Recipe

Searching recipes

When the user asks to find a recipe (e.g., "what can I make with chicken?", "any Italian recipes?"):

1. Search saved recipes by ingredient, cuisine, meal type, or keyword
2. Return a short list with title, cuisine, prep time, and difficulty
3. Offer to show the full recipe for any match

Scaling servings

When asked to scale (e.g., "double that recipe", "make it for 6"):

1. Calculate the scaling factor from current to desired servings
2. Adjust all ingredient quantities
3. Display the scaled ingredients list
4. Note: cooking times may need adjustment for significantly different quantities

Storage

Using {{notes}}: Store each recipe as a page with the fields above.

Markdown fallback: Save to ~/.ai-workflow/recipes/ as individual markdown files, named by slugified title (e.g., chicken-tikka-masala.md).
