BindAlias
by Prohect
Players who repeat the same in-game steps can bind them to one key with BindAlias, a Fabric client mod for custom aliases, key bindings and chained actions.
What it does
BindAlias lets a player create named aliases that run one or several in-game actions, such as swapping inventory slots, using an item or waiting a set number of ticks. Each alias can be attached to a key and react to a key press or a key release. Built-in aliases cover common actions such as swapSlot, wait, use and attack, so basic macros work without any setup. Aliases and bindings are managed with commands like alias and bind, and they are written to a config file that loads automatically when the player joins a server.
The mod is a client mod that requires Fabric API, and it is installed by placing the JAR in the mods folder next to a matching Fabric Loader. Files are published for Minecraft 1.21 – 1.21.11 and for 26.1 – 26.2, with 1.12.0 for 26.2 as the latest build, released on 2026-08-08 under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which makes it open source. Source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are linked from the project.
Key features
Custom aliases
A single alias can hold one action or a sequence of actions, and it can be reused in any number of key bindings.
Chained actions
Several aliases can be combined into one sequence, for example equipping an elytra, using a firework and then flying.
Variables
Values such as the hotbar slot, pitch and yaw, or item counts can be captured and reused by later actions.
Command system
Aliases and bindings are managed in game through commands for creating, binding and unbinding entries.

How it compares
Custom Command is client-side only, has a custom license that is not open source, and covers 1.21 – 1.21.11. Command alias maker is also client-side only, is not open source under All rights reserved, and covers 1.20.1 – 1.21.11. Multi Key Bindings is client-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and covers 1.20 – 26.3, so it spans a wider version range than BindAlias.
