Inventory Buttons
Inventory Buttons brings customizable quick-command buttons to the inventory screen, a feature carried over from a earlier Minecraft modification for modern Minecraft versions.
What it does
Players place buttons in their inventory screen, and each button runs a chosen command when clicked. An editor mode lets the player drag buttons to new positions and change their settings, and profiles store separate button layouts that can be switched between.
The mod is a Fabric port of the Inventory Buttons feature from an earlier project by its original contributors. It is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and the server can stay vanilla or run any other setup. Fabric API is required. Files target 1.21.5 – 26.2 across six release versions, with 26.2-v1.2.3 as the latest file for 26.2, released 2026-09-07.
The source is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is published with a public issue tracker. The author notes that the mod is a derivative work of the original project and that its textures and design concepts belong to that project's contributors.

Use cases
Quick commands from the inventory
A player who runs the same commands often can put them on buttons and trigger them without typing.
Switching between playstyles
Separate profiles let a player keep one layout for skyblock play and another for building or exploring.
Who it’s for: Players who open the inventory often and want frequent commands within reach. The mod suits single-player and multiplayer clients on Fabric, where the player alone installs it.
