Return the installed version of the mcp-mealie server.
AI agents call get_server_version to retrieve information from Mcp Mealie without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves system information (server version) without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal security risk. Even if misused by an AI agent, the impact is limited to information disclosure of a version number.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_server_version' and description states 'Return the installed version of the mcp-mealie server' — a simple query operation that retrieves version metadata with no side effects.
