Server tool list (5)

Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

search-recipesSearch Culiplan's public recipe catalogue by keyword, cuisine, ingredient, difficulty, dietary requirements, or time. Returns recipe titles, descriptions, images, and slugs suitable for linking to the recipe detail page.
get-recipeFetch the full detail of a single Culiplan recipe by its URL slug or ID. Returns the complete recipe including title, description, ingredients (ordered), step-by-step instructions, images with CDN URLs, dietary restriction tags, categories, tags, author info, and optional nutrition data. NOTE: Ingredient scaling by servings is NOT supported by the backing route — the recipe is always returned with its stored serving count.
find-recipes-by-ingredientsFind Culiplan recipes you can cook with ingredients you already have on hand. Pass a list of ingredients (`have`) and the tool returns matching public recipes ranked by how many of your ingredients each recipe uses. Use `avoid` to exclude recipes containing allergens or disliked ingredients. Use `maxMissing` to control strictness: 0 returns only recipes that use exclusively your ingredients; 3 (default) tolerates up to 3 extra ingredients per recipe. Each result includes a `score` (0–1) and `matchedCount` / `missingCount` so the agent can explain the match quality to the user. This is the primary tool for "what can I cook with X, Y, Z" queries.
find-recipes-by-cuisine-and-seasonFind Culiplan recipes by cuisine style and/or season. Examples: "Italian summer recipes", "warming winter soups", "Mexican spring dishes". Best-effort: cuisine and season are combined into a free-text keyword search over recipe titles and descriptions. Well-known cuisine names (Italian, Mexican, Thai, Japanese, French, Indian, Mediterranean) and seasonal terms (summer, winter, autumn, spring) match well in practice. Provide cuisine, season, or both. At least one is required. For ingredient-based discovery, use find-recipes-by-ingredients instead. For open-ended search (with difficulty, dietary, or time filters), use search-recipes.
get-shared-week-planFetch a publicly shared Culiplan meal plan by its share token. Returns the full week plan including title, description, author, cover image, nutrition summary (calories/macros per day), all meal slots for each day (breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack) with the recipe references in each slot, engagement stats (views, adoptions, ratings), and diet/cuisine/goal tags. Use the share token from a culiplan.com/week-plans/<token> URL. PUBLIC plans are accessible without authentication. SHARED plans require the caller to have been explicitly granted access.
