Inventory search tooling

Locate on-hand inventory across vetted partners with filters for lifecycle risk, packaging, and fulfillment region.

Filter by availability and risk

Use `inStockOnly`, `minQuantity`, and `lifecycle` filters to guarantee production-ready parts. Responses include `availability.available` quantities per partner.

const { components } = await client.call("inventory.search", {
  query: "ESP32-C3",
  inStockOnly: true,
  limit: 10
});

Inspect alternates

Set `includeAlternates: true` to fetch vetted substitutes. Each entry contains fit/function notes and compliance flags to speed up design reviews.

Alternates include `justification` strings summarizing datasheet differences.
Use alternates with automation triggers to propose replacements before stock-outs occur.
