Held Item Info
by A5b84
With Held Item Info, the item a player holds shows its enchantments and other details under its name.
What it does
The mod reads the held item and prints extra information beneath its name, such as enchantments, potion effects, the contents of containers, firework attributes, commands inside command blocks, bee counts in Bee Nests and Beehives, projectiles loaded in a crossbow, and the unbreakable tag. Each of these can be switched on or off in game through the settings, once the supporting menu and configuration library are present.
The mod is a client-side mod, so only the client needs it and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric and Quilt, with files across 46 release versions, 1.14 – 26.3. The latest file is 1.9.3 for 26.3, dated 2026-10-09. The code is under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source is open.
