Apotheca

Apotheca is a smart consumable bar for WoW Classic: The Burning Crusade / Classic Anniversary built to keep your most important recovery and upkeep items visible, organized, and easy to use.

It scans your bags, picks the best available consumables, and displays them in a compact configurable bar that updates automatically as your inventory, buffs, cooldowns, and combat state change.

It can:

It also includes options for healer-focused visibility, so the bar can stay out of the way when it is not relevant.
