Runic Tome

[0.2.1] — 2026-06-18

A correctness release that stops the keyword catch-all from absorbing functional gear. The catch-all matches any item whose registry path contains a documentation keyword, which wrongly swallowed spellbooks (e.g. Apprentice's Codex's "Isekai Travel Guidebook", an Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks spellbook) and parallel collection containers (RPG Lore's "Lore Codex").

Fixed

• Spellbooks are never absorbed. Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks gear is now detected structurally — any item that extends io.redspace.ironsspellbooks.item.SpellBook or is a spell container (ISpellContainer.isSpellContainer) is excluded, covering spellbooks, scrolls, and spell-imbued curios. Because detection is by class/capability rather than namespace, this also covers every Iron's Spellbooks addon (Apprentice's Codex, GTBC's Spellbooks, Monsters & Spellbooks, …) automatically — no per-mod blocklist entry needed. Detection is reflective, so there is still no compile-time dependency on Iron's Spellbooks.
• RPG Lore left to its own system. rpglore is now blocklisted, so the Runic Tome no longer absorbs the Lore Codex (RPG Lore's own soul-bound collection container) or RPG Lore's lore books, avoiding two collection systems fighting over the same items.

Added

• Global "never absorb" exclusion layer. AdapterRegistry now checks a set of exclusion predicates before any adapter runs, so an excluded item is never identified as a book regardless of which adapter (heuristic, Patchouli, config, IMC) would otherwise match it.
• Tag-based blocklist. A new bookBlocklistTags config (default ["runictome:absorb_blocklist"]) excludes any item carrying a listed item tag. The shipped #runictome:absorb_blocklist tag is empty and append-friendly — modpacks, servers, and other mods can add functional items to it to exclude them without knowing exact item IDs or touching config.

Config

• bookBlocklistTags (default runictome:absorb_blocklist) — item tags whose members are never absorbed by any adapter.
• bookBlocklistMods default now also includes rpglore.
