Chefmake's Shine
by Chefmakes
Chefmake's Shine lets a player perform a Super Smash Bros.-style shine, a short downward attack that spikes opponents, after crafting and activating a single item.
What it does
The shine is obtained by crafting one activator item. Right-clicking it grants the ability, and the ability lasts until the player dies, since the state resets on death. After death the activator has to be crafted again before the shine can be used.
Once active, the shine is performed with a simple input. The mod uses sneak plus the B key, bound to R because B is already taken by another control. The move works in the same way as melee attacks, and the mod also makes the player invincible to reflecting projectiles while it is in effect.
The mod is available for Fabric only, for game version 1.21.1, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is public, but the project is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Crafted activator
One crafted item grants the shine ability when right-clicked, and the ability stays until the player dies.
Sneak-and-key input
The shine is triggered by sneaking and pressing R, since the default B key is already in use.
Projectile reflection
While the ability is active, the player is invincible to reflecting projectiles.
Wavedash combination
The author notes that pairing the shine with the Wavedash mod enables waveshine, a combined move that can finish off opponents.

Use cases
Player versus player
Players on a server can use the shine in duels, for example to finish off an opponent who is close to dying.
Single-player combat
A single-player world can use the shine against enemies that a player would otherwise avoid approaching.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who want a combat boost on Fabric for 1.21.1 and do not mind a high-risk ability that resets on death. Server owners can add it to a multiplayer world, provided every player installs it.

What the author says
After activating by rightclicking you'll now be able to do it for aslong as you are not dead, since after death, the state is reset back so you'll need to craft it again. Preforming the shine itself is quite simple; Just like in melee; sneak and press B (or in this carse it's R because B is already taken). Pair it up…
