Grocery Shopping List Generator

Overview

Generate smart grocery lists from recipes by consolidating ingredients, checking what's already available, converting to purchasable quantities, and optionally automating the shopping process. Core principle: Buy only what you need in quantities you can actually purchase.

Announce at start: "I'm using the grocery-shopping skill to create your shopping list from recipes."
