Where Did I Put That
by kevin_802eu
Where Did I Put That keeps track of containers the player has filled, so a lost item can be found again from a search screen with a holographic marker in the world.
What it does
The mod watches chests, barrels, shulker boxes and ender chests as the player opens them, and remembers what is inside each one. A search browser lists every stored item with its live count and location. Selecting a result places an in-world waypoint that marks the nearest matching stack, and the hotbar and inventory highlight it as well. Shulker boxes are read one level deep, so a stack nested inside a portable box still shows up with its box. Ender chest support adds a badge that shows when the held item is already stored in the player's ender chest.
A shopping list combines the tracked containers with the current inventory, so a player can see how much of an item is still needed. Entries can be given free-form tags, and filter chips narrow the browser by tag. An integrity sweep marks stale entries whose container has gone silent, so outdated records can be checked. The mod is installed only on the client, and it runs on a vanilla server or Realm without any server-side plugin or permission. Fabric API is required.

Shopping list

Shulker / Ender Chest tooltip is client-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and supports both Fabric and NeoForge across 1.21.7 – 26.3.
