Forkmate — free AI calorie tracker MCP server (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor)

Forkmate (forkmate.ai) is a free AI calorie and macro tracker you talk to. Tell your AI assistant what you ate, and it logs the meal with its calories, protein, carbs and fat to your private food diary. See the day in the web diary at app.forkmate.ai.
