Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 24be05b9c3 feat: mirror the catering parser and slot spread in Dart, gated by one fixture
The phone is getting its own Kuchnia Wikinga importer so the feature works
with the PC switched off. That turns a risk `_kuchnia_spread.py` called
"theoretical" into a live one: two implementations must now agree exactly on
which dishes are dropped, which slot each lands on, and the JSON a banked
record encodes to. Disagreement means each device re-adds what the other
dropped, and since `add_manual_entry` restamps `t` unconditionally, the whole
curated bank republishes to every peer on every refresh. A slot mismatch is
worse -- a checkpoint one device offers and the other does not can never be
satisfied.

So the port lands with its gate rather than after it. One shared fixture,
`tests/fixtures/kuchnia_day.json`, is asserted by both `pytest` and
`flutter test`: same input, same expected dishes, drops, slots, bank keys and
records. Two suites written independently from the same prose is not a gate.

The fixture is five real dishes (a scrubbed 2026-08-22 capture) plus synthetic
meals that each pin one drop or fallback path -- a per-100 g mix-up, an absurd
portion, a stringly-typed number, a non-dict entry, a missing `nutrition`, a
missing `mealPriority`, and a twin-dish pair. Without those, "the same meals
are dropped" is a vacuous assertion against an all-happy-path capture. Both
halves were mutation-checked: flipping an expected slot, drop count or record
value fails each suite, and flipping `435.0` to `435` fails the byte-identity
test while the value comparison still passes, which is why both exist.

Three traps the port had to survive, each caught before it shipped:

- `_ENERGY_TOLERANCE` is **0.35**. The prose said "~1%", which describes how
  closely the captured day agreed, not the threshold; porting 0.01 would drop
  dishes the PC keeps. That paragraph now says so.
- `jsonEncode(435)` emits `435` where Python emits `435.0`, so every Dart
  macro is forced to `double` and a canonical-encoding test pins it.
- Dart's `List.sort` is unstable where Python's `sorted` is stable, so the
  Dart comparator carries the payload index as a final tiebreak.

The real dishes live in their own file rather than as a literal in the
generator: transcribing them by hand corrupted three of the five, and the
error was invisible until the generated fixture was diffed against the
capture.

diet_guard_app

Companion app for diet_guard: log meals on the phone, and on the Linux desktop, sharing one food log through GitHub-backed sync.

Two targets, and only two

Target What it is
Android a normal Flutter app (flutter build apk)
Linux desktop the Flutter web build, served by a local wrapper and shown in a Chrome --app window

There is no linux/ directory. Flutter's GTK embedder manages ~20fps at 3840x2160 -- measured on a stock flutter create counter app, so it is the toolkit rather than this code -- where the same Dart rendered by Chrome sustains ~144fps (~/todo/docs/desktop-performance-findings.md). Running flutter create --platforms linux here would silently restore the slow path.

Commands

flutter test                     # the app's suite
flutter analyze
bash run.sh                      # build the web bundle and launch the desktop app
bash install_arch.sh             # build + install the pacman package and .desktop entry
flutter build apk --release      # the phone build
adb install -r build/app/outputs/flutter-apk/app-release.apk

Never adb uninstall or pm clear this package: both wipe the on-device log.

The desktop wrapper

bin/diet_guard_desktop.dart is the other half of the desktop app, because a browser cannot touch the filesystem. It:

  • serves the built web assets from build/web (or /opt/diet-guard-app/web once packaged);
  • keeps an on-disk copy of every document and photo under ~/.local/share/diet-guard-desktop/, which is what makes a wiped Chrome profile recoverable -- for photos it is the only copy, since they never sync;
  • holds the GitHub token (~/.config/diet_guard_app/sync_token, falling back to the PC gate's ~/.config/diet_guard/sync_token) and proxies api.github.com plus the device flow, whose endpoints send no CORS headers and so cannot be called from a page at all.

The port (8732) and the Chrome --user-data-dir must stay fixed. IndexedDB is keyed by origin and lives inside that profile, so changing either looks to the app like a device with no history.

Platform seams

dart:io does not fail a web compile; it becomes a stub that throws at runtime, so the symptom of a missed seam is a blank white window rather than a build error. Every platform edge is a conditional export -- document_store*, blob_store*, background_tasks*, notification_backend*, token_vault*, github_client_factory*, attached_image*. Branch on kIsWeb before any Platform.is…, which itself throws on web.

What the desktop genuinely loses, by design rather than omission:

  • Background reminders. A browser runs nothing once its window is closed, so the due-slot check runs in-page every 5 minutes while the window is open. On the PC the real backstop is diet-guard-gate.timer, which locks the screen.
  • Camera capture. The browser picker is a file input.
  • Photo sharing between devices -- unchanged: imagePath was always stripped before push.

Sync identity

Three devices push under diet-guard-sync/devices/: pc (the Python gate), phone, and desktop. Each must keep its own id -- two devices sharing one would overwrite each other's pushed log on every tick.
