Team Tagger
by yfc
Team Tagger changes how player nametags are colored, marking teammates and enemies on screen through slash commands on the client.
What it does
Team Tagger lets a player set the colors used for team and enemy nametags. Team and enemy nametag highlighting can be switched on or off with a slash command, and nametag colors can be set with an RGB color code. Players can also add or remove usernames from a team list, and a basic prefix can be set for team entries.
Settings can be saved to and loaded from a JSON config file, so a chosen setup persists between sessions. The mod requires Fabric API. Mod Menu is optional. Team Tagger is client-side only, so only the client needs it, and it is published for Fabric on 1.20.1 as version 1.0.1. The code is released under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.
Key features
Team and enemy highlights
Nametags are separated into team and enemy highlights, which can be toggled on or off with a slash command.
Custom nametag colors
Team and enemy name colors can each be set with a slash command that takes an RGB color code.
Team list management
Usernames can be added to or removed from a player team list, and the list can be displayed on screen.
Saved configuration
Settings are stored in a JSON config, so colors, prefixes and team entries load again after a restart.

Use cases
Marking a group in multiplayer
A player who plays with a fixed group can list the group's usernames and give them a distinct color so they stand out in crowds.
Spotting opponents
Enemy names can be given their own color and highlighted separately, making opposing players easier to pick out during play.
Who it’s for: Players who want clearer team and enemy nametags on the client, on Fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. Since only the client needs the mod, servers do not have to install it.
How it compares
SoulForge Teams is also open source under the MIT License, but it is server-side required for Fabric 1.20.1, so the server must run it. Highlighted Friends is client-side only like Team Tagger, yet it targets 1.20.5 – 26.2 and is not open source. Team Tagger covers 1.20.1 alone, the same version as SoulForge Teams.
