Eating

A cupboard can contain ingredients without containing a feasible meal. Eating turns reviewed restrictions, available food, time, and equipment into choices the Magus can edit, approve, or reject. It also provides preparation guidance; a suggestion records neither cooking nor consumption.

Plan under hard constraints

The food mode of wellbeing.plan_cycle@1 pins profile, consent, policy, Pattern, reviewed food catalogue, tools, provider, and any InventorySnapshot@1. Deterministic checks traverse ingredients to a finite depth and classify each candidate as blocked, unresolved, or eligible. The interface never translates eligible into “safe.”

An unknown package quantity stays unknown. Decimal arithmetic preserves dimensions; volume becomes mass only through sourced ingredient-specific density. Serving, 100 g, and whole-package bases remain distinct. Neither a model nor a convenient recipe may invent identity or quantity to make the arithmetic close.

Exclusions, equipment, time windows, and operator maxima are hard gates. Variety, convenience, and cost influence the remaining choices. When no choice passes, the result is no feasible plan. Eating does not certify kitchen cross-contact or medical safety.

Minimal Homestead handoff

Stores supplies only the food identity, quantity interval, location class, freshness or expiry evidence, storage-condition uncertainty, and provenance in InventorySnapshot@1. Whole receipts, credentials, payment, addresses, and unrelated stock remain at home with their owner.

When an approved plan lacks ingredients, FoodNeed@1 may carry quantities, declared exclusions, useful product traits, expiry, privacy class, and unresolved flags to Provision. It contains no diagnosis, journal, measurement, medication, genetics, movement history, or merchant instruction. The returned ProvisionResult@1 describes availability; Eating decides whether the plan still fits.

Only an explicit wellbeing.check_in@1 can confirm eating or substitution and send a minimal consumption event for stock reconciliation. A purchase, recipe, prepared household lot, plan, or silence proves none of it. Eating never sources, mutates stores, builds carts, or pays.
