ChatScope
by Enterprising
ChatScope lets players watch Minecraft chat from a web browser on a phone, tablet or second monitor while the game runs.
What it does
ChatScope runs a small web server inside the game client. A browser connected to it mirrors the chat in real time over WebSocket, with Minecraft colours, bold and italic text, and hover tooltips for item stats and entity information preserved. Each server gets its own table inside a local SQLite database, so the chat history of one server is never combined with another's.
The browser page offers a live chat view, a player list with heads, ping and game mode, and a Online and Offline tab set where Offline lists everyone seen. Clicking a player opens a profile with a rotating 3D skin and that player's logged messages, and the history view supports search and pagination. The web server can be protected with an optional password, and an empty password leaves the dashboard open.
The mod needs Fabric API. Cloth Config is bundled, so it does not need a separate install. ChatScope is client-side only, so players install it alone and servers run without it. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with 1.0.2 for 1.21.11 as the latest Fabric file, published 2026-07-05.
Key features
Live chat mirror
Chat streams to the browser as it arrives, with colours, formatting and hover tooltips kept intact.
Message filters
Patterns written as standard JavaScript regular expressions hide matching messages entirely. Invalid patterns are flagged and ignored.
Per-server chat history
A searchable, paginated log of each server's messages is kept in local SQLite storage, with export available.
Player profiles
Each player has a profile with a rotating 3D skin view and the full set of that player's logged messages.
Customisable dashboard
A settings panel lets users add, rename, reorder and toggle sections, with dark and light themes and an accessibility mode.
