Summary
Provides three conversion tools for cooking measurements: volume (ml, l, cup, tbsp, tsp), weight (g, kg, oz, lb), and temperature (Celsius, Fahrenheit). Built in Python and runs via stdio transport. You'd use this when working with recipes that need unit conversions, like converting 240ml to cups or 180°C to Fahrenheit. Installs through Smithery or manually via uv, and the README shows configuration for VSCode extensions like Roo. Straightforward utility server that handles the math for common kitchen conversions without needing to context switch to a calculator or conversion website.
