Elytra Alert
by KAkos1220
Elytra Alert warns a player on the Fabric loader when the elytra is not equipped in the End dimension, and when an equipped elytra is running low on durability.
What it does
Elytra Alert watches the elytra worn by the player. In the End, where gliding matters most, a message appears when no elytra is equipped. A second alert fires when an equipped elytra drops toward breaking. The durability check accounts for the Unbreaking enchantment, so the warning reflects how fast the elytra is really wearing out rather than a fixed threshold.
The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player who installs it sees the alerts, and servers do not need it. Settings can be set separately for each world or server, and the Mod Menu and Cloth Config mods open a configuration screen. Fabric API is required. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for 1.21 – 26.3 with 17 release versions, the latest being 1.0 for 26.3.

Use cases
End trips
Players heading to the End can confirm an elytra is worn before leaving the main world.
Long flights
Anyone gliding for a long time gets a timely notice before the elytra breaks mid-flight.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who glide with an elytra in the End or on long flights and want a reminder before the gear fails. The mod is client-side, so it suits single-player and multiplayer clients alike.
How it compares
LowDurabilityWarning is a Fabric, client-side only mod under the MIT License, published for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, and it covers only low durability. Heads Up is another Fabric client-side mod under the MIT License, published for 1.21.11 – 26.1.2. Better Elytra Render is open source under the MIT License and reaches 1.21.4 – 26.3, but it changes how the elytra is rendered rather than warning the player.
