Pick a nearby meal that fits your calorie budget
A developer built Walk-Kcal, an agent skill that checks nearby restaurants and McDonald's official nutrition data and marks which dishes fit your calorie budget after walking.
Done with Custom agent
What they did
A developer built a skill for agents and chat bots. You give a calorie budget and location. It adds 4 kcal per 80 meters walked, lists nearby restaurants, pulls McDonald's official nutrition and estimates other dishes from 1.55 million recipes.
How it went
The author says it outputs a phone-sized image marking each dish green or red. They found many McDonald's items fit a normal meal budget, while a nearby noodle-shop rice dish started at 780 kcal.
Worth knowing
Maps and recipe data are Chinese only. Non-McDonald's estimates can be off by about a quarter, so the tool shows 'unknown' rather than guess when data is thin.
Try it yourself
I have [calorie budget] kcal left for this meal and I am at [your address]. I am willing to walk up to [distance] meters; add about 4 kcal to my budget for every 80 meters. Find restaurants within that walk, list their popular dishes, and estimate calories per dish using official nutrition data where it exists. Say where each number comes from and how unsure it is, and mark 'unknown' instead of guessing. Show a table of dishes that fit my budget and ones that go over.
