What you can do with Edamam

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Nutrition, 3 operations

  • POSTanalyze_nutrition

    Analyzes a recipe's ingredient list and returns complete nutritional information.

  • POSTget_food_nutrients

    Retrieves detailed nutrient breakdown for specified food items and quantities.

  • GETget_ingredient_nutrition

    Returns nutritional information for a single ingredient line.

Recipe, 3 operations

  • GETget_recipe

    Retrieves detailed information about a specific recipe.

  • GETget_recipe_by_uri

    Retrieves one or more recipes directly by their unique URIs.

  • GETsearch_recipes

    Searches through millions of recipes with powerful filtering options.

Food, 2 operations

  • GETautocomplete_food

    Provides autocomplete suggestions for food names.

  • GETsearch_food_database

    Searches the food database for matching items with nutritional data.

Meal plan, 1 operation

  • POSTmeal_planning

    Generates a personalized meal plan based on dietary requirements and preferences.

Shopping list, 1 operation

  • POSTshopping_list

    Generates a consolidated shopping list from recipe and food item entries.

Use Edamam from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Edamam in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Edamam operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)
[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"
Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

How to connect Edamam

  1. Create your workspace

    Sign up free. Nothing to install.

  2. Connect Edamam once

    Add your Edamam connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.

  3. Describe the job in chat

    The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
