Kayos 9e62a3e17f fix /plan 500 + bigger touch targets + sort/category chips + sticky search 
The /plan crash:
  AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'
  in sync_user_household — Mealie's user-self response sometimes returns
  household as a slug-string (newer versions) instead of a dict.
Fix: defensive — accept dict OR str, also fall back to top-level
householdId / householdSlug fields. Doesn't crash if all are missing.

Mobile + UX pass (Cobb 2026-04-29 — 'two kids screaming at the store'):
- Mushroom pick button bumped 30px → 48px (Apple HIG min tap target),
  inner SVG 16 → 24px, kept opacity transition. Stays one-handed-friendly.
- Recipe cards: padding 14px → 18px, min-height 88px, font-size 1.08em
  → 1.2em on the title. Bigger comfortable tap area.
- Recipe grid: 1col by default, 2col at 720px+, 3col at 1100px+ (was
  560/900). Phones get single column, the bigger card.
- Search bar: 14px → 16px font (kills iOS auto-zoom on focus), 8px → 10px
  padding. Now sticky at top of /recipes with backdrop-blur.
- Pill chip rows for sort + category — horizontally scrollable, hidden
  scrollbar, pill rounded shape, active state in purple-deep bg.
- Sort options: newest, recent (last_made), a-z, updated. Default = newest.
- Category chips: pulled live from Mealie's
  /api/organizers/categories, top 14 shown. 'all' chip clears filter.

Mealie client: list_recipes() now accepts orderBy + orderDirection +
categories[] + tags[] params. New list_categories() helper.

Server: _sort_to_order() maps our sort keys to Mealie's orderBy. Recipes
+ json endpoints both honor sort + cat query params and pass through to
the AJAX paginator.

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)
