Mishanguc: Better Colortool
Mishanguc: Better Colortool adds a refined color tool to Minecraft Java Edition on Fabric, and it needs Mishang Urban Construction to run.
What it does
Refinement Color Tool is the central item. It is built on Mishang Urban Construction, so that library has to be installed alongside it. A recipe makes the color tool craftable in Survival Mode, so players do not need creative access to obtain it.
A command named mscolortool sets the color tool in the main hand to a chosen color. The effect is limited to the item in hand, which makes it a quick way to switch colors while building. The mod works alongside the Mishang Urban Construction add-on for the same build workflow.
Files are published for Fabric only, with builds covering 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The newest file is 1.0.3-backported for 1.21.1, released 2026-08-27, and the first release appeared on 2026-07-28. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code public.
