The PC gate forced a re-log when a meal was already logged on the phone but the 15-min sync had not yet propagated it. Two ways to close that gap: - The gate now pulls the shared log right before it would lock -- and only when a lock is otherwise due, so the network cost is paid on the rare tick that matters. A meal already pushed by the phone then unlocks without re-entry. Fails closed: any sync error (no token, network, disk write-back) falls through to the local lock decision, never skips it. - A "Fetch from sync" button on the lock screen runs the same pull on manual request: it auto-unlocks when the pull satisfies every pending slot, advances to the next meal on a partial pull, or reports no change. Disabled in --demo so the sandbox never triggers a real sync/push. - Both paths share one fail-closed wrapper, _sync.pull_shared_log(), which also keeps the single broad-except in one place. - _write_log is now atomic (temp file + Path.replace): the gate and the 15-min sync timer can now both write the log, so a torn read must be impossible.

diet_guard
A log-to-unlock gate: locks the desktop until a meal is logged once a meal slot (08:00 / 12:00 / 16:00 / 20:00) has elapsed without one, and tracks a sealed daily calorie/macro budget.
Install
bash install.sh
This installs the package + dependencies into system Python's user
site-packages (the systemd service runs /usr/bin/python directly, not a
venv — see CLAUDE.md), installs the systemd user timer, seals your daily
budget, and locks the budget file immutable.
Usage
python -m diet_guard init # one-time: compute and seal today's budget
python -m diet_guard gate --demo # test the lock window (safe, closeable)
The timer runs the gate automatically every ~30 minutes; no manual invocation is needed once installed.
MCP server
An optional Model Context Protocol server
lets an MCP client (Claude Code and its subagents) query today's intake and log
meals as typed tools instead of shelling out to the CLI. It runs in its own
venv (~/.venvs/diet-guard-mcp) so the mcp SDK never touches the
dependency-light system/CLI python path.
Tools:
get_status— today's consumed kcal + macros, the consumption band (on track/approaching limit/OVER BUDGET, or none when no budget is sealed), plus due / logged / current meal slots.list_today— today's logged meals (description, kcal, macros, source, slot).get_slots— the day's fixed meal slots and the current one.log_meal(description, grams=, kcal=, protein=, carbs=, fat=, slot=, confirm=False)— gated write: withconfirm=Falseit previews the resolved nutrition and target slot and mutates nothing; onlyconfirm=Trueappends the entry. The gate is intrinsic — never add this tool to a permission allowlist, since a client's auto-approve mode would otherwise bypass the human confirmation.
The read tools deliberately never expose the raw daily budget number (only the
qualitative band), nor the sealed .budget file, the shared HMAC key, or the
sync token — the budget stays hidden by design.
Setup:
bash scripts/setup_mcp.sh # create the venv and install diet_guard[mcp]
Then restart Claude Code in this repo and approve the project MCP server
(registered in .mcp.json).
Development
python -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
.venv/bin/pre-commit install && .venv/bin/pre-commit install --hook-type pre-push
.venv/bin/python -m pytest diet_guard/tests/ --cov=diet_guard --cov-branch --cov-fail-under=100
