Autototem detector
by Arki
Autototem detector is a Fabric client mod that estimates how quickly nearby players swap a totem into their off-hand.
What it does
The mod runs only on the client and watches for other players swapping a totem. When it detects a swap, it posts a chat message that names the player, and the detection carries a confidence value. Accuracy is limited, since the mod works from what the client can observe, so the result is an estimate rather than a certainty.
The mod also measures the speed of the player's own swaps. A HUD icon shows that speed, and a hotbar alert can flash when a swap happens. Session and all-time totals and averages are kept in a Stats tab. The chat format accepts placeholders, each of which can be given its own color, and the name used for autototeming can be changed.
Autototem detector requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API. It is published for Fabric only, with a single game version, 1.21.11, and the latest file, 1.0, dates from 2026-02-03. The code is released under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.
