Command Logger
by 4youk4o
Command Logger records every command that players run on a Forge server, sending each entry to the server console in real time.
What it does
Each command typed by a player is written to the server console as it runs. Command Logger also lets administrators keep some commands out of the log, through personal lists, global hidden lists and group settings. The stated aim is transparency and accountability, so staff and the community can check which commands were logged publicly.
Separate permissions cover players, moderators and operators. A stealth mode lets moderators and operators act without their commands appearing in the log. Command groups can be managed together, which makes configuration quicker on larger servers.
Installation is needed only on the server: players join without installing anything. The mod is built for Forge and has files for Minecraft 1.20.1, the only game version it supports. The latest Forge file is 1.1.0, published on 2026-07-01, and the mod is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features

How it compares
Block Logger is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and it is client-side only, so it does not run on a server. ISIA is a Fabric mod for 1.20.2 – 1.20.4, open source under the MIT License and server-side only, so it cannot be used on Forge. PlayerLogger is a server-side Forge mod for 1.20 – 1.21 under All rights reserved, which covers a wider range of versions than Command Logger.
