Nutrition MCP — wraps Open Food Facts API (free, no auth)

VerifiedStreamable HTTPWeb executableLocation & Lifestyle

Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP endpoint that wraps the free Open Food Facts API, letting an assistant look up nutrition data through the Pipeworx gateway.

What you can do
Look up food and nutrition information sourced from the Open Food Facts API through the Pipeworx gateway. Ask questions in plain language via the ask_pipeworx tool, which selects a tool and fills in arguments automatically. Connect either to the nutrition-only endpoint or to the full gateway covering all listed data sources.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to answer questions about food products or nutrition facts without building your own Open Food Facts integration, and you are comfortable routing requests through a third-party gateway.
Requirements
A remote MCP client that supports streamable HTTP, pointed at the gateway URL. No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared. Network access to the gateway is required.
Before you install
Requests go through the Pipeworx gateway rather than directly to Open Food Facts, so queries are visible to that third party. The README lists no tools, so the exact capabilities are not documented here. No authentication is declared, so do not send sensitive data.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open nutrition 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/io.github.pipeworx-io%2Fnutrition/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

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nutrition": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nutrition/mcp"
    }
  }
}

ToolDescription

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "nutrition": {      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nutrition/mcp"    }  }}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "pipeworx": {      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"    }  }}

Using with ask_pipeworx

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Nutrition data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
