# publish_recipe

**Publish recipe**

Put a recipe you own on the public wall under your byline, or take it down with `published: false`. Ask before publishing on someone's behalf: a page with their name on it is theirs to put up. Publishing needs a claimed profile handle and a cover, mints the page's slug, is capped per account, and screens the recipe's text once; a refusal names which. The row keeps its private copy either way, and a taken-down page stops answering. Spends no credits.

## Scope

- `recipes.publish` — Puts one of the account's own recipes on the public catalog under its author's byline.

## Behaviour

- **Writes**: Creates or changes items in the caller's own account.
- **Can delete or overwrite**: Can delete, overwrite, cancel or withdraw something the caller already has, so a host should confirm it.
- **Reaches outside**: Puts the recipe on Kuro's public catalog under the caller's byline, where anyone can open it.

## Credits

What the tool's description says about credits, verbatim:

- Spends no credits.

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Details |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `recipe_id` | string | yes | uuid |
| `published` | boolean | no | — |

## Example call

A `tools/call` request with the required arguments only, each a placeholder read off the schema. Replace them before sending.

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "publish_recipe",
    "arguments": {
      "recipe_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000000"
    }
  }
}
```

## Input schema

As the server sends it in `tools/list`:

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "recipe_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "format": "uuid"
    },
    "published": {
      "type": "boolean"
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "recipe_id"
  ],
  "additionalProperties": false
}
```
