Capabilities

Tools 14

delete_meal

Delete one food from a diary entry (by `item_index`), or the whole entry (without it). The entry is identified by `id` and `local_date`. Deletion is permanent, with no undo; deleting the last food removes the entry, and an `id` that matches no entry on that date returns a not-found error and deletes nothing. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
get_day

Read the user's food diary for one day: its entries, each listed with its `id` and each food with its item_index, quantity and macros, and calorie/macro totals. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
get_notifications

Reads the user's Forkmate notifications, newest first: notices that something the user reported was fixed, Forkmate release notes (what's new), and account messages. Each one has a kind, a title, a body, an optional link, the day it arrived and whether it is unread, and the reply includes the unread count. Read-only: reading marks nothing as read. Notifications older than 180 days are not kept.

Discovered
get_preferences

Read the user's food profile: diet style, allergies (a structured list of the major US allergens), foods they like, foods they dislike, and a typical-portion note. Allergies are self-reported and not a safety guarantee; the response includes an allergy_disclaimer. Likes and dislikes are taste preferences, not allergies or restrictions.

Discovered
get_range

Read the user's food diary across a date range, with per-day calorie/macro totals and each entry listed with its `id`. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
get_usual_foods

Read what the user usually and recently eats. `usual` lists their most-logged foods, most frequent first, each with how many times it was logged, the date last eaten, the meal it is usually logged under, and the portion and macros from the last time. `recent` lists each distinct food from the last seven days with the date last eaten, its meal and how many times. An optional `meal` narrows both lists to one meal. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
give_consent

Records the user's consent to Forkmate storing and processing their health-related data, as summarised in the consent text that a refused log reply shows. Valid only as the user's own explicit agreement given in this conversation; an assistant agreeing on the user's behalf is not consent. Stores the consent version, the time, the connected app and the user's words, then logs any meal that was waiting for consent. Withdrawal is in Forkmate Settings.

Discovered
log_meal

Add a meal to the user's food diary: one or more food items, each with an optional quantity and macros, plus an optional meal label, date, note and provenance `source`. The reply names the new entry's `id` and `local_date`, which identify it for a later edit or deletion. A restaurant meal's numbers depend most on the restaurant, the specific menu item, its size and its add-ons (cheese, fries, sauce, dressing); a bare dish name is logged as a typical serving. When the user names one of their saved recipes ("my chicken and rice", "half my chili"), send their words as one item's name, with any amount in quantity; Forkmate logs the recipe's own foods and numbers in its place. Portion amounts are checked against the user's own words for the meal when they arrive in `said`, and the reply lists each food with the amount it was logged at. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
lookup_barcode

Look up a packaged food by its UPC/EAN barcode in Open Food Facts. Returns macros per 100 g, a `source` label ('Open Food Facts'), and, when known, `serving_grams`/`serving_label` for one household serving. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
search_foods

Search USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts and Forkmate's curated restaurant menus for a named food. Returns up to 5 candidates, each with macros per 100 g, a `source` label ('USDA', 'Open Food Facts', 'Forkmate' or 'product label', a packaged product's published label read from a cited page and not yet checked by Forkmate), and, when known, `serving_grams`/`serving_label` for one household serving. Curated chain-menu candidates include a `provenance` object that may carry a portion caveat. A query names a food (at least 2 letters, no wildcards); there is no paging. For a bare generic dish ("a burger", "coffee"), the reply also lists `details_that_change_it`: the details that change that dish's numbers most, such as where it is from, which item, its size and add-ons. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
send_feedback

Sends feedback to Forkmate to improve the app: a bug, a feature request, a food or nutrition figure that looked wrong (food_data), or something else. It is for feedback the user has asked to send, in the user's own words rather than a paraphrase. It changes nothing in the diary. The note is kept in the user's own account and deleted with it, and no reply is sent.

Discovered
update_meal

Correct a food already in the user's diary — its name, quantity, macros, caffeine or fluid — or change an entry's meal label or note. The entry is identified by `id` and `local_date`, and a food by its `item_index`. Only the fields sent change; macros are merged onto the existing values and overwritten in place, with no history kept. A new `quantity` sent without `macros` rescales the food's macros, caffeine and fluid by the new amount ÷ the old one when both are the same kind of amount (a weight, a volume or a count), so '150 g' to '300 g' doubles them; otherwise the macros stay as they were and the reply says so. An entry cannot be moved to another day. All calorie and macro values, including carbohydrates, are estimates from USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the user's own entry or an AI assistant's estimate — approximate, not lab-measured or specific to a package or batch, and not suitable for insulin dosing (including carb counting for a meal bolus), blood-glucose prediction or any other medical decision.

Discovered
update_preferences

Edit the user's food profile: add or remove foods they like or dislike, add or remove allergies from the major US allergen list, or set their diet style. Only the fields sent change. A removal matches a saved name in any casing; a name that matches nothing is reported in `not_found` and nothing else is affected. Adding a food to likes takes it off dislikes, and the reverse. Lists hold up to 50 foods of up to 80 characters each. The reply is the whole updated profile. It saves what the user states about their own tastes and allergies, not inferences from the diary. Every call carries `user_approved: true`, meaning the user saw this exact change and said yes to it; a call without it changes nothing and returns the change for the user to approve. A user stating a preference (e.g. 'I dislike olives') has not approved saving it: approval is a later message agreeing to the change as proposed. The server cannot verify that a person gave the approval. Removals work without health-data consent and then return only what was removed. The user can see and edit the same profile in Forkmate's Settings.
