Calculate salt, water, or salinity for brines and fermentation recipes. Use it to add this utility without rebuilding formulas, validation, examples, and documentation.
1 credit per successful call. Failed calls (validation errors, 5xx) don't bill.
Required fields: (none). Full schema at /v1/openapi.json.
Yes — same input, same output, forever. Tool version 2026-04-22; output shape is stable within a major version.
Yes. Connect to https://api.miniwebtool.com/v1/mcp over the Model Context Protocol. The agent discovers `brine-and-salinity-calculator` with its JSON Schema automatically, so the model can plan while MiniWebtool handles the exact tool result.
JSON with a stable envelope: `{request_id, tool, tool_version, credits_used, result}`. Errors are RFC 7807 `application/problem+json`.
