What's for dinner is a data question

The nightly dinner question is really three questions wearing a coat: what do we know how to make, what do we have on hand, and who's going to be home. Sherpsy's new Meals module answers the first two with data you already gave it, and leaves the third to the calendar sitting next to it.

Recipes come in, structure comes out

Paste a recipe link and Sherpsy pulls it into a structured card — ingredients, quantities, steps. Scale it from four servings to six and the quantities follow. And because your dietary preferences live in settings, a recipe that collides with an allergy in the household gets flagged where you'll see it, not discovered at the table.

The pantry answers back

Provisions already knows what's on the shelf and roughly how much of it is left. Meals crosses the two: it will tell you which recipes you can cook tonight from what's actually in the house. When you mark a meal cooked, Sherpsy asks before it touches your pantry — it proposes the deductions, you confirm them. Nothing about your inventory changes silently.

And when a recipe needs what you don't have, the missing ingredients go onto the grocery list in one step — grouped by aisle, like everything else on a Sherpsy grocery list, so the store trip stays one lap.

Plan the week once; let the shelf and the list argue out the details.

Give the household one place to look.
