take precedence over .env).

uv run cookidoo-mcp

# Test with MCP Inspector
uv run mcp dev src/cookidoo_mcp/server.py
