(2004) equation the DGE uses, scaled by a PA - `calculate_dri` — Return the full Dietary Reference Intakes table for a life stage — recommended intakes and tolerable upper limits for macronutrients, vitamins and minerals (IOM - `search_recipes` — Search the ~1,072-recipe USDA MyPlate Kitchen collection (public domain). Filter by free-text query, food group, dish category, max calories and minimum rating. - `get_recipe` — Fetch one recipe by its slug: ingredients, directions, full USDA nutrition table, MyPlate food-group amounts, serving size, yield, rating, image and source attr ## Install **Verdict: review** — Installable, but 2 things to check first: No CVE coverage: this entry has no npm/PyPI coordinates to query OSV against, so "no known vulnerabilities" is not a claim that can be made about it. **Cautions** (coverage gaps and advisories — never blocking) - No CVE coverage: this entry has no npm/PyPI coordinates to query OSV against, so "no known vulnerabilities" is not a claim that can be made about it. - No publisher has proved control of this listing; it is indexed, not vouched for. **Config** (claude-code): ```json "{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"nutrition\": {\n \"type\": \"http\",\n \"url\": \"https://mcp.myplate.food/mcp\"\n }\n }\n}" ``` ## Blast radius Contained to moderate — no credential declaration found, from the publisher, the upstream registry, or the README. Known so far: runs on someone else's infrastructure; read-only tool surface. - Floor 9, ceiling 27 (tier: unknown) - `unknown` means the floor and ceiling land in different bands — not measured enough to name one. It does not mean low. - This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score. ## Machine-readable views of this entry - Signed JSON: https://forgeregistry.com/api/v1/packages/food.myplate%2Fnutrition - Install plan: https://forgeregistry.com/api/v1/packages/food.myplate%2Fnutrition/install-plan - Alternatives: https://forgeregistry.com/api/v1/alternatives/food.myplate%2Fnutrition - HTML page: https://forgeregistry.com/registry/food.myplate%2Fnutrition - MCP: POST https://forgeregistry.com/api/mcp → `forge_get_package` / `forge_install_plan` ## About this document Generated by Forge (https://forgeregistry.com) — a compact rendering of the same record served, signed, at the JSON URL above.
