Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that gives an AI assistant Forkbit nutrition data: search foods, look up nutrients, parse meals and analyze recipes.

What you can do
  • Search foods and look up their nutrient values
  • Parse free-text meals into food items
  • Analyze recipes for nutritional content
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs nutrition facts while helping with meal planning, diet tracking, recipe evaluation or food comparisons.
Requirements
Runs as a local process over stdio, installed from the npm package @forkbit/mcp (Node.js). Requires a Forkbit API key supplied in the FORKBIT_API_KEY environment variable, obtainable from the Forkbit dashboard. Network access to Forkbit is implied.
Before you install
The server needs a Forkbit API key stored in FORKBIT_API_KEY; keep it out of shared configs. Food and meal queries are sent to Forkbit's service, so avoid entering personal health details you would not share with that provider. No tools are listed in the manifest, so review the actual tool set after installing.

Installation

In SourceWeft

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

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
