Restricted Crafting
by NikitaCartes
With Restricted Crafting on a server, admins decide which players can craft a given item, recipe or crafter output, based on LuckPerms permissions.
What it does
Restricted Crafting is a server-side mod that blocks crafting according to LuckPerms permissions. Two approaches are available: a permission can deny a specific item's crafting, or it can deny one recipe. An example permission stops players from crafting iron ingot nuggets, while other recipes that produce the same item remain craftable. Restrictions can also be set on a crafter block so its output is held back.
LuckPerms is required, and it has to be installed next to the mod. The mod is published for Fabric and NeoForge across 17 release versions 1.21 – 26.3, and it is open source under the MIT License. Because it only runs on the server, players join without installing anything.
Key features
Permission-based item restrictions
Crafting of an item is denied to a player or group through a LuckPerms node, set on the server.
Recipe-level restrictions
A single recipe can be denied while other recipes producing the same item stay available to the same player.
Crafter restrictions
A permission node can deny the crafter block, and the default group can be set so the block cannot craft at all.
Recipe ID lookup
A dump command lists recipe identifiers, so admins can find the exact recipe to restrict.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who run survival or creative servers and want to keep certain crafting recipes or items within specific player ranks or groups, using the permission system they already manage with LuckPerms.
How it compares
Configure Use Permissions is also a Fabric server mod under the MIT License, but it covers block and item use rather than crafting, and its files are published only for 26.1.2. Gate Keep is server-side on Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.21.1 – 1.21.10, and it is released under All rights reserved, so its code is not open source.
