15 tools offered to AI assistants
parsley_list_menu_items· List the recipes, sub-recipes and ingredients in the Parsley account that can be used on events: id, name, item number, price, tags, active flag, chef and last-modified time. Use the ids with parsley_get_menu_item for nutrition, allergens aparsley_get_menu_item· One menu item in full: names, description, price, cost, shelf life, serving size, nutrition facts (nutrients), the allergen flags and allergen text, dietary characteristics (meat, pork, corn, poultry) and the ingredient list. The photo linkparsley_list_menus· List the menus (menu plans) in the account: id, name and last-modified time. Use the id with parsley_get_menu or when creating an event. GET /menus.parsley_get_menu· One menu with its sections and the menu items in each section, and its serving stations. GET /menus/{id}.parsley_list_ingredients· List the ingredients that can be used in recipes: id, parent id, name, label name, item number, supported units, and whether a recipe uses it. The API returns the whole list at once; search/limit/offset slice it here. GET /ingredients.parsley_get_ingredient· One ingredient in full: unit conversions, supported units, tags, the supply options (supplier, SKU, pack size, cost) used for costing and the preparations with yield. Parsley limits this call to 1 request every 3 seconds, so fetch ingredienparsley_list_events· List events (a workday, shift, service or catering event) that fall in a date window: id, name, type (standard, cafe-hot-bar, sale, forecast), date, start and end time, menu id. A bare date means the whole day in the account timezone. GET /parsley_get_event· One event with its metadata and all line items (menu item, amount, unit, station, section). GET /events/{id}.parsley_list_serving_stations· List the serving stations (id, name) that menu items and event line items can be assigned to.

GET /tags/chefs.parsley_list_chef_users· List the chef users of the account: id, email, join date, active flag, permission level and the chef tag they are tied to. Only meaningful for accounts with Chef IDs enabled. GET /users/chefs.parsley_create_event· WRITE: create an event (a workday, shift, service or catering event) in Parsley with its menu items. This changes the account's production plan and is NOT idempotent: calling it twice creates two events. Returns the new event id. Use parsle

parsley_update_event_covers· WRITE: set the forecast and/or actual number of covers (guests served) on an event. Only the fields you pass change. actual_covers works only on cafe/hot bar events. Setting the same values again has no further effect. PATCH /events/{id}.parsley_record_event_sales· WRITE: push sold quantities per menu item to a cafe/hot bar event, which feeds Parsley's cost and usage reports. Other event types are refused by Parsley, as is a menu item with no made quantity on the event. Sending the same quantities agaparsley_record_waste_leftover· WRITE: push waste and/or leftover quantities per menu item to a cafe/hot bar event. If no sold quantity exists, Parsley derives it as made minus waste minus leftover. Parsley refuses amounts above what was made minus sold. Sending the same
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
