What problem does it solve?
It eliminates the manual, time‑consuming process of verifying component availability, pricing, and footprint correctness for JLCPCB/LCSC parts when preparing a BOM for PCB assembly.
Core Features & Use Cases
- BOM verification (
check): Parses the project's BOM CSV and reports stock status, pricing tiers, and part types for every LCSC component.
- Catalog search (
search <query>): Retrieves the top matching parts from the JLCPCB catalog based on a free‑form query.
- Footprint lookup (
footprint <LCSC_PART>): Fetches detailed footprint data via the EasyEDA API for accurate PCB design.
- Part detail lookup (
<LCSC_PART>): Shows full specifications, stock levels, and price tiers for a single LCSC part number.
- Use Case: An engineering team can run
/jlcpcb-parts check before ordering PCBs to ensure every component is in stock, affordable, and has the correct footprint.
Quick Start
Run /jlcpcb-parts check to scan the BOM and receive a summarized stock and price report.
