Totem and Shield Switcher
by Pathdos
Totem and Shield Switcher lets players swap a totem of undying or a shield into the offhand slot with a single key press, without opening the inventory.
What it does
Holding a totem or a shield in the offhand usually means opening the inventory and moving items by hand. This mod binds a key that toggles the offhand between a totem and a shield, so the swap happens during play. It is a client-side only mod: only the player's game needs it, and a server can run without it. Fabric API is required, and files are published for Fabric across 15 release versions, 1.19.4 – 1.21.8, released under All rights reserved rather than as open source.

Totem and shield toggle
The switch alternates between the two offhand items, so either one can be held ready in combat.
No inventory screen needed
The swap works during play, so a player does not have to pause to rearrange items.
