Boss Score Toggle
by spunkyinsaan
Players who find the boss bar or scoreboard sidebar distracting can hide either one with Boss Score Toggle, a Fabric mod that adds commands for showing and hiding them.
What it does
Boss Score Toggle lets a player switch the boss bar and the scoreboard display on or off at any time. The switches are simple commands, so a player can clear the screen during a fight or a build and restore it later without restarting the game. A choice made once is remembered and applies globally across game sessions, so the display does not reset each time the world is loaded.
The mod is a lightweight Fabric addition for the 1.21 line. Its settings persist, though a reapply step is needed after a change takes effect. Only the player's client needs the mod, while a server may add it or leave it out. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Files exist for 1.21 – 1.21.11, and 1.21.11 is the latest Fabric build, published on 2026-01-25.
Key features
Boss bar toggle
A command hides or shows the boss bar, so bosses and events stop covering the top of the screen.
Scoreboard toggle
A separate command hides or shows the scoreboard sidebar, independent of the boss bar switch.
Remembered settings
The chosen visibility is saved and reapplied in later game sessions, applying globally to the player.
Simple commands
Both toggles run from short chat commands, with no menus or configuration files to edit.

Latest build for each game version and loader.

Use cases
Boss fights
A player can hide the boss bar during a fight to keep the view of the arena clear, then show it again afterwards.
Building and screenshots
With the scoreboard hidden, the sidebar no longer covers the view when a player builds or takes screenshots.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric 1.21 who want to control the boss bar and scoreboard display, in single-player or on multiplayer servers that allow client mods.
How it compares
BossBar Toggle is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.19.3 – 1.21.11, released under All rights reserved and not open source, so it covers only the boss bar. Bossbar Tweaks is also client-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, with builds for 1.21.9 – 26.2, which makes it a fit for a wider version span. Boss Score Toggle also hides the scoreboard and remembers the choice between sessions.
