Meal Planning Bundle

Here's a description for the bundle: **Meal Planner + Cart for Claude Cowork** -- A two-skill system that handles weekly meal planning and grocery shopping end-to-end, entirely through conversation. The **Meal Planner** asks a short set of questions (household size, dietary restrictions, cuisine theme, budget, desserts) and generates a professionally formatted Word document with a week-at-a-glance overview, full recipes with step-by-step directions, calorie and prep time estimates, and a consolidated shopping list organized by grocery store section. It designs meals with intention: alternating proteins across the week, building leftover chains that transform Monday's roast chicken into Wednesday's tacos, respecting dietary restrictions as hard constraints, and matching every recipe to your chosen cuisine theme. A seven-point validation (the Ingredient Integrity Check and Chef Audit) cross-checks every ingredient across three layers -- recipe, shopping list, and store search terms -- before anything leaves the skill. The **Meal Planner Cart** takes the validated grocery manifest and fills your online cart using live browser automation. It works with any grocery store that has a website -- Kroger, Wegmans, Tesco, Woolworths, Pick n Pay, and more across eight supported countries. There are no hardcoded instructions for any store. The skill opens the site, figures out how it works (search patterns, button labels, cart behavior, popups), and starts shopping. It matches package sizes to recipe quantities, handles out-of-stock items through a four-tier substitution fallback with prohibited-swap guardrails, and generates a Gap Report documenting every purchase, substitution, and missing item with meal-by-meal impact assessment. Both skills share a persistent memory layer. Your preferences are saved after the first session so returning weeks start with a single confirmation click. The cart skill builds a store "playbook" after each run -- proven search terms, site quirks, approved substitutions -- so shopping gets dramatically faster by the fourth or fifth session. A meal history file tracks every recipe ever planned and avoids repeats within a four-week cooldown using concept-level matching, not just title comparison. A pantry tracker estimates what long-life ingredients you still have at home based on usage rates and recommends what to skip versus rebuy. Crash recovery writes progress after every item so an interrupted session picks up where it left off. And weekly outputs are automatically organized into dated folders so your workspace stays clean over months of use. Supports the US, Canada, UK, Germany, India, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand with localized cuisine themes, grocery stores, and measurement units. Vegetarian, vegan, low-carb, heart-healthy, kid-friendly, and custom dietary restrictions are all supported. Optional desserts match your cuisine theme and dietary needs. Budget mode steers recipes toward cheaper proteins and pantry-heavy cooking while the cart skill favors store brands and sale items.
