Dinner, planned by a robot
How a weekly meal plan goes from a chat with your assistant to a shopping list on both your phones.
Here is a loop we run every week.
- One of us talks to an assistant. "Plan five dinners. Two vegetarian. Use the chicken in the freezer."
- The assistant reads our recipes in Uskeep and writes the week.
- It publishes the plan. The shopping list fills itself in.
- At the store, we both open the list. One ticks, the other sees it.
Why the assistant can do this
Uskeep speaks MCP, the Model Context Protocol. It is a standard way for an assistant to use a tool. You connect once. After that, the assistant can read recipes, write the plan and update the list, within the permissions you gave it.
Changes made by an assistant are marked. You always know who did what. Or what did what.
Hand-typed items survive
Publishing a plan does not delete the things you added by hand. Toilet paper survives the robot. Items you already ticked stay ticked.
Try it
Paste this into your assistant: https://uskeep.app/llms.txt. When Uskeep asks, press Allow connection. That is the whole setup.
