CuGO
by Nullcoil
CuGO reworks the Copper Golem so it can remember and sort storage across a base, and it is a Fabric mod for client and server.
What it does
CuGO changes how Copper Golems behave around chests. A golem keeps an internal map of the containers it has found and checks the chest it last used first on its next cycle. Chests can be marked as a home, and the golem prefers that chest unless it has reason to believe an item is stored somewhere else. Matching items are routed to a chest that already holds the same item, and empty chests are used when no match exists. Copper Chests, Barrels and Shulker Boxes can each be configured, and trapped chests are handled more carefully when wired to redstone.
The mod also adds new movement and safety behavior. A golem that is hit runs directly away from the threat and only calms down after the threat is dead or gone, with a check for a safe distance of 16 blocks. Walking across Redstone Blocks gives the golem speed, and statues can be reactivated into a new golem. Two settings are available: one shows debug messages in the console, and one keeps the original statue's NBT data when a golem is rebuilt. Each golem's battery can also be set to true. CuGO requires Fabric API. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
Key features
Remembered storage
Golems keep a near-infinite memory of containers and check recently used chests before searching elsewhere.
Home chests
A chest can be set as a home, and the golem returns there first unless it knows an item is stored elsewhere.
Matching and empty chests
Items go to chests that already hold the same item, and empty chests take the rest when no match exists.
Configurable containers
Copper Chests, Barrels and Shulker Boxes can each be configured, and trapped chests are treated with extra care.
Threat response
A hit golem flees the attacker and stays alert until the threat is dead or 16 blocks away.

What the author says
## Copper Golem Overcomplication Trust me it's relatively simple to understand! In this mod, the Copper Golems get a massive revamp. It has near-infinite memory, reconfigurable almost everything, and a couple new behaviors to make the lil guy a bit more interactive.
