MacroMenu
by Inasai
MacroMenu lets players bind chat commands to buttons in a customizable menu opened with a single key press.
What it does
Players open the MacroMenu screen with one button and then create, edit or delete buttons, each tied to a chat command. Clicking a button runs its command at once, so long or repeated commands such as teleports, game mode changes and plugin commands no longer need to be typed each time. The author describes the mod as an early release, with key bindings and theme support listed as planned additions.
The mod is built for Forge, with files for six release versions in the 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 range and 1.4 for 1.20.6 as the latest, published on 2025-07-31. Only the client needs it, and the server can run without it; a server may still install it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Command macro buttons
Each button in the menu stores a chat command, so a single click executes it without retyping.
Create, edit and delete
Buttons are added, changed and removed from inside the menu, with no config file editing needed.
Single-key menu access
The whole menu opens from one button press, keeping macros within reach during play.
Planned key bindings and themes
Key bindings and theme support are listed by the author as future features, not yet part of the mod.

Use cases
Repeated teleports
Players who return to the same spawn or base can store the teleport command on a button and run it in one click.
Game mode switching
Commands that change game mode can sit in the menu, so switching does not require typing the full command.
Plugin commands on servers
Players on servers with long plugin commands can bind them to buttons instead of repeating them in chat.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who run the same chat commands often, on single-player worlds or on servers where commands are available to the player.
How it compares
Hide Key Binding is a Forge client mod with no open source license, covering 1.12.2 – 1.20.1 and running on the client only. Keys4Macros is a client-side only Forge mod under the Apache License 2.0, with files for 1.16.1 – 1.19.2, so it does not cover 1.20.6. Fast commands is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 only and needs both client and server, while MacroMenu runs with the client alone.
