fl-eats

Three things built from one pipeline (modeled on ../wi-eats/ and ../co-eats/, which are never modified):

1. The web leaderboard: every Florida restaurant on several boards, published as a private claude.ai Artifact from site/ (generated by scripts/make-leaderboard.py). It uses the UCSD Google Local 2021 snapshot for ratings, labeled "2021" everywhere, so site/ never goes in a public repo.
2. Florida Eats, a free iPhone and iPad app (FloridaEats/, XcodeGen project.yml). No Google-derived data: places come from the State of Florida's food service licenses and Overture Maps open data. Ratings and hours come live from Apple Maps' own place card.
3. The website in docs/ (generated by scripts/make-site.py): landing page, guides, county and city pages, the web app at /explore/, privacy, terms. QA with scripts/qa-site.py.

See CLAUDE.md for the rules and commands. playbook/ holds:

• 12-sources.md: sources and calibration
• 06-app-store-listing.md: the App Store listing
• 13-app-review-reply.md: the App Review reply and the recording script
• 14-site.md: the website
• 15-launch-steps.md: every outward step, none done yet
• hub/: the eatsranked.com hub entry

Official records

• Florida DBPR, Division of Hotels and Restaurants (public records, Ch. 119 F.S., published weekly). It covers food service licenses (every seating, non-seating, catering and theme park license), routine and complaint inspections since July 2023, emergency closure reports and final orders. The app and site show DBPR's own disposition and result group (Met Inspection Standards / Follow-Up Inspection Required / Facility Temporarily Closed) with dates and violation counts. Florida doesn't grade restaurants, and neither do we.
• DBPR's and FDACS's inspection searches are one-search-at-a-time forms; they're linked, never scraped.

Hand-checked research

data/research/ (private) holds:

• the MICHELIN Guide Florida 2026 selection (200 restaurants) and James Beard honors (finalists never called wins)
• regional lists of Cuban sandwiches and cafecito windows, stone crabs, grouper and seafood shacks, Keys classics, oyster bars, fish camps, Latin and Caribbean kitchens and the oldest places, each with a 2025–26 source
• closures with sources
• leads that couldn't be verified (data/research/app/LEADS_*.md)
