Python MCP server and CLI for [Grocy](https://grocy.info/).

`grocy-mcp` lets AI agents and terminal users work with Grocy through one shared codebase. It exposes stock, shopping lists, recipes, chores, batteries, equipment, calendar exports, file groups, print helpers, workflow preview/apply helpers, discovery tools, and generic entity management through:

- an MCP server for tools like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and other MCP clients
- a `grocy` CLI for direct command-line use

## Choose your path

- Want to connect Grocy to Claude, ChatGPT, or another MCP client? Install `grocy-mcp`, run the MCP server, and point your client at it.
- Want to manage Grocy from the terminal? Install the package and use the `grocy` CLI directly.
- Want to build chat, OCR, or photo-driven flows? Normalize items outside this repo, then call the workflow preview/apply tools here.

If you only want the fastest possible first run, this is enough:

```bash
pip install grocy-mcp
export GROCY_URL="https://grocy.example.com"
export GROCY_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
grocy stock overview
```

## Why this project

Grocy already has a solid REST API, but most day-to-day interactions still require either:

- clicking through the Grocy UI
- writing one-off API scripts
- wiring ad hoc automations around numeric IDs

`grocy-mcp` packages those API capabilities into a cleaner operator experience:

- human-friendly names instead of IDs for common flows
- a reusable MCP surface for AI agents
- a mirrored CLI for shell workf…
