SleepBuff
by KingKurbit
SleepBuff, a Fabric mod, gives players a short temporary status effect each time they wake up in a bed.
What it does
Vanilla sleep skips the night and offers nothing once the player wakes. SleepBuff keeps that behavior and adds a brief positive status effect on waking, so resting becomes a small reward rather than only a time skip. The bonus lasts a short time and then ends, and the player keeps playing as usual.
The mod is intentionally minimal. It does not add fatigue, stamina or survival overhauls, and it does not change world generation, entities, items or core systems. Beds work exactly as normal, and sleeping is never required. Players who skip sleep are unaffected, and the mod sits alongside other gameplay mods without replacing them. It hooks the player wake-up event through mixins, so conflicts are unlikely unless another mod directly changes sleep or wake-up logic.
The build is for Minecraft 1.21.11 only and requires Fabric Loader and Fabric API. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source is public.
Key features
Wake-up status effect
Waking in a bed grants a temporary positive status effect that wears off after a short period.
Vanilla sleep preserved
Night skipping and bed behavior stay as they are, with the buff added on top of normal sleep.
Optional rest incentive
The bonus gives a small reason to rest, but players who never sleep lose nothing.
Self-contained balance
The buff is the only change to sleep, leaving other systems in the game untouched.

Use cases
Rewarding rest on a server
Server owners who want a small benefit for sleeping can run SleepBuff without asking players to install anything.
Pairing with other gameplay mods
Because the change is limited to wake-up, it can be added to a modpack that already changes other systems.
Who it’s for: Server owners and modpack builders who want a small, temporary reward for sleeping in beds, without fatigue or survival systems.
How it compares
Single Sleep Mod is open source under the MIT License, built for 1.21.8 and server required with the client optional, so it targets a single version. Sleep Tweaks covers 1.21 – 1.21.11 under the MIT License, and either side can run it without the other. Sleep Reminder is client-side only and covers 1.21.4 – 1.21.11, so it changes only what each player sees.
