name: paprika-recipe-importer description: > Convert recipe text (pasted text, video transcript, image description, or any raw content) into a .paprikarecipes file that can be imported directly into the Paprika Recipe Manager app. Use when the user shares a recipe in any format (text, transcript, image) and wants a Paprika import file. Triggers on phrases like "create a Paprika file", "import into Paprika", "save this recipe to Paprika", or when a recipe is shared and export to Paprika is implied.

Paprika Recipe Importer

Convert recipe content (any format/language) into a .paprikarecipes file for Paprika 3.

Extract recipe fields from the input (text, image, transcript, URL content).
Build a JSON recipe object — only include fields actually present in the source; do NOT invent values.
Run the packaging script to produce the .paprikarecipes file.
Deliver the file to the user.

Parse the input and populate only the fields that exist in the source:

JSON field	Notes
`name`	Recipe title. Required.
`ingredients`	Newline-separated list. Format: `quantity unit ingredient`.
`directions`	Newline-separated steps.
`description`	Intro/summary paragraph, if present.
`notes`	Tips, variations, author notes.
`servings`	e.g. `"4 porções"` or `"serves 6"`
`prep_time`	e.g. `"15 min"`
`cook_time`	e.g. `"30 min"`
`total_time`	e.g. `"45 min"`
`source`	Author name, site name, person.
`source_url`	Original URL, if available.
`categories`	JSON array of strings, e.g. `["Jantar", "Massas"]`
`difficulty`	`"Easy"`, `"Medium"`, or `"Hard"` — only if explicitly stated.
`rating`	Integer 1–5 — only if explicitly stated.
`nutritional_info`	Any nutritional data present.

Rules:

Never fabricate values not present in the source.
Keep the original language (Portuguese, English, mixed — whatever the source uses).
Ingredients: one per line, preserve quantities and units exactly.
Directions: one step per line; numbered steps → strip the number (Paprika handles display).

Write the recipe as a JSON file to a temp path, e.g. /tmp/<recipe-name>.json.

python3 ~/.openclaw/skills/paprika-recipe-importer/scripts/build_paprikarecipes.py \
  /tmp/<recipe-name>.json \
  /tmp/<recipe-name>.paprikarecipes

The script accepts a single JSON object or a JSON array (for multiple recipes).

Send the .paprikarecipes file to the user. Mention:

How to import: File → Import in Paprika (or double-click the file on macOS/iOS).
Which fields were found and which were absent from the source.
