Nom MCP server
Nom runs a remote Model Context Protocol server, so AI assistants can look up fast food nutrition and Nom Scores as native tools — "what's the healthiest thing at Chipotle?" or "compare a Big Mac and a Whopper" — answered straight from Nom's data.
Server URL https://mcp.nom.now/mcp
Remote MCP over Streamable HTTP (SSE at /sse). No auth, no key. It serves the same data as the
JSON API, always in sync.
Connect it
Claude (Desktop or claude.ai)
Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, and paste the server URL https://mcp.nom.now/mcp.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http nom https://mcp.nom.now/mcp
Cursor, Windsurf, and other clients
Add Nom to your client's MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nom": { "url": "https://mcp.nom.now/mcp" }

For a client that only speaks stdio, bridge to the remote server with
mcp-remote:
npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.nom.now/mcp.
