Tools (19)

preview_meal_planUse when the user asks to review a meal plan without adding it to RecipeBee. This chat-only, data-only tool never writes recipes or meal plans and does not render a RecipeBee card.
prepare_meal_plan_importUse only after the user explicitly asks to add a completed meal plan to RecipeBee. This stateful, data-only step checks private recipes for exact or possible matches and creates a short-lived import draft without creating recipes or a meal plan or rendering a RecipeBee card. Do not use for chat-only
commit_meal_plan_importUse after prepare_meal_plan_import. Submit exactly one decision for every recipe. Use use_existing only with a recipe ID returned by preparation and only after the user chooses it; otherwise use create_new. This creates one private meal plan and its entries atomically, then renders the final RecipeB
get_image_generation_batchRead the progress of an optional RecipeBee image-generation batch returned by a meal-plan import. This tool never starts, charges, or cancels image generation; the user must confirm the batch in RecipeBee.
list_saved_recipesBrowse or search the connected user's private RecipeBee recipe library. Use only when the user asks to browse or search saved recipes. Returns a small paginated summary; use show_recipe only for a recipe the user selects.
list_saved_meal_plansBrowse or search the connected user's private RecipeBee meal plans. Use only when the user asks to browse or search meal plans. Returns paginated summaries; use show_meal_plan only for a plan the user selects.
show_meal_planRead the selected private meal plan and its scheduled recipes. Use only after the user selects or names a plan. This tool is read-only and does not edit the plan.
open_recipebee_kitchenOpen the connected user's private recipe and meal-plan library in the ChatGPT sidebar. The app reads only the library section the user opens.
preview_recipeUse when the user asks to preview or review a complete recipe without saving it. Include realistic integer prep_time_minutes, cook_time_minutes, and total_time_minutes values in every complete recipe. Estimate them when the user does not specify times; use 0 only when that part genuinely takes no ti
attach_instruction_imageUse after a structured recipe is saved and the user asks to attach its photos. Use the returned canonical stage/action ID and latest content revision. Supply a transferable host file descriptor or accessible HTTPS image URL, only with established reuse permission. Do not scrape private chats or clai
update_recipe_contentUse only after reading the saved recipe with show_recipe and receiving a direct request to change its ingredients or instructions. Send the full content document and its current revision. Preserve existing section and item IDs for unchanged content; omitted sections or actions are deleted. New secti
get_instruction_imageRead one attachment operation returned by attach_instruction_image. Never resave the recipe to retry a photo. Use show_recipe after completion to refresh the full recipe view.
remove_instruction_imageUse only after the user asks to remove a specific stage or action photo. Read the latest recipe first and supply its content revision plus the photo operation ID. Removal is permanent for this photo; it does not change recipe text or require another photo.
save_recipeUse when the user explicitly asks to save a complete recipe privately. Include realistic integer prep_time_minutes, cook_time_minutes, and total_time_minutes values in every complete recipe. Estimate them when the user does not specify times; use 0 only when that part genuinely takes no time. Use co
save_recipe_with_imageSave a complete recipe privately and request RecipeBee image generation. Image generation may reserve existing RecipeBee image credits or consume a free-tier image allowance. On protocol 2026-07-28, the server requires an accepted confirmation form bound to these exact recipe and image options; imag
show_recipeUse after attach_recipe_image or generate_recipe_image to render the current authoritative private recipe and image status, or when the user explicitly asks to view an existing recipe. Do not call immediately after save_recipe or save_recipe_with_image because those tools already return the authorit
attach_recipe_imageUse when the user wants to attach an image generated or uploaded in the current MCP client conversation to an existing private RecipeBee recipe. Prefer the Apps SDK file input when MCP client supplies file with download_url and file_id. Use image_url only for a URL selected or uploaded in the Recipe
generate_recipe_imageRequest RecipeBee image generation for an existing private recipe. Generation may reserve existing RecipeBee image credits or consume a free-tier image allowance. On protocol 2026-07-28, the server requires an accepted confirmation form bound to this recipe and these image options; image_generation_
get_recipe_imageCheck the private AI image status for an existing RecipeBee recipe after image generation was requested.
