Marmiton MCP server

Marmiton is the largest French cooking site, where home cooks have been publishing their recipes since 1999. Each one gives its ingredients with their quantities, the steps to follow, the preparation and cooking times, the number of servings it is written for, and the ratings the people who made it left behind.

This server connects a chat client to that site. You can search its recipes by dish or by ingredient, read one in full with its ingredients and its steps, and rescale the quantities to the number of people at your table, with each line saying whether the figure is exact or was moved to stay usable in a kitchen. It needs no API key and no account.

Install

One-click install

Claude Code

claude mcp add marmiton -- npx -y mcp-marmiton

Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any client using the standard config format

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "marmiton": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-marmiton"]
    }
  }
}

Node 24 or later is required, and no environment variable has to be set.

With Docker

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "marmiton": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "ghcr.io/smeet666/mcp-marmiton:2.1.0"]
    }
  }
}

-i keeps stdin open, which is where the protocol travels, and -t is left out because a TTY rewrites the stream. The container needs outbound HTTPS to www.marmiton.org, and nothing else: no volume, no port, no credential.

Bundle, without npm

Download mcp-marmiton-2.1.0.mcpb from the latest release and open it. A client that supports MCP bundles installs it on its own, with no npm and no configuration file to edit. The bundle carries its dependencies, so nothing is fetched at install time.
