Go client and examples for Recall Kitchen MCP.
Recall Kitchen searches U.S. CPSC, FDA food, FDA MedWatch, USDA, and NHTSA vehicle recalls.
Public streamable HTTP: https://app.recallkitchen.com/mcp. Client config: .mcp.json. Docs: recallkitchen.com/docs.
signup or Integrations. Send X-API-Key: rk_... (required for Grok) or Authorization: Bearer rk_... (Claude/Cursor). Env placeholder: RECALL_KITCHEN_API_KEY.Local: http://localhost:8080/mcp. Server card: https://app.recallkitchen.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json.
Tool reference: recallkitchen.com/docs/#mcp. Implementation notes: docs/mcp.md.
Two ways to call tools:
X-API-Key: rk_... (required for Grok) or Authorization: Bearer rk_... (Claude Code, Cursor).X402_EVM_PRIVATE_KEY. Watch, inventory, and notification tools still need an API key.Grok's HTTP MCP client treats Authorization: Bearer as OAuth. Use X-API-Key for Grok.
Public (API key or x402)
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
search_product_recalls | Keyword search. Optional source, since/until (YYYY-MM-DD), location, offset, limit (1–100, default 3). |
search_recalls_by_identifier | Exact UPC, lot, model, extracted product name, or VIN (local year/make decode for NHTSA). |
search_product_recalls_by_upc | Look up a UPC and match extracted recall UPCs. found=false if unknown. |
lookup_product | Catalog / USDA branded-food info. Does not search recalls. |
search_product_recalls_from_image | Public HTTPS URL, data:image/...;base64 URI, or MCP image content. No local file paths. |
get_product_recall | Full description and extracted lots, UPCs, models, locations, contacts, image URLs. |
Search results truncate descriptions and cap extracted products at 5. Call get_product_recall for the full notice.
location is ANDed with the query. CA matches California / "northern california". United States matches U.S. notices, not Canada/Ontario.
Account (API key required)
list_watch_patterns, add_watch_pattern, remove_watch_pattern, list_inventory, add_inventory_product, remove_inventory_product, check_tracked_products, list_recall_notifications.
Watch patterns use the same syntax as the search box: words are AND, OR is or, -term excludes, "quoted phrase" is a phrase.
Prompts: check_product, check_upc, scan_image, check_vin. Resources: recall://docs/tools, recall://docs/sources.
APIKey is also read from RK_API_KEY or RECALL_KITCHEN_API_KEY. The client sends X-API-Key. Anonymous clients can set EVMPrivateKey / X402_EVM_PRIVATE_KEY instead.
Module: github.com/Recall-Kitchen/rk-mcp/go.
See examples/go.
X-API-Key header (see above).claude mcp add --transport http recall-kitchen https://app.recallkitchen.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer ${RK_API_KEY}".mcp.json (X-API-Key + RECALL_KITCHEN_API_KEY). Authorization: Bearer also works.
