Description
About
Mine and build without manually switching tools for every block.
Auto Tool Switcher is a lightweight quality-of-life add-on for Minecraft Bedrock. When you start breaking a supported block, it checks your hotbar and automatically selects the best matching tool available.
Features
- Automatic tool switching — selects an appropriate tool when you start mining a supported block.
- Broad block support — recognizes stone and ores, concrete, redstone components, wooden building blocks and workstations, dirt and sand, leaves, wool, vines, cobwebs, and many other vanilla blocks.
- Hotbar-only selection — never rearranges or pulls items from your main inventory.
- Smart tool ranking — considers tool material, Efficiency enchantment level, and remaining durability.
- Last-use protection — avoids automatically selecting a damageable tool with only one use remaining.
- Drop-conscious choices — uses hoes for leaves instead of automatically forcing shears and changing normal leaf drops.
- Multiplayer friendly — evaluates each player's hotbar independently.
- Lightweight — no menus, commands, recipes, custom items, or recurring world scans.
How to use
- Import the
.mcaddonfile into Minecraft Bedrock. - Activate the Auto Tool Switcher Behavior Pack for your world.

Notes
- Only tools already placed in the hotbar can be selected.

- Higher-tier tools are preferred, with Efficiency and remaining durability used to choose between similar options.
- Nearly broken tools with one remaining use are skipped.
- No experimental toggles are required.
