HelpmeSolder

Soldering guides you can just follow.

Tell your AI assistant what you want to build. You get a step-by-step guide showing exactly what to solder and where, with no circuit diagrams to decode.

Your chat plans it. We draw it from real parts.

HelpmeSolder is not a chatbot. Your own Claude or Cursor does the planning and calls our tools. Every diagram is drawn from a parts catalog, so pins are never invented.

  1. Plan in chat

    Describe your project to Claude or Cursor. It picks a board and parts from the catalog and asks about power and sensors.

  2. Tools write the guide

    MCP tools add parts, wires and steps. Bad pins or unsafe voltages are blocked, with safer alternatives suggested.

  3. Open the link

    You get a secret URL with a parts prep list, a full wiring diagram and step-by-step soldering notes. It updates as the chat iterates.

Connect it to your AI in two minutes

This is a small plug that lets your AI assistant, like Claude or Cursor, use HelpmeSolder. You add one web address, once. Then you can ask your assistant for a soldering guide. There is nothing to install and no key to find.

  1. Add the address to your AI app

    Choose your app with the switch and follow the numbered steps. In some menus you will see the letters MCP. That is the name of the plug. If the app asks, restart it.

  2. Say what you want to build

    Claude asks which power source and sensor you have, then replies with a secret link to your guide.

    Use HelpmeSolder to make me a guide for an ESP32 that reads a soil moisture sensor and sounds a buzzer when the soil is dry.

Pick the app you use. Not sure which one you use? Start with the Claude app.

Easiest way. For the Claude app or claude.ai in your browser. No coding.

How do I know it worked?

Start a new chat and ask this:

What can HelpmeSolder do?

It should list tools like create_guide and add_part. Or just describe your project and it will start asking about power and sensors.

Eight tools, one guide

list_catalog
Browse boards, modules, passives and ready-made recipes.
get_part_details
Read a part in full: how to tell it apart, pins, voltage limits and what to watch out for.
create_guide
Start a guide and get its secret link.
ask_power_source
Ask you how the build is powered, never guessing.
ask_sensor
Ask you which exact sensor or input module to use.
add_part
Place a catalog part on the guide.
add_connection
Wire two exact pins together.
set_steps
Write the ordered soldering steps and notes.
validate_guide
Check pins and voltages, and get alternatives for any problem.

Guides live at a secret, unguessable link. There are no accounts, so anyone with the link can view the guide.

Your guide link is private and unlisted. Guides are deleted automatically if nobody opens them for 30 days. Opening or updating a guide resets the timer.
