A remote MCP server that lets an assistant look up calories for a food or meal described in plain language, using USDA-sourced nutrition data.
What you can do
Look up calorie information for a food or meal from a natural-language description such as a quantity and unit, or a plain food name. Get back the matched food, its calories, the total for the amount given, and related details.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to estimate calories for everyday foods and portions during nutrition, diet or meal-planning conversations, without building your own food database.
Requirements
A remote endpoint at api.kcaldata.com over streamable HTTP; no packages, environment variables or headers are declared. Network access is needed.
Before you install
No authentication is declared, so requests are presumably unauthenticated; avoid sending personal or sensitive information in food descriptions. Nutrition values are estimates based on matched foods and may not reflect the exact item or portion.
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/io.github.kcaldata%2Fkcaldata/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.
Look up calorie information for a food or meal.
Accepts natural-language descriptions including quantity and unit,
e.g. "2 large eggs", "8 oz salmon", "1 cup rice", "3 slices bacon",
or a plain food name like "banana". Returns the matched food, its
calories, the total for the amount given, and how it was calculated.
Free tier: 100 calls/day. Beyond that, pay $0.005 USDC per call (x402).
