Chip Fetcher Lite
Public Made by Adomby adom
Lightweight wiki-first component staging area. Add a component, check the Adom wiki for KiCad/Altium/Fusion files, upload what's missing, then file the symbol + footprint + 3D model straight into your EDA libraries — with library destinations matched per manufacturer and a clean 5-field symbol.

When you just want to know *"is this part on the Adom wiki, and do I have the+KiCad / Altium / Fusion files?"* — and then file the good ones straight into your libraries —+this is the tool.++## What it does++1. **Add a component** (by MPN, or a description like `100nF 0402 capacitor`). It's added to a+ list and checked against the Adom wiki. Descriptions resolve to the real MPN page.+2. **See file availability at a glance.** Each row has four status boxes — **KiCad · Altium ·+ Fusion · JLC** — that colour independently:+ - KiCad/Altium/Fusion: red (0 of symbol/footprint/3D) · yellow (1–2) · green (all 3). Hover for the breakdown.+ - JLC: green if a JLCPCB/LCSC part number is known, red otherwise. Click to set one.+3. **Upload what's missing.** Drop a `.kicad_sym` / `.kicad_mod` / `.step` etc. onto a row;+ it's held in a local staging area and the box turns green.+4. **Probe your libraries.** With one click the app scans your machine (via adom-desktop) for+ your KiCad/Altium/Fusion libraries and shows, per row, exactly where each file will go:+ - **Symbol** → your JLC category library (`JLC_Capacitors_BLT.kicad_sym`, `JLC_MCUs_BLT`, …)+ - **Footprint** → the manufacturer `.pretty` (or the KiCad **stock** footprint for generic passives — locked, marked *KiCad default*)+ - **3D** → the manufacturer subfolder under your `3D/` directory+ - New libraries are flagged **new** and created on send. The folder/file name is shown; hover for the full path.+5. **Send to library.** Files the symbol (merged into the category lib, trimmed to the 5+ standard fields + LCSC), the footprint, and the 3D model onto your machine, creating and+ registering any missing libraries. A live progress bar shows each step.++Rows are grouped under category headers (Resistor, Capacitor, LED, …). Multi-select ++**Select all**, and pick which EDA targets to send to.++## How it stays "lite"++It does **not** scrape vendors, generate symbols, or run cross-source validation. It reads the+wiki, stages files, and files them — nothing heavier. Adding 138 basic parts at once checks+the wiki for all of them (bounded to 4 concurrent lookups) without breaking a sweat.++## Architecture++- **Runtime:** Node.js, **zero native dependencies** (pure `http`).+- **Frontend:** a single `public/index.html`, vanilla JS, dark Adom theme (Familjen Grotesk /+ Satoshi / JetBrains Mono).+- **Storage:** `data/data.json` + `data/staging/<id>/` for uploaded files (runtime only — not shipped).+- **Wiki:** `adompkg search` + `wiki.adom.inc/api/v1/pages/<slug>` + `/blob/component/<slug>/<file>`.+- **Desktop:** library probe + file delivery go through the **adom-desktop** bridge.++## Run++```bash+node server.js # listens on :7821 (CFL_PORT to override)+node cli.js app # open as a Hydrogen webview+```++See **SKILL.md** for how an AI agent drives it, and **DEVELOPING.md** for the architecture+notes and hard-won gotchas (start there if you're extending it).
