Upstream Issue

Problem

Users want to quickly find spools of a specific color but there is no color filter option.

Proposed Solution

Option A: Color Picker Filter

Add a color picker/palette in the filter bar. Filter shows spools with similar colors (within a tolerance).

Show a dropdown of all colors currently in use, with swatches. Click to filter by that exact color.

Option C: Color Family Filter

Group colors into families (reds, blues, greens, blacks, whites, etc.) and filter by family.

Implementation Notes

Backend

Add color_hex filter parameter to spool list endpoint
Consider fuzzy color matching (colors within X distance in RGB/HSL space)

Frontend

Add color filter UI to spool list page
Could use Ant Design ColorPicker or custom swatch grid
Show color preview in filter chip when active
