ae2helpers is a Quality of Life addon for Applied Energistics 2 designed to make autocrafting setups smoother and more compact.
Features
1. Crafting Result Import Card: A specialized upgrade for the Pattern Provider.
- What it does: Allows a Pattern Provider to push ingredients to a machine and pull the finished results back using the same face.
- Benefit: Eliminates the need for separate Import Buses or Item Pipes.
- Only useful / needed on machines that don't automatically push their results to neighboring machines (such as the vanilla furnace).
2. Automatic Recipe Insertion: An improved Crafting Terminal workflow.
- What it does: When you request an autocraft for a recipe in the terminal, the grid enters a "waiting" state with Ghost Items.
- Benefit: The moment your CPUs finish the job, the items are automatically inserted into the grid. No more waiting around to click the recipe again!
- Works with JEI, EMI and REI
Small showcase of the automatic insertion. Notice how the items are automatically loaded into the crafting grid:

This mod (obviously) requires AE2 to be installed. I will not be backporting it. There's a config for the added features.
Includes compatibility with applied flux and me soul card. Since they both add upgrade slots to the pattern provider, I decided to go the non-invasive route and just add a separate slot to avoid needing mixins into those mods.
@AE2 / RS2 devs: Feel free to copy this feature (and/or code).
Used in the pattern provider.
Can be used to configure each card individually
Without the new card, a separate import bus would be needed to import results from machines that can't auto output
With the new import card, the single pattern can automatically import the results
When crafting something via JEI/EMI/REI, ghost items will appear as placeholders for the pending items, and they'll automatically be filled in.
