GuiMod
by OrangeFaHTA
GuiMod lets server admins build chest-style menus in the game world, where each slot can run a command when a player clicks it.
What it does
Menus are defined through commands and stored as virtual GUIs in a local world, so no physical chests or blocks need to be placed. An admin places items into slots, assigns a command to each slot, and attaches the menu to an item through its NBT. Right-clicking that item then opens the menu for the player. An item editor uses chat prompts to set the type of each slot and the command it triggers.
Three chest appearances are available: the standard 27-slot chest, the double 54-slot chest and the ender chest look. Titles accept full color codes. Take-item slots hand the clicked item to the player's inventory rather than running a command.
GuiMod is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21 – 1.21.8, with nine release versions, and the latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.21.8. It runs on the client only, so players need it and servers do not. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source. The commands that build menus require operator permission level 2, and Fabric API is required.
Key features
Virtual chest menus
Menus are virtual GUIs kept in a local world, so they need no real chest blocks in the world.
Command-triggering slots
Each slot can run a command when clicked, which lets menus drive warps, kits and other actions.
Item-attached menus
A menu is linked to an item through NBT, and right-clicking that item opens it.
Take-item slots
A slot can hand the item to the player's inventory instead of running a command.
Three chest styles
Standard 27-slot, double 54-slot and ender chest appearances are available, with full color codes in titles.

How it compares
InventoryInspect is a server-side only Fabric mod for 1.21.11, under All rights reserved and not open source, so it differs from GuiMod in environment and version. IoTcraft is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 under the MIT License, so it covers an older range and a different purpose. Double Ender Chest is server-side only on Fabric for 1.21 – 1.21.11 under a custom license, which makes it a server-side chest tool rather than a command menu system.
