Zebra's Toggle Sneak&Sprint (Fabric)
by nqme
Zebra's Toggle Sneak&Sprint turns the sneak and sprint keys into toggles on the Fabric client, with a hold threshold, a HUD and an in-game settings screen.
What it does
Holding the sneak or sprint key switches the state on, and a short press in the same manner flips it back off. The toggle behavior is modeled on the Zebra's Toggle Sneak mod for Fabric, and the Fly-Boost feature from that mod is left out. While the mod is active, the vanilla sneak and sprint toggle is disabled so the two do not conflict. The hold detection threshold can be adjusted in the config file, which sets how long a press must last before it counts as a hold.
The mod is a client-side optimization for players who prefer hands-free movement during long walks or builds. It has to run on the client only, so servers do not need it and players can join without installing it. It requires Fabric, Fabric API, Cloth Config API and Mod Menu. The code is under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later and is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are publicly linked. Builds cover 1.19 – 1.21.8, with 21 release versions published since 2025-12-14.
Key features
Toggle sneak and sprint
Sneak and sprint keys each switch on and off with a press, so the movement state holds without a held key.
Adjustable hold threshold
The time a key must be held before it counts as a hold can be changed in the config, separating taps from holds.
Customizable HUD display
The toggle state can be shown on screen, with its position chosen by the player and a choice of color-coded or text-only display.
In-game configuration screen
Settings are reachable from a configuration screen inside the game, so players do not need to edit files for common changes.

Use cases
Who it’s for: The mod suits players on Fabric who want the sneak and sprint keys to stay toggled. Servers gain nothing from it, because it changes only the client.
