Exotico
by LootingVI
Exotico is a Fabric client-side library for Hypixel SkyBlock players that scans the lobby for exotic armor and highlights it.
What it does
Each player in the current lobby is checked as it loads, and any exotic armor set is recognized right away. Matching pieces gain color-coded borders in inventories, chests and trading menus, so a rare item stands out without being opened to check it. Tooltips show the exact hex code, the variant name such as Fairy or Glitched, and the description color.
The mod is aimed at Hypixel SkyBlock players who collect or track rare armor. Its filter separates official Hypixel dyes, such as Chocolate Dye, from true exotic colors, so only genuine exotics are flagged. A settings screen, reached through the exotico settings command, covers highlighting options, webhooks and auto-messaging.
Exotico has no dependencies beyond Fabric and runs on the 1.21.11 game version only. It is client-side only, so servers and other players do not need it. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved, and the source code is public for reading.

How it compares
HyDye is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21 – 26.3 with All rights reserved licensing, so it covers a wider range of versions than Exotico. Skyblock Itemtracker is also Fabric and client-side only, released under the MIT License for 1.21.11 – 26.1, and it is not open source. Exotic Matter Library is a Fabric library for 1.18.1 – 1.19.2 that runs on client and server under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so it targets older versions.
