Messenger
by tomek7667
Messenger lets a player set up chat messages and commands that the client sends on a timer, with a countdown shown in game.
What it does
Each rule pairs a message or command with an interval in minutes, and fractional intervals are accepted. While a rule is switched on, the client sends it on that schedule, and a rule can also be sent once right away. A live countdown shows the time left until the next send. Rules persist across sessions, so a set configured once stays in place after restarts.
Only the client needs Messenger, which targets Minecraft 1.21.8 and needs Fabric API. Rules can be created, edited, enabled, disabled and deleted from the in-game editor opened from the ESC menu. The author notes that a timer server plugin is required for the mod to work, so server owners should check that setup before players rely on it. The source code is public, and the project is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Timed chat messages
Rules send chat messages or commands automatically on a set interval measured in minutes.
Fractional intervals
Intervals accept fractions, so a rule can fire at a half-minute offset from a whole number of minutes.
Live countdown
A countdown on screen shows how long remains before each rule's next send.
Paged rule list
The rule list uses labels, IDs and Prev/Next pagination to keep long lists manageable.
Import and export
Rules can be exported to and imported from JSON, and an Open Folder button gives quick access to the files.

Use cases
Recurring server announcements
A player can schedule a reminder or a command to repeat on a server that supports the timer plugin.
Routine commands
Commands that a player runs often can be sent on a fixed timer without typing them by hand.
Who it’s for: Players on Minecraft 1.21.8 who want chat messages or commands sent on a schedule, and server owners who run the timer plugin that the mod requires.
How it compares

AutoText is also client-side only on Fabric, but its files cover 1.21.4 – 1.21.11 and it is not open source. Easy Command X SylvaraRP is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 under All rights reserved, and it is not open source.
