Quick start

Open the options panel and configure everything in-game:

/cfh

In the options panel you can:

Cloaks: add ItemIDs, see current cloaks (with names), and remove entries.
Specializations: Configure fiber preferences for each spec across three game modes:
- Outdoor: General world content
- M+: Mythic+ dungeons (detected automatically)
- Raid: Raid instances (detected automatically)

Manually trigger a scan at any time:

/cfh scan

Configuring fiber preferences

Preferred method: Use the options panel (Options → AddOns → Cloak Fiber Helper or /cfh).

The options panel shows a table with:

Rows: Your specializations (e.g., Brewmaster, Mistweaver, Windwalker)
Columns: Game modes (Outdoor, M+, Raid)
Dropdowns: Select the desired fiber for each spec/mode combination

Legacy slash commands (for Outdoor mode only): Valid categories: crit, haste, versa (versatility), mastery (or their localized names).

Assign for your current spec: /cfh set crit
Assign for a specific spec ID: /cfh set haste 266

Tip: Use /cfh show to list your specs with their spec IDs and current assignments.

Restricting to allowed cloak ItemIDs

Preferred: use the options panel to add/remove ItemIDs in the Cloaks section.

Alternatively, replace the list with a comma-separated list:

/cfh cloaks 235499,12345,67890

The scan will only succeed if the equipped cloak's ItemID is in this list.

When does the addon scan?

On login/entering world (after a short delay)
When you change the cloak in equipment slot 15
When you change specialization
When entering different content types (Outdoor ↔ Mythic+ ↔ Raid)
On demand via /cfh scan

You may also see a small button labeled "Scan now" that triggers the same check.

Session control

You can temporarily disable popup warnings if you're intentionally using a different fiber:

Chat commands:
- /cfh sessiondisable - Disable popup warnings for this session (until reload/relog)
- /cfh sessionenable - Re-enable popup warnings for this session
Automatic hint: When wrong fiber is detected, the addon shows these commands in chat

Messages and popups

Console/chat messages are prefixed with [CFH] and show the current game mode context.

Success: Cloak and fiber are OK for <Category>
Warnings/Errors:
- No allowed cloak equipped.
- No fiber detected in cloak.
- Unassigned (spec <id>) — No fiber preference set for current spec/mode
- Equipped fiber <Actual> is not in desired category <Expected>.

Popups (appear once per session unless condition changes):

Wrong fiber: Shows actual vs expected fiber category
No allowed cloak: Notification when equipped cloak is not in allowed list

Session control hints: When wrong fiber is detected, chat shows available commands to disable/enable popup warnings.

Localization

Currently supported: English (enUS) and German (deDE). To add a new locale, add a new file under Locales/ (e.g., frFR.lua) populating the CGH_L table.

Troubleshooting

If item data is not yet cached by the client, the addon will delay and auto-rescan once data is available.
Ensure your cloak has a socket and an inserted fiber. If no fiber is detected, the scan will warn you.
If you changed your cloak or spec, run /cfh scan to re-check immediately.
