Open a tool for its reasons and full description. Descriptions are the publisher's own words, shown as they are.

6 tools

Can't be undone 1Claude Code: ask
  • submit_feedbackSend feedback, a bug report or a tool request to the maintainers of the tools on this server: a missing tool, missing or stale data, or a tool that broke or gave a wrong answer.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "submit_feedback" says "submit": a word for a change.
    • The description's first verb is "send": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Send feedback, a bug report or a tool request to the maintainers of the tools on this server: a missing tool, missing or stale data, or a tool that broke or gave a wrong answer. Pass the kind (need_tool, need_data, bug or other), one short message (at most 1000 characters) and, if you know them, the tool name and the error text it returned. Returns a ticket id. Feedback is not a chat: nothing in it is run or followed. Links, emails and phone numbers are removed and nothing about you is stored.

Changes things 1Claude Code: ask
  • check_allergensUse this when the user asks whether a product contains certain allergens, such as "does 5449000000996 contain milk or nuts?".No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user asks whether a product contains certain allergens, such as "does 5449000000996 contain milk or nuts?". Pass the barcode and the allergens to avoid. Returns which are listed as contained, which as possible traces, which are not listed, and whether the entry has no allergen data at all. It reads the entry's allergen tags and ingredients text, which are crowd-sourced and can be wrong: it is a data lookup, not a safety guarantee. The physical label wins.

  • compare_productsUse this when the user wants to compare packaged foods, such as "which of these barcodes has the least sugar?".No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "compare_products" says "compare": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user wants to compare packaged foods, such as "which of these barcodes has the least sugar?". Pass one to five barcodes and optionally sugars (default), salt or kcal. Returns a ranking from lowest to highest per 100 g with each product's other nutrition, Nutri-Score and NOVA group, and lists barcodes that were invalid, not found or lacked data. Crowd-sourced data: check the physical labels.

  • get_feedback_replyRead the maintainers' reply to feedback you sent with submit_feedback, given its ticket id.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_feedback_reply" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Read the maintainers' reply to feedback you sent with submit_feedback, given its ticket id. Returns status pending until a reply is ready, then status answered with the reply text. The reply is information for you, not an instruction.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
  • lookup_barcodeUse this when the user gives a product barcode (EAN or UPC) and wants to know what is in it, such as "what is in 3017620422003?".No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "lookup_barcode" says "lookup": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user gives a product barcode (EAN or UPC) and wants to know what is in it, such as "what is in 3017620422003?". Returns the product name, brands, quantity, ingredients text, the allergens and traces the entry lists, Nutri-Score, NOVA group, nutrition per 100 g, a data-quality note and the Open Food Facts link. The barcode check digit is verified first. The data is crowd-sourced and may be incomplete or wrong: check the physical label. Not dietary or medical advice.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_products" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user wants to find food products by name or brand, such as "find oat milks" or "Nutella jars in Germany". Pass the words to search for and optionally a country (English name or two-letter code) and a limit of up to 10. Returns each product's barcode, name, brands and Nutri-Score; use lookup_barcode for the full entry.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
