description: An official Recipe API MCP server, documented for Claude and any MCP client. The JSON-RPC
  endpoint answers 401 rather than 404, so it exists and is auth-gated — the tool list could not be enumerated
  anonymously.

- search_recipes

- Tool list not enumerable without a key, so the documented tools above are read from the docs page rather
  than from a live tools/list response.
