ItemFlexer
by SilverAndro
ItemFlexer lets a player type flex text that shows the held item in chat, for servers that want a simple item display command.
What it does
The mod is a server-side utility built on Fabric API. A player types a flex message and the item in hand is shown in chat, with the item's name and display. Only the server needs the mod, and players join without installing anything. Quilt is also supported, and Fabric builds cover 1.15 – 1.21.11 with the latest file, 1.3.4, dated 2026-01-24.
Key features
Item display in chat
The item held in hand appears in chat alongside the message the player typed.
Typed flex messages
Any player can type a flex message, so the command is open to everyone on the server.
Server-side install
Clients need nothing extra, so players join the server without installing the mod.

What the author says
Very simple mod that allows anyone to type /flex with an item in their hand and display it to chat I've only tested on 1.16.3/4 but it may work as far back as 1.14
