Nocaps
by itzslcs
Nocaps stops players' command names from being capitalized, so a stray Shift or Caps Lock keypress no longer makes a command fail silently on the server.
What it does
Nocaps is a Fabric client mod that forces the command name to lowercase before the message is sent. Arguments are left untouched, so player names, coordinates and other typed values arrive exactly as they were entered. Because only the client changes the message, the mod runs alone and the server does not need it.
The mod targets players who type commands often and have run into stray capital letters, such as a kit command typed as K1 that silently does nothing. It requires Fabric API and Fabric Loader 0.18.1 or newer, and it is published for 1.21 – 26.3 with 17 release versions, the latest being 1.0.1 for 26.3 from 2026-09-29. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Lowercase command names
The command name is lowercased automatically before it leaves the client, so the server receives the expected form.
Arguments left as typed
Player names, coordinates and other arguments are not altered and are sent exactly as typed.
Command capitalization disabled
Capitalization of commands is turned off, which removes the failure mode caused by a stray Caps Lock or autocorrect.
Configurable command list
A config setting lets the user choose which commands the lowercasing applies to, with options to learn, install and forget entries.

Ever fat-fingered /K1 with a capital letter and gotten no kit? NoCaps forces every command name you send to lowercase before it reaches the server — no more silent failures from stray caps lock or autocorrect.
