MineUtils
by Denuvers
MineUtils puts a set of small client-side read-outs into the game screen, from attack cooldown and arrow counts to item despawn and furnace timers.
What it does
A thin bar under the crosshair shows how charged the next hit of the held weapon is. When a bow or crossbow is drawn or loaded, a counter reports how many arrows the inventory holds. A tidy list of active potion effects, with the time left on each, sits clear of the vanilla icons so the two never collide. Dropped items display a floating countdown above them until they disappear.
The utilities are aimed at survival play, mapping and build work, and tool use. A smart auto-tool option switches to the right tool in the hotbar when a block is hit, and a hotkey copies exact X, Y and Z coordinates to the clipboard as plain text, ready for a teleport command. Monster spawners show their 16-block activation range as a highlighted ground area when looked at.
The mod is published for Fabric only, for the 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 range, and it needs Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu to run. Servers do not need it; each player installs it for their own game. The license is All rights reserved.

How it compares
Crossbow Auto Release is client-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and covers 1.19.4 – 1.20.4, so it fits a different crossbow range. Crossbow Multicharge is open source under the MIT License, works for 1.20.1 alone, and runs on client and server together. Silly's Crossbow Fix is client-side only and is not open source. MineUtils differs from all three by bundling several read-outs in one client mod for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6.
