Cinder is now Tomoshibi 灯火 — same scraper, better name
Description and use
Cinder renamed to Tomoshibi. Migration is simple: two steps. API, Docker, npm, and Go module updated, old URLs redirect, functionality unchanged.
Problem
Existing users of Cinder needed to migrate to a new repository name while preserving functionality and minimizing disruption.
Outcome
Migration is trivial: two lines of change. API endpoints, Docker images, npm package, and Go imports remain compatible. Old URLs redirect, stars preserved, and no breaking changes to API.
Workflow
- Clone new repo: git clone https://github.com/Michael-Obele/tomoshibi.git
- Run Docker Compose: docker compose up -d
- Verify health: curl http://localhost:7431/health
- Configure MCP: set command to npx, args to -y tomoshi, env TOMOSHIBI_API_URL
- Import Go package: import "github.com/Michael-Obele/tomoshibi/packages/api/internal/scraper"
Evidence
Migration is two lines.
Old GitHub URL redirects and stars carried over.
