MaxVar reap
by maxvar
MaxVar reap adds a right-click harvest to Fabric, so a player can collect and replant crops in one action without breaking the plant.
What it does
Right-clicking a fully grown crop with a hoe-type tool harvests it and plants the seed back in the same spot. Supported crops include the common field plants and the nether and jungle ones, while unripe plants stay where they are.
Enchantments carry over: a tool enchanted with Fortune increases the number of drops, and the loot goes straight into the player's inventory when space is available. The mod is a client-side only Fabric mod, so a server does not need it, and Fabric API is required to run it. Files are published for 1.19.2, 1.19.3, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, with 1.7.1+1.20.1 for 1.20.1 as the latest build.
The author wrote it after a player asked for a Forge-era harvesting mod and found only Forge options, then studied how the SpongePowered team implemented its mixin system before building this one. The code is available publicly, and the mod is released under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features
Right-click harvest
A right-click on a mature crop collects the produce and resets the plant without any extra step.
Automatic reseeding
The seed is replanted on the same tile, so the field stays productive across repeated harvests.
Fortune support
A tool enchanted with Fortune increases the drops from a harvested crop.
Direct inventory insertion
Harvested items go straight into the player's inventory when there is room for them.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Singleplayer players and small groups who run a Fabric client and want quicker crop maintenance. Server owners do not need to install anything, since the mod runs on the client alone.
How it compares
Harvest XP is a Fabric mod for 1.20.5 – 1.21.10 that is server required with the client optional, under All rights reserved and not open source, so it targets a different version range and install side. Simple Crop Harvester is server-side only under the MIT License and not open source, covering 26.1 – 26.2. Harvest is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.19 – 1.21.5 released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it is open source, which MaxVar reap is not.
