MCInspects
by NickyTea
With MCInspects installed, a held weapon or tool can be inspected in first person with a Counter-Strike style animation.
What it does
Holding a weapon or tool and pressing the inspect key plays a first-person animation of the item being turned and examined, modeled on the inspect feature of Counter-Strike. It is a client-side only Fabric mod, so players install it and servers do not need it. Fabric API is required and must be installed alongside it. Files are published for 1.21.4, 1.21.5 and 1.21.7, with 1.0.6 for 1.21.7 as the latest, under the MIT License and open source.
Key features
First-person inspect animation
Pressing the inspect key starts a first-person animation of the held item, in the style of Counter-Strike.
Inspect for tools and weapons
The animation applies to tools and weapons, so a sword, bow or pickaxe can be examined the same way.
Optional accessibility setting
The author notes the mod is aimed at players with undiagnosed ADHD and the setting can be left off.

How it compares
CS:GO Inspects is a Fabric client-side mod, open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.10, so its range overlaps MCInspects only partly. Fresh First Person is also client-side and open source under the Apache License 2.0, covering 1.21 – 1.21.8, and it changes the first-person view rather than adding an inspect animation.
