Tooltip Tweaks
by Penumbra
Tooltips in Tweaks reshape item descriptions with durability bars, repair costs, clock time and nutrition details, and Tooltip Tweaks is a Fabric mod that does this on the client.
What it does
Tooltip Tweaks expands the hover text of many items. It shows extra information about tools, food and other items, including durability with an adjustable text color and digit count. The durability display can show the remaining durability at 25% lower than the usual value, and the repair cost appears in the relevant menus along with the number of times an item has been repaired. Food tooltips list nutrition with a layout meant to be easier to read.
Crossbow and tipped arrow tooltip colors have been updated, and the enchantment list uses a revised layout. Time and day number are displayed under the clock. Default settings were chosen to suit most players, and a set of options is available for those who want more control over which lines appear.
Installation needs Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL). The mod is licensed under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code and issue tracker public. Files target Fabric only, across 13 release versions, with builds covering 1.18.2 – 26.2.

How it compares
ToolDurabilityHUD is client-side only and published for 26.2 under the MIT License, showing durability as a HUD element rather than in tooltips. Yet Another Durability Tooltip is client-side only, published for 26.1.1 – 26.2, and is not open source, under All rights reserved. Better Tooltips+ is client-side only for 1.21.11 and is not open source. Tooltip Tweaks covers a wider range of items than the durability-only options.
