WHAT IT DOES

What bulk_tag_recipes does on Mealie MCP Server

AI agents use bulk_tag_recipes to create or update resources in Mealie MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Mealie MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why bulk_tag_recipes is rated Medium

This tool modifies multiple recipes by applying tags to them. It is a bulk write operation that updates metadata on existing records. While it affects multiple recipes at once (increasing blast radius), tagging is reversible (tags can be removed), so it does not qualify as Destructive. The bulk nature elevates severity to medium.

bulk_tag_recipes Rate-limited

bulk_tag_recipes stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
