Skip The End
by Toastberries
Skip The End lets a portal trip to the End send the player back to the overworld spawn point instead of the usual route through the End.
What it does
The mod turns off access to the End through a gamerule named skipTheEnd, which is true by default. With it on, the End portal route is replaced: players return to their spawn point, and the rest of the game keeps the same logic as vanilla when switching worlds. The mod works in singleplayer as well, since it runs entirely on the server side.
The gamerule can be set back to false to restore vanilla behaviour, and the only visible difference while it is on is that the end credits do not roll unless a player is traveling to the End. Commands still reach the End for anyone who needs it, so administrators keep their options. Fabric API is required to run the mod, and Skip The End is open source under the MIT License, with files published for Fabric across 17 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3.
Key features
End access gamerule
A single gamerule, skipTheEnd, switches End access off while leaving the rest of the game unchanged.
Spawn point return
Players who use a portal to reach the End are sent to their spawn point and do not enter the End.
Vanilla behaviour option
Setting the gamerule to false keeps full vanilla behaviour, which suits technical players who want it intact.
Credits only on End travel
The end credits do not roll unless a player is traveling to the End.

Use cases
Servers without an End
Server owners who want to keep players in the overworld can disable End access with one gamerule, without editing game files.
Singleplayer worlds
The mod runs on the server side alone, so a singleplayer world can use it without any client installation.
Who it’s for: Server owners and singleplayer players who want the End closed off while keeping the rest of the game as it is.
