Block Info
Block Info shows details about the block under the crosshair, so players can read a block's state without opening menus.
What it does
Holding the crosshair over certain blocks displays information about them, such as the contents or status of a block, without opening its screen. The mod covers a set of blocks that the author lists as features, including waxed blocks, infested blocks, bee nests, item frames and flower pots. Its effect is limited to showing this data on screen; it does not change how the blocks behave.
The mod requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric only, with files for twelve release versions from 1.21 up to 1.21.11. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it and players may install it alone. The latest Fabric file is 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, published on 2025-12-19 after a first release on 2025-12-18. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Players who want a quick readout of block contents while building or farming can use it alongside vanilla gameplay. Alternatives in the same management area are listed in the comparison below.
Key features
Crosshair block readout
Looking at a supported block shows its information on screen, without a separate menu.
Waxed and infested blocks
Waxed blocks and infested blocks are among the block types the readout covers.
Bee nests and flower pots
Bee nests and flower pots display their details when targeted, which helps when checking occupancy or planting.
Item frames
Item frames show the item they hold when pointed at, so contents are visible from a distance.

How it compares
Bee Info is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 – 26.1, client-side only and released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Custom Crosshair X is also client-side only, for a range that matches Block Info's own files, and is not open source; it changes the crosshair rather than reading block data. Moon Info Updated is client-side only, open source under the MIT License, and published for 1.21.1 alone.
