# Mealie Skill API client for [Mealie](https://mealie.io), a self-hosted recipe manager and meal planner. Manage recipes, shopping lists, and meal plans. ## Environment Variables Set these in your agent's `.env` (`~/.openclaw/.env`) or create a skill-level `.env` at `~/.openclaw/skills/mealie/.env`: - `MEALIE_URL` — Your Mealie instance URL (e.g., `https://recipes.example.com`) - `MEALIE_API_TOKEN` — Your API token (create at `/user/profile/api-tokens` in Mealie) The script only reads `MEALIE_URL` and `MEALIE_API_TOKEN` from `.env` files — other variables are ignored. ## Getting an API Token 1. Log into your Mealie instance 2. Go to User Profile → API Tokens 3. Create a new token with a descriptive name 4.
