Kayos 946abd0322 audit-fixes: dedupe megacluster, consolidate cancel-poll, login-CSRF, misc
Continuing through the 2nd-pass audit findings.

dedupe_recipes.py CODE-2 (HIGH): _cluster_by_name dropped union-find
single-link agglomerative for the same pair-accumulator pattern
consolidate_foods._cluster already uses. Single-link chained weak
similarities through the recipe corpus the same way it did with foods,
producing one giant cluster on a 250+ corpus that Sonnet would refuse.
Now emits one 2-recipe pair per (i,j) above NAME_THRESHOLD.

consolidate_foods.py + dedupe_recipes.py CODE-1 (HIGH): added
in-loop cancel-poll to both _cluster passes. Polls cancel_check every
5K pair-comparisons so a user-initiated cancel can abort cleanly mid-
scan instead of waiting tens of seconds. Run-walk callers also
re-check _cancelled() right after clustering returns and bail.

server.py CVE-NEW-5 (MED): /login skips OIDC re-init when
session.get('user') exists. Closes the login-CSRF surface where a
malicious cross-origin link `<a href=…/login?next=/poison>` would
re-trigger the OIDC handshake on a logged-in user and silently change
their post-login landing.

server.py CVE-NEW-7 (LOW): Permissions-Policy now sends both
`interest-cohort=()` (FLoC, Chrome ≤94) and `browsing-topics=()`
(Topics API, Chrome ≥115) for opt-out across the lineage.

server.py CVE-NEW-8 (LOW): /auth/callback OAuthError branch no longer
echoes Authentik's raw error string to auth_retry.html. Detail is
logged server-side; users see a generic retry message. Closes the
information-disclosure on Authentik error codes.

server.py CODE-9/CODE-10 (LOW): wrapped int() of ?page= and
?per_page= in try/except so garbage args land on safe defaults
instead of surfacing ValueError as a 500.

Deferred to the rackham-vhost commit:
- CVE-NEW-6 (cauldron bind / ProxyFix trusted-peer filter) needs
  paired Apache vhost config (RequestHeader unset X-Forwarded-*)
  before the docker-side change is safe; landing it solo would
  either break the LAN deploy or leave a half-broken trust chain.

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)
