# ce.mfg.factory-lookup

> Shenzhen manufacturers, each page built from the factory's own public website and confirmed by the factory itself before it appears here. Free for the factory, no commission. Operated by Leif Rydenfalk, individual, company registration pending. Shenzhen.

Confirmed factories right now: 0.
No factory has confirmed yet. That is the real count, not a failure to load.

## Endpoints

- [https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/factories.json](https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/factories.json): every confirmed factory, one array, the whole file.
- [https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/factories/<id>.json](https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/factories.json): one record with its sources and its verification evidence.
- [https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/llms.txt](https://factory-lookup.ce-net.com/llms.txt): this file.

Slice 2 adds /search and POST /factories/<id>/inquiry on a Worker. They do not exist yet; until then, filter factories.json yourself.

## Record shape

```json
{"schema":"ce.mfg.factory-lookup/0.1","id":"f-example-com","name_zh":"…","name_en":"…",
 "domain":"example.com","city":"深圳","district":"宝安","categories":["pcba-smt"],
 "processes":["smt"],"materials":[],
 "certifications":[{"name":"ISO 9001","version":"2015","label":"ISO 9001:2015",
   "claim":"certified","quote":"…","source":"…","sha256":"…"}],
 "verified":"domain-email","verified_at":"…","updated":"…","sources":[{"url":"…","sha256":"…"}]}
```

## Rules an agent should rely on

1. Match a factory by `domain`. Names change, domains do not. `id` is derived from the domain.
2. `factories` null means the roster is unavailable. An empty array means nobody has confirmed. A stale file carries `stale_since`.
3. `verified` is one of domain-email, in-person. A record that is not verified is not in this file.
4. Every value came from the factory's own website or from the factory itself, with the source URL and the SHA-256 of the page it was read from. Nothing here is our own assessment of a factory, and there is no ranking.
5. A certification's `claim` is one of `certified`, `conforms` or `mentioned`, taken from the claim word nearest that standard in the sentence it was read from. Only `certified` means the page said the factory holds the certificate. Never report `conforms` or `mentioned` as certified, and never drop `version` where the page stated one. cn.honpe.com says 已通过 IATF 16949 认证，并同时符合 ISO 9001、ISO 14001 标准: that is one certificate and two conformities.
6. `processes` is empty unless the factory filled it in itself. It is never derived from `categories`, because no sentence on the factory's website would back it.
7. This site cannot quote a price, cannot confirm a factory on its own, and cannot deliver an inquiry without a human approving it.
