CopyID
CopyID lets a player hover over an item and press F8 to copy its item ID to the system clipboard, a small tool for CopyID users working with item IDs in the game's inventory interface.
What it does
Hovering the mouse pointer over an item in the inventory screen and pressing F8 places that item's ID on the system clipboard. The mod is lightweight and works from the existing storage GUI, so no command or extra screen is needed. It is aimed at data pack authors and mod developers who need item IDs for recipes, loot tables and tags.
CopyID is a NeoForge mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 only. It runs on the client alone, so servers and other players do not need it. The code is licensed under the MIT License and is open source, with a public source repository and issue tracker.
