Caldris
by Ravex
Caldris is a Fabric utility mod for Minecraft 26.2 that adds quality-of-life changes to everyday play.
What it does
Caldris targets the small frictions of regular play: menus, routine actions and interface steps that take more clicks than they need. Its changes are meant to sit alongside vanilla behavior rather than replace it, so the core feel of the game stays the same while routine actions become quicker. The author describes the goal as keeping features simple and light to pick up, without adding new systems to learn.
Caldris requires Fabric API, which must be installed alongside it on Fabric. The mod runs on the client and the server, so both the server and every player need it. Files exist only for 26.2, and the latest is 1.0.0, published on 2026-09-11 on the beta channel. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. The author states that features will keep changing as development continues, and that compatibility with other mods and later versions depends on that progress; the project page lists the current supported versions and loaders.
Key features
Fewer steps in routine actions
Common everyday actions take fewer repeated inputs, without removing any option the player already has.
Vanilla-friendly changes
Changes are kept close to the default game, so vanilla mechanics and progression remain recognizable.
Simple, accessible features
Each addition is meant to be understood quickly, with no extra systems or settings to master before use.
Ongoing development
The feature set is still growing, and the author adds improvements over time as the project continues.

Use cases
Single-player quality of life
Players who want a smoother day-to-day experience in a single-player world can use Caldris for routine convenience changes.
Multiplayer servers
Server owners who want shared conveniences for all players can run Caldris on the server, with every client installing it too.
Who it’s for: Players and server owners who want practical convenience changes on Minecraft 26.2 with Fabric, and who accept that the mod is still in active development.
How it compares
Vanilla Helper is also a Fabric mod for 26.2, and it is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, so a server does not need it. Aries is a client-side Fabric mod for 26.1.2 – 26.2 under a custom license and is not open source. Caldris differs from both by needing the server as well as the client, and by being released under All rights reserved, which is not open source.
