Clean recipe data
Run dedupe, junk filtering, name normalization, ingredient parsing, yield cleanup, taxonomy audits, and quality checks as staged workflows.
CookDex
A control room for large Mealie libraries.
CookDex runs beside your self-hosted Mealie instance and gives you a web UI for taxonomy cleanup, scheduled tasks, recipe discovery, ingredient parsing, backups, and runtime configuration.
What CookDex helps with
Manage taxonomy
Edit and sync Mealie categories, tags, cookbooks, labels, tools, foods, and units from a dedicated maintenance interface.
Automate safely
Queue one-off runs, keep dry-run defaults, review logs, and schedule recurring interval or cron jobs from the web UI.
Discover recipes
Crawl configured recipe sites, verify recipe schema, filter by language, and import new recipes into Mealie.
Built for self-hosters
CookDex does not phone home or include telemetry. It stores settings and encrypted secrets on your server and talks only to your Mealie instance, configured recipe sources, and optional AI providers you choose.
