Inventory Waste Optimizer

Autonomous inventory management and waste reduction agent for QSRs. Cross-references sales data with inventory levels to forecast ordering and flag excessive waste. Hardened with ThumbGate to prevent over-ordering.

Autonomous Inventory & Waste Optimizer with ThumbGate Safety

What This Agent Does

• Monitors sales logs and inventory levels in Google Sheets.
• Detects patterns of excessive waste (e.g., high prep-to-sale variance).
• Generates weekly restock recommendations.
• Flags "at-risk" inventory about to expire.
• Uses ThumbGate to ensure no single order exceeds historical norms by >50%.

Critical ThumbGate Rules

• Sanity Check: Block any restock recommendation that is >50% higher than the 4-week average without manual override.
• Zero-Sum Validation: Ensure Prep + Beginning Inventory - End Inventory = Sales. If variance > 5%, trigger an alert.
• Price Guard: Block any supply order where unit price has jumped >20% since last week.
