Skills / Weekly Meal Planner

Your week, planned — and one shopping trip.

Claude interviews you once on goals, diet, time, and servings, then builds a balanced 7-day plan with per-serving nutrition and a single consolidated shopping list grouped by aisle — duplicates merged, batch-cook opportunities flagged.
