MCP

Coming Soon

Give your AI assistant direct access to the Salad.Now catalog. Search recipes, retrieve ingredients, and hand off a ready-to-checkout grocery cart — all through the Model Context Protocol. This page previews what is in development.

Use of MCP tools is subject to our Data API Terms.

Public MCP tools are not open yet. For updates and early-access interest, contact [email protected].

In development

A preview of read-only tools we are building for MCP-compatible assistants.

Search

Find salads in seconds

Filter by diet, prep time, or nutrition and get back clean slugs your assistant can use in follow-up calls.

Featured

Surface today's highlights

Pull the Salad of the Day and Salad of the Week with summaries and metadata — ideal for recommendations.

Recipes

Get the full recipe

Ingredients, quantities, prep steps, substitutions, and related salads returned in a single structured response.

Shopping

Hand off a grocery cart

Generate a cart-ready shopping list with retailer checkout links. Salad.Now never processes payment or fulfills orders.

Safety

Read-only by design

No credentials, no write operations, and strict rate limits — safe to expose to any assistant or agent.

Fast and consistent

The MCP server is backed by the same cached, structured catalog the site uses. Responses are fast, predictable, and designed to stay stable across updates.

Third-party services

Some tool responses link to external services such as retailer checkout. Those services are operated independently and governed by their own terms and policies.
