On 2026-10-19 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 1340 ms.

• Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.

Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

• update_formula

  Use this when the user wants to rename a formula or change its description, bench notes, kind (perfume or accord), folder, favourite star, pin, target concentration, IFRA category or bottle size.

• rename_folder

  Use this when the user wants to rename a formula folder: every formula filed in it moves (an empty name unfiles them).

• duplicate_formula

  Use this when the user wants a copy of a formula to try changes on: an independent copy of its working copy with the same bottles, named "<name> copy" unless named.

• save_version

  Use this when the user wants to keep the current state of a formula as a named version in its evolution tree and carry on editing on a fresh copy.

• branch_version

  Use this when the user wants to start a new line of work from a past version; the old working copy stays in the tree.

• open_version

  Use this when the user wants to go back and edit a past version directly, without cloning it. Refused for a version a batch was made from.

• rename_version

  Use this when the user wants to change a version's note or the number it carries.

• list_shelf

  Use this when the user asks which materials they own, what is in stock or running low, or as the first step to suggest what they can make with their shelf. Lists the materials on the user's shelf, each with its bottles: strength, solvent…

• get_shelf_material

  Use this when the user asks about one material they own: their notes, its bottles with recent stock movements, and the formulas that use it.

• add_to_shelf

  Use this when the user says they have bought or own materials and wants them on their shelf. Adds catalog materials by name or CAS, or their own new ones; each item can carry the bottle strength, solvent, stock in grams, price per gram…

• update_bottle

  Use this when the user wants to record stock for a bottle (a weighed count, or grams bought or used, through the stock ledger) or change its price per gram, supplier, lot, low-stock warning, strength, solvent or notes, take it on or off…

• make_dilution

  Use this when the user has made, or wants to record, a dilution from a bottle they own; the material used is taken from the source bottle's stock.

• update_material

  Use this when the user wants to change a material on their bench: their notes, odour description, families, note, impact, blotter hours, shelf life, synonyms, flash point or constituent breakdown; name and CAS only for their own materials.

• list_batches

  Use this when the user asks about batches they have made, all or one formula's, with their maceration journal and days resting.

• log_batch

  Use this when the user has made a batch of a formula and wants it recorded: total weight, date, label and notes, optionally at a weaker strength, and optionally deducting what it used from stock. Works from the working copy or a version.

• journal_note

  Use this when the user wants to add a dated line to a batch's maceration journal, or correct one.

• list_notes

  Use this when the user asks to read their PerfuMate notebooks: titles and previews, or one notebook in full by id.

• write_note

  Use this when the user wants to create a notebook or change one: its title, body, appended text or pin.

• list_shopping

  Use this when the user asks what they need to buy: the Shopping cart's lists and their items (with list and category), and the materials running low. Optionally one list only.

• shopping_list

  Use this when the user wants to add materials or free text to a Shopping cart list (the default list unless one is named; a new name makes that list), tick items as received or back to needed, or remove them.

• set_preferences

  Use this when the user wants to change the account's currency symbol or its default low-stock warning (grams; 0 turns it off).

• delete_items

  Use this when the user asks to delete a formula, version, material, bottle, batch or note. It is step 1 of 2 and deletes NOTHING: it shows exactly what would be removed, with any protection, and returns a confirmation token valid for 10…

• confirm_delete

  Use this only after the user has said yes to the list delete_items showed. Deletes exactly that list, with its token. If the list included a protected item, confirmName must be the formula's name as the user typed it. Items stay…

• restore_deleted

  Use this when the user wants something back from Recently deleted (deleted in the last 30 days).

• undo_last_change

  Use this when the user wants to take back the last change made from the chat, to one formula or the last of any, from any chat. Pass the exact changeId from a write result or this tool's preview. Without changeId this only previews the…

• get_scent_profile

  Use this when the user asks what a formula of theirs will smell like, how it evolves or how long it lasts, by PerfuMate's own scent model, exactly as the app's scent profile sheet shows it: families and sub-notes by weight and by…

• find_substitutes

• use_substitute

  Use this when the user picks one of find_substitutes' suggestions: replaces the line with it (pass its member names), in place, with the app's own amounts, the same smell carried through each bottle's dilution, merged into a line that…

• rebuild_from_shelf

  Use this when the user asks what they can make with the materials they own, or wants a formula rebuilt using only their shelf: the app's Replace with materials I own, showing how the formula can stand entirely on the shelf (what stays…

• insert_accord

  Use this when the user wants to use one of their saved formulas as a single ingredient inside another, as the app's accords do: a virtual material carrying the flattened composition (so IFRA, allergens, cost and the scent profile see what…

• view_accord

  Use this when the user asks what is inside an accord line of a formula: its materials at the dose it is used in, each with its share of the accord, read live from its source formula, and whether it can be decomposed.

• decompose_accord

  Use this when the user wants an accord line replaced by the materials it holds, at the same dose, in place (undo_last_change takes it back).
