Tacklebox Master System turns save-editor item codes and item-card screenshots into a searchable local research library. Decode and compare builds, document testing, extract card stats with local OCR, and safely update the parts reference when the shared workbook changes.
Decode item parts, search saved builds, and keep research organized in one place.
Browse item-card screenshots alongside reviewed OCR stats and linked builds.

TMS does not upload item codes, builds, screenshots, OCR results, or notes. Each
Windows user starts with an empty personal library stored locally under
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Tacklebox Master System.
Installing a newer version preserves that library. The public installer does not contain the developer's builds, item cards, tests, or backups.
