Chat Toggles
by y9
Chat Toggles lets a player switch between up to nine chat prefix modes from the chat screen, with a preview of each message before it is sent.
What it does
Each chat mode is a prefix that the client attaches to outgoing messages. Before a message leaves the game, the selected mode is shown in the chat box as a preview, so the player can see how the text will look. The selected mode is applied the same way on every message until it is changed.
Settings are handled through Mod Menu, which is the place to adjust the mode list and related options. The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player who installs it sees the toggles and previews, and servers need nothing. It is published for Fabric only, with files for 1.21.10 and 1.21.11 and 1.0.0-alpha as the latest build for 1.21.11. The code is open source under the MIT License. Nine modes are supported in this version, and the author plans more for future releases.
Key features
Prefix modes
Up to nine chat prefix modes can be configured, each one attached to outgoing messages from the client.
Message preview
The selected mode appears in the chat box before a message is sent, so the result can be checked first.
Mod Menu settings
Modes and options are changed through the Mod Menu configuration screen rather than through a file.
Planned modes
The author plans to add more than nine modes in later versions of the mod.

Use cases
Role tags in chat
A player can switch between prefixes that mark a message as team, trade or private before typing it.
Who it’s for: Players who often change how they write in chat, and who want to check the result before sending. The mod is installed on the client only.
How it compares
Player Chat Filter is a client-side mod under the MIT License, with files for 1.21.11, so it covers the same side as Chat Toggles but filters messages instead of adding prefixes. Remove Chat is server-side only under CC0 1.0 Universal, with files 1.20 – 1.21.11 for Fabric and Quilt, so it changes the server rather than the player's own messages. ChatDebug is client-side only under the MIT License and is built for 1.21.5, a different version range from Chat Toggles.
