Direct Name Lookup
by d.istress
Direct Name Lookup lets a player type a username into chat and get that account's past usernames as a quick link, without opening a browser.
What it does
Typing a name in chat returns a link to that person's username history, so the lookup runs inside the game and not in a separate browser window. The mod is client-side only, which means only the player installing it needs it. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric alone, with a single file for 1.21.11, released under the MIT License as open source.
