HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/nikopol666-mealie-mcp/create-recipe ## Facts - Tool: `create_recipe` - Server: Mealie MCP Server (`nikopol666/mealie-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/nikopol666-mealie-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/nikopol666/mealie-mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "create_recipe", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why create_recipe is rated Medium This tool creates a new recipe, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, move money, or trigger uncontrolled external operations. The blast radius is low—a mistaken recipe creation can be easily deleted or corrected. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'create_recipe' and description 'Create a new recipe in Mealie' indicate creation of new data records." ## Use case AI agents use create_recipe to create or update resources in Mealie MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context.
