Two supported payloads
Recipe-specific pages and full-week shopping lists use separate documented endpoints.

Developer access pending
Developer-review product flow
From recipe to grocery cart, with no retyping.
WorkLife Meal Plan now has a working server-side adapter for recipe pages and combined shopping lists. Until developer credentials are issued, this reviewer flow returns the exact normalized request without calling an external service or creating an order.

Integration readiness
Built around the review path, not a hard-coded link.
Credentials remain server-only. Development and production hosts, link caching, pantry controls, timeouts, and shopper-safe failure states are all configuration-driven.
Quantity normalization
Ingredient display text stays readable while supported units and quantities are mapped for matching.
URL reuse
Generated shopping URLs are cached by a hash of the exact payload and refreshed only when content changes.
Safe activation
A server-side feature flag and API key are both required before any external request can run.
Failure isolation
Eight-second timeouts and neutral errors preserve the user’s plan if the provider is unavailable.
Shopper control
No grocery credentials or card data enter WorkLife; the shopper reviews every match after handoff.
Safety and transparency
Designed to keep the shopper in control.
- No grocery account credentials are collected or stored by WorkLife Meal Plan.
- The reader deliberately selects the recipe and initiates the handoff.
- Retailer, product matching, substitutions, totals, and checkout remain with the retail provider.
- Affiliate disclosures will appear wherever commissionable links are used.
