Recall Kitchen MCP
An MCP server that enables AI agents to search public product recall notices from government agencies like CPSC, FDA, and USDA. It supports keyword, identifier, UPC, and image-based searches, allowing users to find specific recalls, track products, and receive notifications about safety alerts.
Endpoint and access
No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.
An API key from the MCP signup tool, or the app's Integrations pageOr try a few anonymous MCP searches (no key) from an explorer or demo, then sign up or pay with x402Or an x402-capable client for pay-per-request calls after the free IP quota

Search product recalls by query. Query uses websearch syntax: unquoted words are AND, OR is or, -term excludes, quoted phrases match as a unit (example: Generac Generator -Portable). Optional filters: source (cpsc, fdafoodsafety, FDAMedWatch, usda, nhtsa, canada, openfda), since/until (YYYY-MM-DD), location (country, region, or place, ANDed with the query), offset, limit. Descriptions are truncated and extracted products are capped; use get_product_recall for the full text.

Search recalls by extracted UPC, lot code, model number, product name, or VIN. Multiple identifiers are AND-matched on the same product. VIN lookup lists NHTSA campaigns for the decoded year and make; confirm your vehicle on nhtsa.gov/recalls. lot_code matches extracted lot codes after normalizing spaces, case, and punctuation; if lots were not extracted, also searches notice title and description — verify against the notice. product_name falls back to the same full-text search as search_product_recalls when no exact extracted name matches, and returns a hint if still empty.

Create a Recall Kitchen account and API key from an email. No API key or x402 payment required. Set accept_terms true only after you ask the person and they confirm they are 13 or older and accept the Terms (https://recallkitchen.com/terms), Privacy Policy (https://recallkitchen.com/privacy) and API Terms (https://recallkitchen.com/api-terms); never set it automatically or on the person's behalf. The key is returned once. Unverified accounts have lower rate limits (60 tool calls/hour, 400/day, one key) and can add a few watch patterns. Sign in at https://app.recallkitchen.com with the same email to verify, raise limits, and add inventory. Does not re-issue a key if the email already has an account.
