Kayos 3ec120c1d9 discover v0.1: scrape + search + import 
- requirements: add recipe-scrapers 15.6.0
- mealie.import_from_url(): POST /api/recipes/create/url returns slug
- db helpers: insert_discovered_recipe, update_discovered_meta,
  set_discovered_status, list_discovered_recipes (FULLTEXT + JSON
  filters), count_discovered_by_status, get_discovered_recipe;
  discover-job CRUD + anti-zombie finalize + stuck-job recovery
- discover_recipes.py: daemon-thread runner (mirrors enrich pattern)
  walks a URL list; scrape_me → reshape to mealie shape → INSERT IGNORE
  → forge.enrich_recipe → flip raw → enriched. SEED_URLS curated
  starter packs for allrecipes / bbc / smitten / pinch / hbh.
- endpoints: GET /discover, GET /api/discover/search (q + cuisine +
  complexity + protein + meal_type + kid-fit + max_minutes + status),
  POST /api/discover/import/<id>, /reject/<id>, /scrape-start (seed
  or urls list), /scrape-status, /scrape-cancel/<id>
- discover.html: filter row + card grid + collapsible scrape panel
  with seed chips and url textarea + live progress poll
- nav: 'discover' tab on /, link card on /me
- boot recovery: fail_stuck_discover_jobs at startup

README.md

cauldron

Mealie-backed AI meal planner + shopping list for the family. LAN-only, internal tool. Mealie at recipes.sulkta.com is the source of truth for recipes / meal plans / shopping lists; cauldron is the AI layer + Abby's branded UI on top.

Status

v0.1 — backend bones (current). Ingredient sterilizer endpoint working. No UI yet; bearer-auth API only. Frontend + Authentik OIDC arrives in v0.2. Native Kotlin Android in v0.5.

Surface (v0.1)

GET  /healthz                              liveness + clawdforge upstream
GET  /api/recipes                          list Mealie recipes (paginated)
POST /api/sterilize/preview/<slug>         dry-run AI parse, return proposals
POST /api/sterilize/apply/<slug>           write parses back to Mealie

All routes except /healthz require Authorization: Bearer <ADMIN_BEARER>.

Architecture

Abby's phone (later: Kotlin app)
        │
        ▼
  cauldron (Flask, port 7790, LAN-only)
   ├─ Mealie API client  ─── recipes.sulkta.com  (source of truth)
   ├─ clawdforge client  ─── 192.168.0.5:8800   (claude -p runner)
   └─ Authentik OIDC (v0.2)

cauldron does NOT hold its own database in v0.1 — all state lives in Mealie. A small Postgres/MariaDB schema lands in v0.2 for Abby-specific prefs + chat history.

Ingredient sterilizer

Mealie's CRF parser is mediocre. Cobb's hand-typed recipes have lots of free-form quantity strings ("about 2 cups cooked white rice", "1 small handful kale", "a pinch of salt") that don't aggregate cleanly into a shopping list.

The sterilizer batches all ingredients of one recipe into a single Sonnet call (via clawdforge), gets back parallel structured parses, then on apply links each parse to existing Mealie food/unit records (creating any missing by name) and PUTs the recipe back.

Preview is non-destructive — review proposals before apply.

# Dry-run preview
curl -sS -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $ADMIN_BEARER" \
  http://192.168.0.5:7790/api/sterilize/preview/spaghetti-bolognese | jq .

# Apply (creates missing foods/units by default)
curl -sS -X POST -H "Authorization: Bearer $ADMIN_BEARER" \
  http://192.168.0.5:7790/api/sterilize/apply/spaghetti-bolognese | jq .

Deploy

  1. ssh lucy
  2. cd /mnt/user/appdata && git clone <gitea-url> cauldron && cd cauldron/build (or wherever the deploy convention lands)
  3. Drop .env at /mnt/cache/appdata/secrets/cauldron.env (chmod 600 root:root)
    • CLAWDFORGE_TOKEN is already populated by the bootstrap (see memory/2026-04-28.md)
    • MEALIE_API_TOKEN — mint at recipes.sulkta.com → user → API tokens
    • ADMIN_BEARER — pick 32 bytes of entropy
    • SECRET_KEY — 32 bytes for Flask sessions
  4. docker compose up -d --build
  5. Smoke: curl http://192.168.0.5:7790/healthz

Roadmap

  • v0.1 ✓ — sterilizer backend + Flask shell
  • v0.2 — Authentik OIDC, Abby-branded web UI, palette CSS, postgres for prefs
  • v0.3 — meal plan generator (week → Mealie meal plan write)
  • v0.4 — shopping list aggregator (read meal plan → consolidated grocery list)
  • v0.5 — native Kotlin + Compose Android app (read-only shopping list + plan view)
