Iris Utils
Iris Utils adds shader switching shortcuts and a fetch command for the Iris shader mod on Fabric for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4.
What it does
Arrow keys cycle through installed shader options, so players can change packs without opening the Iris menu. A dlshader command fetches a shader from Modrinth. If a shader with the same name is already present, the fetch is refused, and a shader that cannot be reached fails with an internet connection error. The author states that the project is unofficial and not affiliated with the original creators. The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on the client alone.
Key features
Arrow key shader switching
Up and down arrow keys move between shader options already installed in Iris.
Modrinth shader fetching
The dlshader command lets a player fetch a shader from Modrinth directly in the game.
Duplicate name check
A shader whose name matches one already present is not fetched again.

What the author says
This is a simple mod that adds the option to swap Iris shaders with the up and down arrow keys, and also allows the player to download a shader from modrinth with the /dlshader \ command. Since this is an Iris addon, it requires the correct versions of Iris and Sodium to be present to function
