  • Configurable Blacklist ⚙️

    • Easy-to-edit JSON configuration file to manage blacklisted mod names and hashes.
  • Automatic Mod List Export 📋

    • Exports the server's mod list to modlist.md on server startup.
  • Instant Kick Protection 🛡️

    • Players with blacklisted mods or resource packs are immediately disconnected with a clear message.
