Suggestion Provider Fabric
by Safro
Suggestion Provider Fabric changes how command auto-completion lists resource locations, so mod namespaces are suggested alongside item and block names.
What it does
Typing a command that takes a resource location, such as a seed or an item name, now offers the namespace or mod ID as a suggestion. A player can begin typing the name of an oak seed or any other item and find it without knowing which mod added it. The change applies to any registry that uses resource locations, including blocks, biomes and custom entries added by other mods.
Suggestion Provider Fabric brings the Fabric version of the earlier Suggestion Provider Fix mod, and the author points to that original. It is a small change, but players who use commands often are likely to save time with it. Since the suggestions are built on the client, the environment is client-side only, so a dedicated server can run without it, though the author advises installing it on the server and client alike, and keeping the mod list the same on both.
Key features
Namespace suggestions
Resource locations are completed with their mod namespace, so the namespace is offered as a suggestion.
Names without a namespace
Items can be found by typing their plain name, with no need to type the mod ID first.
Support across registries
Blocks, biomes and custom registry entries from other mods all receive the same auto-completion.
Port of an existing fix
The mod ports the Suggestion Provider Fix mod to Fabric, and the original project is linked from its page.

What the author says
A minor change to Minecraft's suggestion provider so that it auto-completes resource locations for all mod namespaces. Whilst this is a very tiny change, if you use commands a lot in modded it is likely to save you a lot of time.
