HandSwitcher
HandSwitcher lets a player move the item in the main hand to the off hand, or the reverse, with a single key press.
What it does
A single key swaps which hand holds the active item, so a tool or block can be moved to the other side at the moment it is convenient. The mod is a Fabric client mod: only the client needs it, and servers run without it. Builds are published for Fabric only, for 1.20 – 1.20.4, with version 1.1 as the latest file. Zet Corporation released it under All rights reserved, and it is not open source.
Key features
One-key hand swap
A configurable key moves the item between the main hand and the off hand in one press.
Switch at the right moment
The swap can be triggered whenever a player needs the other hand, without opening any menu.
Left or right side
Players can put their active item on either side, including the reverse of the current arrangement.

How it compares
Main hand Switch is also a client-side Fabric mod for 1.20.1 and is open source under the Apache License 2.0. Anti Left Hand is client-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and is published for 1.21.11, so it targets a different game version.
