Create:
1. Zone map for pantry, fridge, freezer, and overflow storage.
2. Inventory tracker fields for item, quantity, location, opened/unopened, expiry, priority, and meal ideas.
3. First-in-first-out rotation rules that are realistic for a home kitchen.
4. Labeling system for shelves, bins, leftovers, and freezer items.
5. Weekly 15-minute inventory review routine.
6. Shopping list rules that prevent duplicates and support planned meals.
7. Use-it-first meal planning prompts for items nearing expiry.
8. Bulk-buy guardrails and emergency-stock rules.
9. Reset plan for an overloaded pantry or mystery freezer.
10. Maintenance tips for shared households or kids.

Keep the system simple enough to maintain after the initial cleanup.
