I have a chef node that I'm attempting to add a recipe to. Currently, this node has one recipe in the run list:
$ knife node show mynode
Node Name: mynode
Environment: _default
FQDN: mynode.domain
IP: 10.8.16.214
Run List: recipe[mycb::myrecipe1]
Roles:
Recipes: mycb::myrecipe1, ms_dotnet::ms_dotnet4, ms_dotnet::default, windows::default
Platform: windows 6.3.9600

I'm attempting to add a new recipe (mycb::recipe2) to the run list for this node:
$ knife node run_list add mynode 'recipe[mycb::myrecipe2]'
mynode:
run_list:
recipe[mycb::myrecipe1]
recipe[recipes]
This new recipe recipe[recipes]
is quite strange. I do not have a cookbook called recipes:
$ knife recipe-list
chef-sugar
chef_handler
chef_handler::json_file
mycb
mycb::myrecipe1
mycb::myrecipe2
ms_dotnet
ms_dotnet::ms_dotnet2
ms_dotnet::ms_dotnet3
ms_dotnet::ms_dotnet4
ms_dotnet::regiis
openssl
openssl::upgrade
sql_server
sql_server::client
sql_server::server
windows
windows::reboot_handler
I also don't have a cookbook called recipes:
$ knife cookbook list
chef-sugar 3.1.0
chef_handler 1.1.9
mycb 0.1.0
ms_dotnet 2.3.0
openssl 4.0.0
sql_server 2.2.3
windows 1.37.0
Where is this coming from, and how do I cause the correct recipe to be added?
I guess you are on PowerShell? See https://docs.chef.io/knife_node.html#id19 about escaping the knife node run_list add
