## Product shape

- Compare multiple grocery product URLs before creating a watch task or compare-aware watch group.
- Keep compare candidates alive inside a watch group so the best current option can change over time.
- Use optional AI-assisted explanations to explain compare evidence, watch-group decisions, and recovery guidance without replacing deterministic product truth.
- Track listed price together with cashback-adjusted effective price and runtime health signals.
- Review task runs, group runs, price history, and delivery events from one UI.
- Expose compare, watch, runtime, notification, and store cockpit truth through a thin read-only MCP server.
- Print repo-owned client starter metadata through `python -m dealwatcherer.mcp client-starters --json`.
- Read the repo-owned builder contract through `GET /api/runtime/builder-starter-pack` or `get_builder_starter_pack`.
- Read one exact per-client recipe export through `python -m dealwatcherer builder-client-config <client> --json`, `GET /api/runtime/builder-client-config/{client}`, or `get_builder_client_config`.
- Read the full all-clients recipe bundle through `python -m dealwatcherer builder-client-config --all --json`, `GET /api/runtime/builder-client-configs`, or `list_builder_client_configs`.
- Keep AI positioning narrow: AI-assisted compare explanations, watch-group explanations, and recovery guidance are live today.
- Local-first runtime with FastAPI API, APScheduler worker, Preact WebUI, and PostgreSQL.

## Boundaries

- Not a hosted SaaS.
- Not a generic chat bot or autonomous agent.
- Not a broad or builder-facing buy / wait recommendation engine. The shipped recommendation surface is limited to the local Compare Preview runtime flow.
- Not a hosted plugin runtime or a universally accepted client listing today. PyPI and the Official MCP Registry are already live public surfaces, while OpenClaw still lacks fresh public ClawHub listing proof, OpenHands `#151` is closed and unmerged, MCP.so `#1558` is still waiting on host acceptance, and the Chrome companion remains not published.
