# Pandough

Pandough is a flour-aware bread and pizza dough manager. Bakers define their
real flour, kitchen and fridge temperatures, oven, and schedule. Pandough
combines those conditions into precise ingredient weights, computed yeast,
a temperature-aware proofing schedule, and validated dough warnings.

## Farina Prima — the flour-first method

"Farina Prima" is the term Pandough coins for the flour-first method. You start
with the bag the baker actually owns, using its W strength, protein, and
hydration curve to establish viable hydration and fermentation boundaries.
Pandough then adapts the bake to the baker's temperatures, oven, and timing.

- flour-first (Farina Prima): the real flour sets the dough's viable envelope.
- real-condition planning: kitchen, fridge, oven, and schedule complete the plan.
- recipe-first (the villain): a static recipe ignores the baker's actual conditions.

The engine literally works this way: flour characteristics shape hydration,
maturation, and part of the yeast model; temperatures and stage durations drive
effective fermentation; the selected oven shapes bake and hydration guidance.

## MCP endpoint

Pandough exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server over Streamable HTTP:

  https://pandough.app/api/mcp

One URL. Flour search, plan_bake, troubleshoot, and oven search need no login.
list_active_bakes (Pro, the baker's own bakes) returns HTTP 401 until the client
runs Clerk OAuth on this same endpoint. Do not add a second connector.

Tools:
- search_flours       — find flours by name, brand, strength, or use case.
- get_flour_details   — full data for a flour (W strength, protein, hydration curve, maturation).
- plan_bake           — compute a full bake: ingredient weights, yeast %, proofing schedule, warnings.
- troubleshoot        — diagnose dough problems and get flour-first corrections.
- search_ovens        — find oven profiles and recommended bake settings.
- list_active_bakes   — signed-in Pro only; first call triggers OAuth.
