Don't Unsneak
by AAirCrafter
Don't Unsneak keeps the player crouching after the sneak key is released, so inventory and block screens do not open by accident.
What it does
Holding the sneak key while right-clicking a crafting table, chest or similar block normally opens its screen, and releasing sneak early can trigger the same interaction. This mod stops the unsneak step from firing those screens, which some players found caused openings they did not intend. Only the client needs it, and the mod can be disabled in game when the behavior is wanted again.
Installation is limited to Fabric. Files are published for seven release versions, 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, and the latest build is 1 for 1.21.11, released on 2026-09-02. The author notes that the intended use is client-side and that it may be considered unfair on some multiplayer servers, so server owners may want to check before players join with it.
