No Caps Lock
by herobane
No Caps Lock stops the Caps Lock key from triggering in Minecraft, so a stray press during play has no effect on the game.
What it does
The mod blocks the Caps Lock key only for Minecraft's keybinds. Pressing Caps Lock while in the game does not send a second Caps Lock signal to the game, so the key can be left on for typing in other windows without affecting play. A screen-based configuration lets the player choose how it behaves.
The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player's installation needs it; servers do not have to install it. It is built for Fabric and is open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.11 and 1.21.11-2.1.0 as the latest build.
Key features
Caps Lock ignored in game
Caps Lock presses are ignored by Minecraft keybinds, so typing or holding the key does not disturb movement or actions.
Instant off mode
An instant off mode turns Caps Lock off right after it is pressed, so the key state is restored at once.
Gameplay-only mode
A gameplay-only mode limits the change to game input, leaving other applications untouched.

How it compares
MacOS Caps Lock Fix is a Fabric mod for 1.14 – 26.1.2 under the MIT License, but it is not open source. Max Enchant X is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that runs on both client and server, so it is unrelated to caps lock handling.

What the author says
Specifically, the mod sends a second Caps Lock behind the scenes, either instantly or when no longer on the main Minecraft screen (based on configuration) - but doesn't send the second caps lock to the game Makes it so you can freely use caps lock without worrying about having to turn it back off when trying to type
