概览

AI 生成的概览

读取密歇根大学食堂的实时菜单、营业时间、菜品属性、过敏原与营养信息,供助手查询。

可以做什么
  • 列出十座食堂的地址、联系方式、无麸质食品柜情况以及当前是否在供餐
  • 按餐次、档口和菜品获取某座食堂的菜单,含属性、过敏原、营养密度与碳足迹等级
  • 按菜名在全部或指定食堂搜索,并按过敏原、属性、营养素、热量或碳足迹筛选菜单
  • 查询某天的供餐时段及每周固定时间表,并找出当前正在供餐的食堂
  • 获取单道菜的完整营养面板,并以资源形式读取食堂清单与过敏原/属性分类表
适用场景
适合学生、教职工和访客询问密歇根大学某座食堂正在供应什么、哪些菜是纯素、清真或无麸质、某道菜的热量或钠含量,以及食堂何时营业。它只覆盖一所学校,与密歇根大学餐饮无关的问题用处不大。
运行要求
可作为托管的 Streamable HTTP 端点使用,也可通过 npx 在本地运行,需要 Node.js 20.18.1 或更高版本;无需账号、API 密钥或身份验证。需要能访问餐饮网站的网络。可选环境变量可调整 User-Agent、基础网址、时区、超时、缓存目录和范围抓取上限。

README

umich-dining-mcp

[npm] [CI] [Live site]

An MCP server for the dining halls of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. It answers what is being served, which dishes are vegan or halal, what a dish contains, how many calories it has, and when each hall is open.

Every answer is read live from dining.umich.edu. Pages are kept in memory for a few minutes so that ten questions cost one visit, but nothing is written to disk and no menu is mirrored.

TransportsLocal stdio and hosted Streamable HTTP
RuntimeNode.js 20.18.1 or newer

Install

bash
npm install -g umich-dining-mcp

or run it without installing anything:

bash
npx -y umich-dining-mcp

Claude Code

bash
claude mcp add umich-dining -- npx -y umich-dining-mcp

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "umich-dining": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "umich-dining-mcp"]    }  }}

VS Code

.vscode/mcp.json:

Any other client that starts MCP servers over stdio takes the same mcpServers entry as Cursor, with npx -y umich-dining-mcp as the command.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
list_locationsThe ten halls with address, phone, e-mail, map link, today's service periods, whether they are open right now, and whether they have a gluten-free pantry.
get_menuThe menu of one hall for the meal it is serving right now: meals, stations and dishes, with the coded traits and allergens, the density and carbon tiers, the calories and the serving size. Name one meal or several to get them instead.
search_dishesFind dishes by name, in the halls that are named or across all of them (case-insensitive substring match), on one day or over a range.
filter_dishesFilter the menus by allergen, trait, nutrient density, carbon footprint, nutrients, calories and sodium, in the halls that are named or across all of them, on one day or over a range.
list_nutrition_fieldsThe supported nutrient names, their units and the Daily Value basis of the micronutrients.
get_hoursThe service periods of a day plus the regular weekly schedule. A hall that cannot be read is reported in failures; the others are still returned.
find_open_nowWhich halls are serving at a given time of day.
get_item_nutritionThe full nutrition panel of a single dish.

Resources

ResourceContent
umich://dining-hallsThe hall registry as JSON, with the code of every hall.

The response contract

The rows of search_dishes and filter_dishes carry small integers instead of names, and a key block at the top of the response maps every code back to its slug. The key lists only what that response uses. The codes are frozen for the life of the contract.

json
{  "key": { "halls": { "1": "bursley" }, "meals": { "3": "Lunch" },           "stations": { "7": "Grill" }, "traits": { "5": "vegan" },           "allergens": { "7": "milk" } },  "units": { "calories": "kcal", "protein": "g" },  "note": "Allergen codes: check key.allergens before reporting; site data is advisory.",  "date": "2026-10-21",  "matches": [    [1, 3, 7, "Grilled Chicken", [5], [7], 3, 320, "1 Each (113g)", 113, 32]  ]}

A row is an array; its fixed positions are named in each tool description and the variable nutrient tail is carried once per response as nutrients. The member names of a named row are two and a half times the data of the row, repeated on every row: a named row cost 216 bytes, an array row costs 72.

  • The halls are 1..10 in the order of the registry below, the meals are 1 (Breakfast), 2 (Brunch), 3 (Lunch) and 4 (Dinner), the allergens are 1..15 and the six boolean traits are 1..6 (glutenfree, halal, kosher, spicy, vegan, vegetarian). A meal label the site invents takes the next free code, from 5. The stations have a frozen vocabulary too: the same station carries the same code in every response, so a code can be remembered.
  • mhealthyTier is 1 (Nutrient Dense Low) to 5 (Nutrient Dense High). The scale is fixed and described in the tool descriptions and in umich://taxonomy.
  • A row carries the carbon tier (carbonFootprint) only when the call constrains it with max_carbon or sorts by carbonFootprint; otherwise it is left out to keep the row small.
  • The traits array carries the six boolean traits only; the density tier is lifted into its own numeric field.
  • The units map gives the unit of every nutrient the response returns. A micronutrient is an amount like every other nutrient: the site publishes the percent of the Daily Value, and the row carries the amount that percent stands for — 15 %DV of an 18 mg Daily Value of iron is 2.7 in mg. The percent is still available under its own name, %DV, in a threshold.
  • A search or a filter takes the halls it covers: one hall, several halls, or no hall at all for every one of them. The rows come back in the order that was asked for, and limit takes the first of them: the default is 50 rows, and the answer says how many matched and how to see the rest.
  • The row always carries the calories and the serving size. Every other nutrient, the sodium included, is asked for by name with include_nutrients — the sodium has nothing that makes it more interesting than the protein. A nutrient a filter constrained is always returned, whether or not it was asked for.
  • A single-day response carries date; a range response carries dateRange and each row carries the dates it appeared on.
  • A dish without a published value is reported as null, never as zero. A trace or a < value is not a value at all.

get_menu and the sweep tools return the same compact row, so a row means the same thing wherever it is read. get_item_nutrition is the tool that returns the raw nutrition panel, of one dish.

A whole menu is far smaller this way: the menu of South Quad went from 60,266 bytes to 8,817, and the menu of Bursley from 42,141 to 6,573. The panel of a single dish is one call to get_item_nutrition.

The id is what get_menu, get_hours and search_dishes expect. The code of a hall is its position in this list, counted from one.

Dates

The site publishes menus from three days ago to fourteen days ahead. Outside that range the site does not answer with an error, it answers with a different day's menu, so a date outside the range is refused before anything is fetched, with a message that names the range the site offers. When the page states which day it rendered, that day is compared with the one you asked for and a mismatch is an error rather than a wrong answer.

A range is asked for with from and to; to omitted means the last published day. The two cannot be combined with date. A range that does not fit in one call is read in windows with offset; the coverage block of the answer names the offset of the next window.

Time

Every time the server reports is campus time: the time zone of Ann Arbor, America/Detroit, which is Eastern Standard Time and Eastern Daylight Time in the summer. The day the site publishes, the mealtimes, and the "today" of a cache entry are all read in that zone.

The zone of the machine the server runs on does not matter. A server in Chicago and a server in UTC answer the same question the same way, and the test suite checks that by running the meal selection under several host zones. Set UMICH_DINING_TIMEZONE only to point the server at a mirror of the site in another zone.

Filters

ParameterMeaning
exclude_allergensKeeps only the dishes that do not carry any of the listed allergens.
require_traitsKeeps only the dishes that carry every listed trait.
min_mhealthyMinimum nutrient-density tier, 1..5 (3 = "Nutrient Dense Medium or better").
max_carbonMaximum carbon footprint: 1 (low), 2 (medium) or 3 (high).
nutrientsA range per nutrient, e.g. {"protein": {"min": 20, "unit": "g"}}. The unit defaults to the nutrient's own and is checked.
include_nutrientsThe nutrients to return, by canonical key or by published name, or all. Defaults to the ones the filter used; a constrained nutrient is always returned.
queryA case-insensitive substring of the dish name.
meal, stationNarrow the sweep to one meal or one station.
sort_by, sort_orderThe field to sort on and the direction.

A constraint on a nutrient excludes the dishes that publish no value for it: an unknown value is never a zero.

The cost of a range

A range query reads one page per hall per day, and the site is fetched at most two pages a second. A query that needs more upstream pages than UMICH_DINING_MAX_RANGE_FETCHES (default 12) returns the rows it could serve and a coverage block that says how much was served:

json
"coverage": { "requested": 30, "cached": 18, "fetchedNow": 12, "pending": 0, "failed": 0,              "stale": 0, "offset": 0, "pages": 30, "nextOffset": null }

The numbers add up: every page the query asked for was cached, fetched, left pending or failed. nextOffset is where the rest of the range begins, so a wide range is read in windows: ask again with offset set to that number.

The persistent cache exists for this: the pages of the published window are kept on disk and warmed in the background, so a range query is usually served without touching the site.

Allergens

Allergen data is only as good as the site. The menu page flags the allergens the kitchen reported for a dish, but it does not distinguish "contains" from "may contain", there are no ingredient lists, and a missing flag is not an absence of the allergen. The site's own guidance is: "Look for the signs posted near each food serving area for a list of menu options with allergens highlighted in red." "Gluten Free" means the dish is made without gluten, not that it is safe for someone with coeliac disease. Dedicated gluten-free pantries exist at South Quad, East Quad, Mosher-Jordan and Bursley.

The caveat is in the description of every tool that returns allergen data and in umich://taxonomy. A response that carries allergens repeats one line reminding the reader to resolve the codes; the long caveat is not repeated in every body. No tool ever claims that a dish is safe.

Two further points about the traits, because the site is careful about them: a vegan dish is reported as vegetarian as well, since the site keeps the two apart, and no other trait implies another (halal does not imply vegetarian, and neither does kosher).

How it treats the site

dining.umich.edu is somebody else's website, so the server stays gentle with it:

  • Two requests in flight, 500 ms apart at most. The limit is global to the process.
  • A cache with in-flight de-duplication. Ten questions about the same hall cost one request. Today's menu is cached for 15 minutes, a future menu for 6 hours, a past menu for 24 hours and the weekly hours for 24 hours.
  • Stale on error. If the site cannot be reached and a cached copy exists, the copy is served and marked as stale instead of failing the question.
  • One User-Agent. The site answers HTTP 200 to a small set of clients only; python-requests/2.32.3 is the one that has been measured to work, while a generic fetch agent and a headless browser both get 403. It is not the server's real identity, which is why it is configurable.

Occupancy

get_dining_occupancy reports real-time fullness for the halls that carry sensors (Bursley, East Quad, South Quad, Mosher-Jordan, Twigs at Oxford):

json
{ "hall": "bursley" }

It returns the current count, daily patron flow, total capacity, percent full, and the time of the reading. A hall with no sensor is simply omitted.

Short forms

Hall names, nutrients, and traits accept short, case-insensitive aliases:

  • Halls: mojo, south, east, lawyers, cook, twigs, wovlerine, ...
  • Nutrients: cals, kcals, carbs, fiber, protein/prot, na/salt, ...
  • Traits: gf, veg.

Descriptions are unchanged; the server resolves the alias before validating.

Data source

Menus, hours, locations, nutrition, and occupancy are read from the U-M dining mobile API, with the public site scraper retained as a fallback. Answers are still read live and cached for a few minutes.

filter_dishes

Filter dishes

Filter the dining hall menus by allergen, trait, nutrient density, carbon footprint and calories. exclude_allergens removes dishes that carry any of the listed allergens; require_traits keeps only dishes that carry every listed trait; min_mhealthy is the lowest acceptable nutrient-density tier (3 = Nutrient Dense Medium or better); max_carbon is the highest acceptable carbon footprint; max_calories and max_sodium_mg are numeric caps that exclude dishes without published values. Allergen data is only as good as the site. The menu page flags the allergens the kitchen reported for a dish, but the data does not distinguish "contains" from "may contain", there are no ingredient lists, and it is not safe to treat a missing flag as an absence of the allergen. The site's own guidance is: "Look for the signs posted near each food serving area for a list of menu options with allergens highlighted in red." The "Gluten Free" trait means the dish is made without gluten, not that it is safe for someone with coeliac disease. Dedicated gluten-free pantries exist only at South Quad, East Quad, Mosher-Jordan and Bursley.
