GhostReplay
by Flakye
GhostReplay is a client-side macro recorder for Fabric that captures exact keyboard and mouse inputs and replays them later.
What it does
GhostReplay records a sequence of keyboard and mouse inputs and plays the same sequence back later with high precision. Recording covers player movement, camera movement, sprinting and sneaking, as well as block placement and destruction. The author notes that some movement recording still shows glitches and that a fix is planned, so replays may not match the original exactly in every case.
Replays can also cover actions performed inside GUI screens, such as crafting tables, inventories and furnaces. Because the mod is client-side only, only the player's own client needs it installed, and servers can run without it. The mod is released under CC0 1.0 Universal and is not open source. Builds exist for 1.21.4 and 1.21.5, with 1.1.1-21.5 for 1.21.5 as the latest Fabric file, and it requires no other mod.

Use cases
Repeating crafting sequences
A player can record a series of crafting or inventory steps in a GUI and replay them without repeating the clicks by hand.
Repeating building tasks
Block placement and destruction can be captured and replayed for repetitive building work.
Who it’s for: Players who want to automate repeated keyboard, mouse and GUI actions on their own client. Because the mod is client-side only, it affects the single player's game and needs nothing on the server.
