Ender Chested
With Ender Chested installed, a horse can carry an Ender Chest and open it while riding or standing nearby.
What it does
Ender Chested lets a horse be equipped with an Ender Chest, so the player reaches the same shared storage that a standard Ender Chest provides. The chest is rendered on the horse itself, which lets a player see at a glance which horses carry storage. Modded horses are covered as well, so custom horse types from other mods can receive the chest.
The mod is meant for survival and multiplayer play, where horses are a common means of travel and a portable inventory is useful on the road. Players hold Shift and right-click a horse to reach the chest, and the mod's own horse interaction is set up so custom horse GUIs from other mods are not blocked.
Installation needs Forge or NeoForge. Both the server and every player need the mod, since it runs on client and server. Ender Chested is released under All rights reserved, and its source code and issue tracker are publicly linked, though the license does not make it open source. Files cover 1.19.4, 1.20.1, 1.21.8, 1.21.11 and 26.1.2.

Chest rendered on the horse
The chest is drawn on the horse model, so equipped horses are simple to tell apart in a stable or on the road.
