A recipe manager PWA - https://halite.cc - I wanted to pull in recipes from social sites, videos where they only speak or show the ingredients/instructions, and be able to paste in text or json from recipes I'm making myself. Uses yt-dlp with a Gemini fallback, sites go direct fetch --> scrape proxy, and a monitor watches for breakages.

I also found it annoying to edit recipes so built in edit by asking ("double the garlic" rewrites the ingredient list). Also set up an mcp connection with Claude and it's been fun collaborating with Claude on what's for dinner and having it find, edit or make new recipes
