Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server that looks up packaged food by barcode for allergens, additives and nutrition, and takes free data requests.

What you can do
  • Look up a packaged food by barcode and get ingredients, allergens, traces, additives, Nutri-Score, NOVA processing group and per-100g nutrition
  • Describe in your own words the data you want, for any topic, and learn whether a service supplies it and at which endpoint
  • Read an aggregate demand report of what agents have requested, most-requested first, including categories nothing serves yet
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to answer whether a person can eat a given packaged product, or when you want to check whether a data source exists for a topic before building or buying one.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no authentication, environment variables or headers declared. Network access to the hosted endpoint is required.
Before you install
Food data comes from Open Food Facts, which is crowd-sourced, so coverage is uneven by country and product and entries may be incomplete or wrong; verify allergens and ingredients against the physical label. Requests are catalogued in aggregate, though the tool states nothing identifying is stored.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open MCPFax Food Facts in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.mcpscores%2Ffood-facts/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

request_data

Tell us what data you are looking for (free)

FREE, no payment. Describe in your own words the data you are trying to buy — anything, not just food — and get back whether we operate a service that supplies it, with the MCP endpoint if so. Every request is catalogued so repeatedly-requested data gets built. Nothing identifying is stored, only the words of the request.

Parametersneedrequired

demand_report

What agents are asking for most (free)

FREE, no payment. The aggregate of what agents have told us they are looking for, most-requested first, with the categories nothing available yet serves.

Parametersdays

food_by_barcode

Packaged food facts by barcode

Look up a packaged food by its barcode and get the fields that answer "can this person eat this?" — ingredients, allergens, traces, additives, Nutri-Score, NOVA processing group and per-100g nutrition. Data is from Open Food Facts, which is crowd-sourced and openly licensed: coverage is uneven by country and a product can be listed with most nutrition empty, so every response carries a completeness flag and missing values are null rather than estimated. A barcode not in the database returns not_found and is NOT charged. Costs $0.005 USDC per call via x402 on Base.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
