🟢get_recipe(recipe_id, version_id)

Read a recipe from the connected household, including ingredients, directions, and source. Supply version_id for a specific saved version or omit it for the current recipe. Display display_text as the current ingredient wording; raw_text is original source wording. Keep version_id, version_revision, and ingredient_id values for update_recipe.

🟡create_recipe(operation_id, title, description, servings, prep_minutes, ...)

Save a complete new recipe only after the user asks to save it. Supply ingredients, servings, times, and ordered directions; keep unknown, qualitative, or ranged quantities null and preserve their wording in raw_text. Never invent source facts or macros. Returns the saved recipe immediately; external services prepare its image and optional estimated nutrition in the background. Use get_recipe to check readiness.

🔴update_recipe(operation_id, recipe_id, expected_version_id, expected_revision, version_label, ...)

Update an existing recipe as a named version only after the user reviews the changes and asks to save them. First use get_recipe; copy version_id and version_revision into the expected fields. Submit the complete revised recipe: omitted ingredients and directions are removed. Map existing ingredient_id values to source_ingredient_id; use null for new ingredients. Keep current display_text and preserve qualitative or ranged quantities as null. Retains the recipe ID, image, source, earlier versions, and versions used by planned meals. External services may prepare optional nutrition and search updates. On version_conflict, read and review again before a new operation; never silently rebase or create a duplicate.
