Wires cauldron up to the unified Sulkta bug tracker per memory/spec-bugs-unified-sdk.md (Phases 1-7 shipped 2026-05-02). What's included: - Vendored bugs-sulkta-py at cauldron/vendor/bugs_sulkta (4 stdlib-only files copied verbatim from Sulkta-Coop/bugs-sulkta-py main). Same vendoring approach as TC's backend/api/bugs_sulkta — Docker BuildKit can't reach LAN Gitea, so the package ships in the source tree. - BUGS_API_KEY + BUGS_BASE_URL env (config.py). Empty key = page renders "not configured" placeholder; POSTs return 503. Lets dev runs skip provisioning a key. - New routes (server.py): GET /bugs (page), GET /api/bugs (list), POST /api/bugs (create). All session-auth. Per-service key returns every cauldron report; we filter client-side by user_email so each household member sees only their own. Admins get a "show all" toggle. - bugs.html template in mythic-witch style: subject + message + kind + severity form, filed-reports list with status glyphs (📂 open 🔨 in-progress ✅ resolved ⛔ wontfix), relative timestamps. - _base.html nav: 🐞 bugs link between discover and me. - Server-side auto-fill: user_email/user_name from session, page_url from referrer, user_agent from request headers. Defaults are dev-safe — no env change required for the LAN soak. When Cobb mints the key with: docker exec bugs-sulkta bugs-sulkta-cli keys create \ --service=cauldron --scopes=read,write,update \ --description="cauldron prod" …drop it into BUGS_API_KEY and the page lights up. |

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>.

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.

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)
