Available tools 8

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

recipe

create_recipe

Save a complete new recipe only after the user asks to save it. Supply ingredients, servings, times, and ordered directions; keep unknown, qualitative, or ranged quantities null and preserve their wording in raw_text. Never invent source facts or macros. Returns the saved recipe immediately; external services prepare its image and optional estimated nutrition in the background. Use get_recipe to check readiness.

get_recipe

Read a recipe from the connected household, including ingredients, directions, and source. Supply version_id for a specific saved version or omit it for the current recipe. Display display_text as the current ingredient wording; raw_text is original source wording. Keep version_id, version_revision, and ingredient_id values for update_recipe.

update_recipe

Update an existing recipe as a named version only after the user reviews the changes and asks to save them. First use get_recipe; copy version_id and version_revision into the expected fields. Submit the complete revised recipe: omitted ingredients and directions are removed. Map existing ingredient_id values to source_ingredient_id; use null for new ingredients. Keep current display_text and preserve qualitative or ranged quantities as null. Retains the recipe ID, image, source, earlier versions, and versions used by planned meals. External services may prepare optional nutrition and search updates. On version_conflict, read and review again before a new operation; never silently rebase or create a duplicate.

grocery

add_grocery_item

Add a grocery item to the connected household's private grocery list in Brie.

get_grocery_list

Read the connected household's grocery list. shop-now covers Upcoming; all-planned includes future planned meals. Returns paginated results; follow next_offset until null to retrieve the complete list.

import

get_import_status

Check an import job by ID. Report its status; if it needs more information, direct the user to the import in Brie. Poll this job rather than importing again.

import_recipe

Import a public recipe URL or supplied recipe text when the user asks to save it, preserving its creator and source. Returns a background job; check it with get_import_status. Use create_recipe for a new recipe developed in the conversation.

recipes

search_recipes

Search the connected household's saved recipes. Returns matches with sources and saved version IDs. Use get_recipe for ingredients and directions.
