Connect an AI agent

Connect an AI agent so it can cook with you — your cookbook and the shopping list.

Approve SmartPlate in your agent.

Add SmartPlate to your agent

Your agent installs SmartPlate as a tool. You approve it once.

Paste the block for your client below, then approve SmartPlate with your SmartPlate login. The server address is https://api.smartplate.app/mcp.
