# Fooda — Printing Press CLI

## Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the `fooda-pp-cli` binary. **You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill.** If it is missing, install it first:

1. Install via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to `$HOME/.local/bin` on macOS/Linux and `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\PrintingPress\bin` on Windows:
   ```bash
   npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install fooda --cli-only
   ```
2. Verify: `fooda-pp-cli --version`
3. Ensure the reported install directory is on `$PATH` for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill.

If the `npx` install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.6 or newer). This installs into `$GOPATH/bin` (default `$HOME/go/bin`), so add that directory to `$PATH` instead:

```bash
go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/food-and-dining/fooda/cmd/fooda-pp-cli@latest
```

If `--version` reports "command not found" after install, the runtime cannot see the binary directory on `$PATH`. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds.

Fooda has no public API. This CLI reads the logged-in web app with your Chrome session, syncs your order history locally, and answers questions like what you ate, where you keep ordering, and how much subsidy you have left today.

## Unique Capabilities

These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API.

### Local history that compounds
- **`served-history`** — See every lunch you were actually served, with date, vendor, items and price.

  _Use when an agent needs a longitudinal record of what a person ate rather than today's menu._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli served-history --since 90d --agent
  ```
- **`venue-rotation`** — Rank vendors by how often and how recently you ordered from them.

  _Use to spot vendor fatigue or under-used favorites before choosing lunch._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli venue-rotation --since 120d --agent
  ```
- **`spend-trends`** — Spend per month or week, split into subsidy-covered and out-of-pocket.

  _Use for budget or subsidy-utilization reporting._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli spend-trends --since 6mo --group-by month --agent
  ```

### Lunch planning
- **`week-ahead`** — One-line-per-day digest of upcoming events and restaurants at your building.

  _Use for a quick morning check of what is being served this week._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli week-ahead --agent
  ```
- **`subsidy-status`** — Remaining dollars of today's subsidy and when it is valid.

  _Use before ordering to know how much of the meal is covered._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli subsidy-status --agent
  ```
- **`menu-search`** — Search menu items across all of today's events.

  _Use for dietary or craving lookups without opening each vendor page._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli menu-search vegan --agent
  ```
- **`delivery-status`** — Whether your order for a day (default today) was delivered, with delivery time, vendor and items.

  _Use to confirm lunch arrived; delivered events drop off events and week-ahead, so a missing event does not mean there was no order._

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli delivery-status --agent
  ```

## Anti-Triggers & Limitations

- **Ordering Support**: Ordering is supported via `order add` and `order place` when using `--confirm`. Automated agents must never pass `--confirm` without explicit user intent.
- **Cancellation Limitation**: The `order cancel` command is not supported (please cancel manually in the Fooda app).
- **`whoami` Cloudflare Constraints**: The `whoami` command is heavily limited by Cloudflare challenges. It fallbacks to greeting pages; account and building IDs are extracted from the home page.
- **Catering / Billing**: Do not use this CLI for Fooda Catering orders or billing.
- **Delivered events disappear**: Once a day's delivery completes, Fooda drops that event from `events` and `week-ahead`, and the My Fooda page jumps to the next day with no status. A missing event for today does not mean there was no order. Run `delivery-status` instead, which reads order history (`Delivered on …` versus `Delivering on … between …`). Orders report the same `checkout_complete` status whether they were delivered or are still scheduled, so the delivery text is the only delivered-versus-scheduled signal.

## Cookbook / Recipes

- **Budget-Optimized Lunch Planning**: Plan an add-on item, add both to cart, and place order:
  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli order plan --event S609348 --budget 20 --anchor "Beef Bulgogi Bowl"
  fooda-pp-cli order add 589968 --event S609348 --confirm
  fooda-pp-cli order add 589973 --event S609348 --confirm
  fooda-pp-cli order place --event S609348 --confirm
  ```
- **Vendor Fatigue Check**: `fooda-pp-cli venue-rotation --since 120d --agent --select vendor,order_count,last_ordered`
- **Monthly Subsidy Report**: `fooda-pp-cli spend-trends --since 6mo --group-by month`
- **Vegan Options Today**: `fooda-pp-cli menu-search vegan`
- **Did Today's Lunch Arrive?**: `fooda-pp-cli delivery-status --agent` (add `--date YYYY-MM-DD` for another day)

## Recipes

### Budget-optimized lunch planning

```bash
fooda-pp-cli order plan --event S609348 --budget 20 --anchor "Beef Bulgogi Bowl"
```

Suggests a budget-optimized add-on item from the event menu.

### Vendor fatigue check

```bash
fooda-pp-cli venue-rotation --since 120d --agent --select vendor,order_count,last_ordered
```

Shows only the fields needed to see repeat vendors.

### Monthly subsidy report

```bash
fooda-pp-cli spend-trends --since 6mo --group-by month
```

Splits covered and out-of-pocket spend per month.

### Vegan options today

```bash
fooda-pp-cli menu-search vegan
```

Searches every event menu for the term.

### Did today's lunch arrive?

```bash
fooda-pp-cli delivery-status --agent
```

Reports each order on the date as `delivered`, `scheduled`, or `unknown`, with the delivery text, vendor and items. It reads order history because a delivered event no longer appears in `events` or `week-ahead`.

### Finding the right command

When you know what you want to do but not which command does it, ask the CLI directly:

```bash
fooda-pp-cli which "<capability in your own words>"
```

`which` resolves a natural-language capability query to the best matching command from this CLI's curated feature index. Exit code `0` means at least one match; exit code `2` means no confident match — fall back to `--help` or use a narrower query. `--json` (and other machine formats) keep that exit-2 contract and write `{"matches":[]}` on stdout so agents can inspect the envelope without treating a miss as success.

## Auth Setup

Fooda sits behind Cloudflare and has no API key. Log in to app.fooda.com in Chrome, then run `auth login --chrome` to import your session cookies, or use `auth login --cookies-file <file>` to import cookies from a JSON file. The CLI never logs in itself.

Run `fooda-pp-cli doctor` to verify setup.

## Agent Mode

Add `--agent` to any command. Expands to: `--json --compact --no-input --no-color`.

Global format flags share one contract on promoted, novel, sync, and `--deliver` paths:

- `--json` — one JSON document on stdout (sync progress events go to stderr)
- `--compact` — keep identity/status/timestamp fields; does not change the document vs stream shape
- `--csv` / `--plain` — tabular rows (collection envelopes unwrap to the row array)
- `--quiet` — one identity value per row, no envelope

- **Pipeable** — JSON on stdout, errors on stderr
- **Filterable** — `--select` keeps a subset of fields. Dotted paths descend into nested structures; arrays traverse element-wise. Critical for keeping context small on verbose APIs:

  ```bash
  fooda-pp-cli card --agent
  ```
- **Previewable** — `--dry-run` shows the request without sending
- **Offline-friendly** — sync/search commands can use the local SQLite store when available
- **Non-interactive** — never prompts, every input is a flag
- **Explicit confirmation** — `--agent` does not imply `--yes`; pass `--yes` separately only after the target, arguments, and side effects are clear

### Response envelope

Commands that read from the local store or the API wrap output in a provenance envelope:

```json
{
  "meta": {"source": "live" | "local", "synced_at": "...", "reason": "..."},
  "results": <data>
}
```

Parse `.results` for data and `.meta.source` to know whether it's live or local. A human-readable `N results (live)` summary is printed to stderr only when stdout is a terminal AND no machine-format flag (`--json`, `--csv`, `--compact`, `--quiet`, `--plain`, `--select`) is set — piped/agent consumers and explicit-format runs get pure JSON on stdout.

## Paths and state

Agents should treat the CLI's path resolver as part of the runtime contract:

- Use `--home <dir>` for one invocation, or set `FOODA_HOME=<dir>` to relocate all four path kinds under one root.
- Use per-kind env vars only when a specific kind must diverge: `FOODA_CONFIG_DIR`, `FOODA_DATA_DIR`, `FOODA_STATE_DIR`, `FOODA_CACHE_DIR`.
- Resolution order is per-kind env var, `--home`, `FOODA_HOME`, XDG (`XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, `XDG_DATA_HOME`, `XDG_STATE_HOME`, `XDG_CACHE_HOME`), then platform defaults.
- `config` contains settings like `config.toml` and profiles. `data` contains `credentials.toml`, `data.db`, cookies, and auth sidecars. `state` contains persisted queries, jobs, and `teach.log`. `cache` contains regenerable HTTP/cache files.
- Stored secrets live in `credentials.toml` under the data dir. Existing legacy `config.toml` secrets are read for compatibility and leave `config.toml` on the first auth write.
- Run `fooda-pp-cli doctor --fail-on warn` to surface path and credential-location warnings. `agent-context` exposes a schema v4 `paths` block for agents that need the resolved dirs.
- For MCP, pass relocation through the MCP host config. The MCP binary does not inherit CLI flags:

  ```json
  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "fooda": {
        "command": "fooda-pp-mcp",
        "env": {
          "FOODA_HOME": "/srv/fooda"
        }
      }
    }
  }
  ```

Fleet precedence: an inherited per-kind env var overrides an explicit `--home` for that kind. Use `FOODA_HOME` or per-kind vars as durable fleet levers, and use `--home` only for a single invocation. Relocation is not reversible by unsetting env vars; move files manually before clearing `FOODA_HOME`, or `doctor` will not find credentials left under the former root.

## Automatic learning

This CLI ships a self-capturing learning loop. The CLI does its own bookkeeping: every invocation is journaled locally, a failed flag followed by a corrected retry auto-derives a `flag_alias` candidate, and a `teach` on a query family without a playbook auto-synthesizes a `playbook_candidate` from the session's journal. Your job is judgment only: `recall` first, act on surfaced candidates, `teach` the final answer, `playbook amend` when you observe a correction. You never record failures by hand.

### Step 1: `recall` before any discovery

Before list/search/drill commands on a new user question, pass the question as an argv or MCP tool argument to `recall --agent`. Do not interpolate user-controlled text into a shell command line.

Quoted `recall "<question>"` breaks on an apostrophe, which is ordinary English. A quoted heredoc breaks when a body line equals the delimiter, and that delimiter is published in these docs. Write the question with a non-shell file-writing tool, then read it back as data:

```bash
# Write the question verbatim with your file-writing tool (no shell involved).
# Command substitution on a file only ever yields data — the shell never
# parses the file's bytes as syntax.
QUERY=$(cat /path/to/question.txt)
fooda-pp-cli recall "$QUERY" --agent
```

Prefer MCP: pass the question as the tool's query argument. `"$QUERY"` after a file read is argv-safe; putting the question itself in the command text is not.

The response envelope:

```json
{
  "query": "...",
  "normalized": "<normalized form>",
  "query_entities": ["..."],
  "found": true | false,
  "match_score": 0.0,
  "results": [
    { "resource_id": "...", "resource_type": "...", "venue": "...",
      "confidence": 2, "entity_match": "exact|partial|unknown",
      "source": "taught|preseed|pattern", "warnings": ["..."] }
  ],
  "mismatches": [ /* only when --debug-mismatches */ ],
  "warnings": [ /* top-level */ ],
  "candidates": [
    { "id": 12, "class": "flag_alias | playbook_candidate",
      "summary": "...", "sightings": 3, "last_seen": "...",
      "rationale": "...",
      "next_action": ["<trial command>", "fooda-pp-cli learnings confirm 12"] }
  ],
  "playbook": {
    "query_family": "...",
    "playbook": {
      "steps": [ { "cmd": "<command with {slot} substitution>", "purpose": "..." } ],
      "entity_slots": ["$ENTITY"],
      "expected_tool_calls": 3
    },
    "slots_resolved": { "$ENTITY": { "token": "<live token>", "canonical": "<canonical>" } },
    "notes": "<workarounds + gotchas for this query family>"
  },
  "notes": "<duplicate surface for non-playbook callers>"
}
```

Empty-store short-circuit: if the store has no learnings, playbooks, or candidates yet (recall finds nothing and `learnings list` and `learnings candidates` are both empty), skip recall for the rest of this session instead of taxing every query; resume recall-first once something has been taught.

### Step 2: decision tree

Read `candidates`, `playbook`, `notes`, `results[0]`, and warnings in that order:

```
if Candidates present (warnings include "candidates_present"):
    -> candidates are try-then-confirm, never facts. Follow each candidate's
       two-step next_action verbatim: run the trial command first, then run
       `learnings confirm <id>` only after the trial verified the behavior.
       Reject a wrong candidate with `learnings reject <id>`.
    -> NEVER re-teach something recall surfaced as a candidate; confirm or
       reject that candidate instead of teaching a duplicate.
    -> candidates ride alongside playbooks and resource hits, not instead of
       them; continue with the branches below after acting on them.

if Playbook present:
    -> READ Playbook.notes verbatim FIRST (workarounds + gotchas the CLI surface doesn't expose)
    -> replay Playbook.steps in order, substituting Playbook.slots_resolved entries
       for the entity slot tokens. If a step's slot is unresolved, fall back to
       discovery for that step only.
    -> the Playbook's expected_tool_calls is a budget; if you find yourself running
       materially more, record the divergence via `fooda-pp-cli playbook amend`
       at end-of-session.

elif Notes present (no Playbook):
    -> read Notes verbatim before any discovery step; they carry known gotchas
       for this query family even when no structured choreography exists yet.

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "exact" AND Results[0].Confidence >= 2:
    -> skip discovery; fetch live data for Results[*].ResourceID in parallel

elif Found AND Results[0].EntityMatch == "partial":
    -> candidate hint, NOT a hit; read the resource title to validate before trusting

elif (any row in Mismatches[] when --debug-mismatches was passed):
    -> treat as cold start; the stored learning is for a different entity
       (different canonical resolved from query_entities)

else:  // Found == false, no playbook, no notes
    -> cold start; run discovery normally; teach the answer afterward (Step 4).
       If the family has no playbook yet, that teach auto-synthesizes a
       playbook candidate from this session's journal - you do not need to
       record one by hand.
```

Playbook and Notes are orthogonal to the per-resource path. A recall response can carry both a Playbook AND a `Results[]` hit - use both: the Playbook tells you which choreography to run; the resource hits short-circuit specific steps. Default to skipping `mismatches`; pass `--debug-mismatches` only when investigating cold-start surprises.

Candidate judgment details: `learnings confirm <id>` prints the candidate's full payload before materializing it - check that the printed payload matches the behavior you verified. `learnings reject <id>` tombstones the derivation signature so the same candidate does not resurface. The envelope carries only the few candidates worth acting on now; `fooda-pp-cli learnings candidates` lists the full open set.

Graceful degradation: if `learnings confirm` is an unknown command, you are driving an older binary - ignore the candidates guidance and follow the rest of the protocol.

### Step 3: always read `warnings`

- `low_confidence`: row exists at `confidence<2`. Treat as a hint, not a skip-discovery hit.
- `resource_not_in_store`: the local store doesn't have the resource the learning points at. The match validator couldn't classify entities — direct-fetch and re-evaluate.
- `cross_alias_match` (per-result): the row was taught under a different alias and matched the live query's canonical via `entity_lookups` (e.g., a "USA" teach satisfying a "United States" recall). Trust the resource_id.
- `similar_shape_different_entity:<canonical>` (top-level): a structurally matching row exists but its canonical entity differs from the live query's. Treated as cold start; the warning carries the conflicting canonical as a hint, but the row is NOT promoted into Results.
- `ambiguous_alias` (top-level): a single query entity resolved to multiple canonicals (e.g., "Cards" → Arizona Cardinals + St. Louis Cardinals). Surface the ambiguity from context before committing to a resource.
- `candidates_present` (top-level): the envelope carries a `candidates` section. Handle it via the can
