Amnezia
by stubfuck
Amnezia restructures crafting progression, so players begin with only basic recipes and learn the rest by finding scrolls in structure chests.
What it does
Players start knowing only planks, sticks, and wooden and stone tools. Every other recipe has to be discovered by finding scrolls, which are placed in 60+ structures and can be found in chests. Each scroll teaches one recipe group, and parent scrolls open entire categories at once. The mod covers 782 recipes across 6 rarity tiers, and the rarity of a scroll decides how it is distributed and how it looks.
Distribution, loot tables and the structures are configurable through JSON files, and the mod can be dropped into the mods folder with no other setup. An optional hardcore mode adds a death penalty that resets learned recipes, and it is off by default. Amnezia requires Fabric Loader and runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need it. Files cover 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and the code is released under the MIT License.
Key features
Recipe discovery through scrolls
Recipes stay hidden until the matching scroll is found, and learned recipes are then available in the crafting grid.
Hierarchical recipe groups
Parent scrolls open whole categories, so one find can make a family of related recipes available.
Six rarity tiers
Scrolls use six rarity tiers, shown by colored glow that resembles the enchantment effect, and rarer scrolls are placed more selectively.
Optional recipe loss on death
A configurable death penalty resets the recipes a player has learned, for servers that want a harder survival loop.
JSON-based configuration
Loot tables, structure placement and distribution are set in JSON files, so server owners can tune the progression.

How it compares
Ebic's Tiers is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 with the same Client and server environment, released under All rights reserved and not open source. RandomEnchantJump is also Fabric for 1.21.11 and client and server, but it changes enchantments rather than recipes, and it is released under the MIT License without being open source. GiveMeRecipes is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.21.9 – 1.21.10, so clients need nothing installed.
