Second tool alongside createRecipe, same safety shape: addToShoppingList's
execute only validates/echoes input, no DB write. The proposal card lets
the user pick an existing list (fetched lazily) or name a new one, then
confirms through the exact two-call flow AddToShoppingListButton already
uses — POST /api/v1/shopping-lists (if new) then POST .../items — no new
persistence code path.
generateMealPlan intentionally not built as a tool: the existing
/api/v1/ai/meal-plan/generate endpoint generates and writes in one step
with a week/preferences input, not a specific plan payload, so it has no
"save this exact draft" entry point to confirm against without a larger
refactor. Documented as a known gap rather than forcing a weaker pattern.
v0.46.0
Gives the general chat a createRecipe tool (Vercel AI SDK, stepCountIs(3))
scoped so it can only ever produce a draft — the tool's execute is a pure
echo, no DB write. The route surfaces the tool call as proposedRecipe
alongside the normal text answer; the chat UI renders it as a card with
explicit Create/Discard buttons. Create POSTs to the existing
/api/v1/recipes endpoint — the same code path and tier/recipe-count limit
the manual editor already goes through — so there's exactly one place
that actually creates a recipe row, and nothing happens without the user
clicking Create.
Scoped to the general assistant only (not per-recipe chat), and to one
tool for now — addToShoppingList/generateMealPlan are follow-ups.
v0.45.0
The general assistant had exactly one conversation per user forever
(recipeId null on chat_messages) — no way to start fresh or organize
by topic. Adds an ai_conversations table (title, timestamps) and a
nullable conversationId FK on chat_messages; the assistant panel gets
a conversations menu to create/switch/rename/delete, auto-titling a
new conversation from its first question.
Per-recipe chat is untouched — each recipe already has one natural
thread, so multi-conversation support only applies to the homepage
assistant. Pre-existing general messages (no conversationId) aren't
migrated into the new model and won't appear in the conversation list.
Requires migration 0042 to run against a live DB — not applied in
this sandbox (no Docker here); run `pnpm db:migrate`.
v0.43.0
Both chat panels were locked to a fixed 420px slide-over with no way
to get more room for longer conversations. Adds an expand/collapse
button in the header that grows the sheet to fill the viewport.
v0.38.0
Manual: DELETE /api/v1/ai/chat-history (scoped by recipeId or scope=general,
matching GET's scoping) plus a trash-icon button + confirm dialog in both
chat panels' headers.
Automatic: new internal cron endpoint (chat-cleanup), same shared-secret
pattern as the existing leftover-reminders/weekly-digest crons, deletes
any chat_messages older than 90 days. Wired into cron/crontab (daily,
03:00 UTC) and the Dockerfile's cron stage.
Verified locally: cleared a real conversation through the actual UI and
confirmed it didn't come back on reopen (not just cleared client-side);
inserted a 100-day-old and a 5-day-old message directly, called the cron
endpoint with the real shared-secret check, confirmed only the old one
was deleted and the recent one survived; confirmed the endpoint 401s with
no/wrong secret.
Both chat panels (per-recipe and the general cooking assistant) previously
kept messages in component state only — closing the sheet or reloading
the page lost everything. Both POST routes now persist question+answer
pairs to a new chat_messages table (recipeId null for the general
assistant), and both panels load their own history back on open.
New GET /api/v1/ai/chat-history (scoped by recipeId, or scope=general for
the homepage assistant, or neither to search across everything) backs a
new search control in both panels' header — debounced, shows matched
messages with date and (when searching across everything) which recipe
they belonged to.
Verified locally: asked a real question, closed and reopened the panel
and confirmed the conversation reloaded, then searched a keyword from
that conversation and confirmed both the question and answer surfaced
in the results dropdown.
Moved the homepage cooking-assistant button from bottom-24 to bottom-16 —
still clears the recipe list's floating bulk-action bar, just not as far.
Both chat system prompts (cooking-chat and the per-recipe chat) now
explicitly identify as "Epicure" and are told never to name the underlying
model/provider if asked — previously they'd just answer honestly with
whatever the model calls itself.
Verified locally: screenshotted the new button position, and asked "what
model or AI are you" through the real UI — response identified as Epicure
with no model name.
The existing recipe chat (RecipeChatPanel) is tightly scoped to one
recipe — recipeId is required and its system prompt embeds that recipe's
full ingredient/step context. Added a sibling, not a modification: a new
floating assistant on the recipes list page for questions that aren't
about any specific recipe (technique, substitutions, timing, food safety).
New /api/v1/ai/cooking-chat route (same quota/rate-limit/model-resolution
pattern as recipe-chat, minus the recipe lookup) and CookingAssistantPanel
component (same floating-button + Sheet UI). Positioned at bottom-24
rather than bottom-6 so it doesn't sit in the same band as the recipe
list's floating bulk-action bar during select mode.
Verified locally: asked a real cooking question through the actual UI,
got a correctly-formatted markdown answer with no recipe context leaking
in (confirmed the request payload only carries the question, no recipeId).
