Copy UUID

by Sayuki_san

Copy UUID lets a player hold a stick, right-click an entity and copy its UUID to the clipboard in one click.

FabricNeoForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 26.2

What it does

Holding the stick and right-clicking an entity copies that entity's UUID to the clipboard immediately. An action bar message then confirms the copy and shows the entity name and UUID, so the value can be pasted into commands or tools without typing it. The stick is the only item the mod adds, and it is meant for entities that are otherwise hard to identify in the world.

The mod is useful for map makers writing data execute commands that target specific entities, and for server administrators debugging entity behavior. Because it is a client-side mod, it only needs to be installed by the player doing the copying. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge across 16 release versions, 1.21 – 26.2, under the MIT License, and the source code is public on the project's repository.

Installation needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API on Fabric. Copy UUID is open source and its latest builds, dated 2026-04-15, target 26.2.

Key features

  1. One-click UUID copy

    Right-clicking an entity with the stick copies its UUID to the system clipboard instantly.

  2. Action bar confirmation

    A message in the action bar shows the entity name and UUID after each copy.

  3. Command-friendly output

    The copied UUID can be pasted straight into data execute commands that target specific entities.

  4. Simple controls

    Holding the stick and right-clicking an entity is the only interaction, with no menus or settings to learn.

Use cases

Map making

Map makers copy the UUID of an entity and paste it into command blocks or datapacks that target that entity.

Server debugging

Administrators check which entity a command affects by copying its UUID and inspecting it.

Who it’s for: Map makers who write commands and server administrators who debug entity behavior are the main audience. The mod is client-side only, so players on a server can use it without any server-side install.

Questions

Does Copy UUID require Fabric API?

Yes. On Fabric the mod needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API. The NeoForge build is published separately and does not use Fabric API.

Does the server need Copy UUID installed?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Which game versions have files?

Files cover 1.21 – 1.21.11 and the 26.1 builds, up to 26.2, with the latest Fabric and NeoForge files dated 2026-04-15.
