McMate

McMate is a meal planning skill that generates budget-compliant McDonald's combination menus.

McMate is a meal planning tool designed for McDonald's customers who struggle with ordering decisions. It works by querying official McDonald's MCP data to generate structured meal combinations consisting of mains, snacks, and drinks that fit within a specified budget. The process guides users through selecting a nearby store, specifying the number of people, providing a budget, and receiving calculated meal options. It handles pricing nuances such as member discounts and promotional items while filtering out non-food merchandise. The project runs as a WorkBuddy skill or an independent Python engine for command-line use.
