Summary

Distinguish between spools in active use vs spools in storage/inventory.

Upstream Issue

Problem

Users with large collections (5-10 spools of same filament) dont add them all to Spoolman because it clutters printer selection in Mainsail.

Current State

  • Archive: removes spool from active use (depleted/discarded)
  • No way to mark "in storage but available"

Proposed Solution

New Status: Storage

Spool Status:
- Active: currently in use, shown to printers
- Storage: in inventory, not shown to printers by default
- Archived: depleted/discarded, hidden

API Filtering

  • Default API response: active spools only
  • ?include_storage=true to include storage spools
  • Moonraker/Mainsail sees clean list

UI

  • Storage badge on spool cards
  • Filter toggle: Show storage spools
  • Inventory counts: "3 active, 7 in storage"
  • Easy promote: Storage -> Active with one click

Benefits

  • Track full inventory without cluttering printer UI
  • Know exactly how many spools you have
  • Streamlined printer selection
