# Use Forkmate in Claude

Forkmate is a custom connector for Claude. Add it once on claude.ai and Claude can log what you eat, total your calories and macros, and recall any day, on the web, in Claude Desktop and on your phone.

[Add to Claude](https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Forkmate&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.forkmate.ai%2F)

Opens claude.ai with Forkmate’s name and URL filled in. Review it, click Add, then sign in once.

No Forkmate account yet? [Create one free](https://app.forkmate.ai/) first. It takes under a minute, and Claude sends you there on first connect anyway.

## Or set it up by hand

`https://mcp.forkmate.ai/`

Forkmate’s server URL. Streamable HTTP, OAuth sign-in, no API key.

1. Open Connectors

On claude.ai, go to Customize → Connectors.
2. Add a custom connector

Click Add custom connector and enter the server URL `https://mcp.forkmate.ai/`. Leave the OAuth fields empty: Claude identifies itself automatically.
3. Add and connect

Click Add, then Connect on the Forkmate connector.
4. Sign in to Forkmate once

Claude opens a Forkmate sign-in in your browser. Sign in (or create your free account) and approve access. That one-time OAuth step connects it to your diary and nobody else’s.
5. Log your first meal

In a new chat (turn Forkmate on under + → Connectors if it’s off), say “I had two eggs and toast for breakfast.” It logs the meal with calories and macros to your Forkmate diary.

## What you need

- A free Forkmate account ([sign up](https://app.forkmate.ai/)). There is no paid plan.
- Claude Free, Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise. Free accounts can add one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise an Owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors, then you click Connect.
- Not in the Claude connectors directory yet, so it’s added as a custom connector. Once added, it’s on claude.ai, Claude Desktop and the Claude mobile apps.

Checked September 30, 2026 against these sources: [Claude docs: add a connector by URL](https://claude.com/docs/connectors/custom/add-unlisted), [Claude docs: install links](https://claude.com/docs/connectors/building/directory-vs-custom). Claude changes its menus often; if yours looks different, trust what it shows.

## What to say first

Once it’s connected, talk to Claude the way you’d tell a friend:

> I had two eggs and toast for breakfast.

It logs the meal with calories, protein, carbs and fat to your diary at app.forkmate.ai. Then try:

- How many calories have I had today?
- Make the toast two slices.
- What did I eat this week?
