ItemTrail
by sawiq_
ItemTrail keeps a local record of item movements that the Minecraft client observes, so a player can look up where a stack was last seen.
What it does
The history covers moves, swaps, splits, merges, crafting results, pickups, drops and equipping, plus quantity changes, in singleplayer worlds and on multiplayer servers. Each entry carries a confidence label that separates direct observations from inferred or ambiguous events, and container coordinates help tie a screen to the block that was opened.
The trail only reflects what the client saw. It cannot open unopened containers or rebuild events that happened while the player was offline, and it is not an authoritative log kept by the server. Corrections arriving from the server can leave visually identical items with inferred or ambiguous results, so the record works as personal evidence rather than proof of another player's actions.
ItemTrail is a client-only Fabric mod, so servers run without it and players install it alone. It is published for Fabric across 16 release versions, 1.21 – 26.2, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

ItemTrail is a client-side Fabric mod that keeps a local history of item movements observed by your Minecraft client. It helps you remember where an item was last seen, how a stack was split or merged, and where a tracked item moved next. ItemTrail only knows what the client has actually observed. It cannot inspect…
