ChestGuard
ChestGuard is an advanced chest protection and management plugin for PaperMC servers. It provides chest ownership, permissions, secure item transfers, activity tracking, real-time alerts, and protection against unauthorized interaction and destruction.
Core Features

- Lock and name single or double chests with
/chestlock <name> - Unlock protected chests with
/chestunlock [name] - Rename locked chests with
/chestrename <old name> <new name> - View detailed chest information with
/chestdetails [name] - Display live chest information through an action bar while looking at a chest

Locked chests are protected from unauthorized destruction in Creative, Survival, Adventure, and Spectator modes.
Protection includes:
- TNT explosions
- Creeper explosions
- Wither destruction
- Ender Dragon destruction
- Unauthorized hopper and minecart access
- Unauthorized adjacent chest placement
👥 Permission & Trust System
/chesttrustlist <chestname>— View trusted users/chestpermission give <player> <chestname>— Grant access/chestpermission remove <player> <chestname>— Revoke access/chestlists— List your owned chests/chestsearch <name>— Find an owned chest/lastchestplaced— Locate your last interacted chest
Permissions are designed to allow controlled access to protected storage without giving away ownership.

ChestGuard tracks inventory activity on protected chests.

- Tracks items removed or deposited
- Shows player, item, quantity, chest name, and coordinates
🔄 Secure Item Transfer
ChestGuard includes a controlled item transfer system for moving items between chests.
Select Items
/itemtake [x y z] [all|item amount]
Select items from a source chest by looking at it or using coordinates.
Examples:
/itemtake all/itemtake emerald all/itemtake diamond 10
Transfer Items
/itemtransfer [x y z]
Transfers the selected items into a target chest.
Items automatically merge with existing stacks and are inserted starting from slot 0.
When another player's locked chest is involved, the chest owner receives a private approval request with a 30-second approval window.
