Shopping & ErrandsDone with custom-built or unnamed agent Jun 13, 2026
Order groceries online with a local LLM skill
The author built a grocery skill for a local Qwen 3.6 27B model that knows their fridge contents, past orders and real-time stock, and it ordered products for them online.
- What They Did
- The author built a grocery shopping skill for a local Qwen 3.6 27B model. It gives the model a loose picture of what's in their fridge, about 10 representative past orders covering preferences and local shops and SKUs, and real-time in-stock information. With that in context, the model placed an online grocery order.
- How It Went
- The order went through while the author was cooking pasta, and they say the local model fully solved the real-time stock problem that cooking-ingredient delivery products never did. Open-ended or ambitious tasks still go faster with Claude or ChatGPT.
- Worth Knowing
- It works best when the answer is already in the context, so the effort goes into building a knowledge base: fridge contents, order history, and live stock data.

Build me a grocery skill that reads my fridge list in [file or note], my past orders from [store], and current stock at [store website]. Then fill a cart with what I'm running low on for [number] days of meals. Pause and show me the cart and total before checkout, and stop once I've approved the order.
