Pickaxe Ability Notification for Hypixel Skyblock
by felixparey
Pickaxe Ability Notification for Hypixel Skyblock shows an on-screen message when a mining pickaxe ability is ready to use, so players do not have to keep checking cooldowns by hand.
What it does
The mod follows the special abilities of a held pickaxe, such as Pickobulus, Maniac Miner and Sheer Force, and sends an alert the moment each one becomes available. Players who are focused on mining can keep their attention on the block in front of them and still activate abilities on time, instead of watching a timer.
The notification text and its color can be changed in the settings, with choices such as aqua, light purple, gold and dark green. Once configured, the mod handles the tracking and alerts on its own. It runs on the client only, so a server does not need to install it, and it is published for Fabric alone.
Installation covers Minecraft 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11. The latest file, 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, was published on 2025-12-28, the same day as the first release. The code is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Tracking without manual checks
The mod keeps track of the pickaxe's special mining abilities, so players do not need to watch cooldowns themselves.
