bro/ken
by cert1e
bro/ken is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.19.3 with features that act on other players, including kicking them, giving effects, playing sounds and sending chat messages.
What it does
Its functions are aimed at server pranks and mischief rather than gameplay expansion. A player can be kicked, given status effects, played a sound, or sent a chat message, and the mod can also generate structures in the world. The author describes it as a fan-made version of Broken Script and calls the release an alpha preview of a broken mod, so behavior may be unstable.
The mod is marked as deprecated in its own description, and the author warns that it can interfere with world and server state, which may get a player blacklisted or banned. Multiplayer is supported. Fabric API is required for this build.
Files exist only for Fabric and only for 1.19.3. The latest file is 0.0.5-preview2, published on 2025-10-02 on the alpha channel, after a first release on 2025-04-26. The environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, and the mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
