Say once who is in your household and what each person cannot have. From then on every search leaves those ingredients out for the people who are eating. When one of them is out for the night, say so and the search opens up again for the rest.
Agents make mistakes and recipes are as their sources published them. If an allergy is dangerous, read the ingredient list and the labels yourself before you cook.
Paste this into Claude or ChatGPT
Sam is our kid, allergic to tomatoes and chocolate. Dad and I eat anything, Mum hates cilantro. Weeknight dinners 40 minutes at most.
In Claude it is also in the + menu under ask.recipes: Set up my kitchen
What happens
Per person, not per account. Each person on the profile carries their own allergens, dislikes and likes. A kid's elimination diet lives on the kid, and "we don't eat cilantro" lives on the household.
Products count. A jar of marinara is tomato and a brownie mix is chocolate. Both are left out for the person who cannot have them.
Who is at the table tonight. A search can name who is eating, by name or by role such as adults or kids. Only their exclusions apply.
Three asks, as served
The wording of the agent's replies varies; the recipes, times, ratings and ingredient lines are as served. Sam, Dad and Mum are placeholders.

You"Brownies for Sam's class on Friday."
Your agent
search_recipes brownies · get_recipe ×6
Six well-rated brownies. Four use cocoa and one a boxed brownie mix, so they are out for Sam. One is chocolate-free:
Brown sugar, butterscotch chips and nuts. If the class has a nut rule, leave the nuts out. Check the butterscotch chips' label; some brands run on shared lines with chocolate.
Say it in passing. "Sam can't have berries either" adds one allergen to Sam and changes nothing else.
Roles work as names. "The kids are out" is a search for the adults. Give each person a role when you set up and the agent can address the group.
Dislikes work the same way. "Mum hates cilantro" is left out of every search Mum is in.
A dangerous allergy needs your eyes. Read the ingredient list and the labels of what you buy. Agents make mistakes and recipes are as their sources published them.
Additives are out of scope. Sodium benzoate or an E number never appears as an ingredient line. Tell the agent to stay away from processed ingredients.
