SlotMind

SlotMind is a client-side Fabric mod for intent-based inventory management. Tag slots, lock layouts, refill hotbar stacks, replace tools, sort around reserved slots, and use chest roles for restock, junk, and dump workflows.

Description

SlotMind

Your inventory, but organized on Purpose.

SlotMind is a client-side Fabric mod for players who want inventory rules, cleaner sorting, tool-aware hotbar behavior, and chest workflows without turning Minecraft into a full automation mod.

Instead of treating every slot like temporary storage, SlotMind lets you assign intent to player slots and chest slots, then automates normal inventory actions around those rules.

Open settings from Mod Menu or with /slotmind config

What SlotMind does

  • Tag player inventory slots and chest slots
  • Open a context menu directly on the hovered slot
  • Lock important slots and preserve your layout during sorting
  • Keep refillable stacks topped off
  • Switch to the right tool for mining and keep a weapon selected when combat starts
  • Replace tagged tools and weapons
  • Sort around reserved slots instead of fighting them
  • Mark chests for General, Restock, Dump, or Junk workflows
  • Show a readable slot overlay while you manage inventory

Core Features

Slot Intent

  • Tool and weapon categories with subtype support
  • Food, block, utility, memory, junk, refillable, and locked slot behaviors

Inventory Automation

  • Background hotbar refill support from your own inventory
  • Auto tool switching for targeted blocks, combat weapon preference, and optional switch-back after mining
  • Break protection with a configurable durability warning threshold

  • Intent-aware sorting that fills tagged destinations first and compacts matching stacks

Storage Workflows

Client-Side Scope

SlotMind is client-side and uses ordinary inventory interactions.

It does:

  • automate valid inventory clicks the client could already perform
  • refill hotbar stacks from your own inventory even when no inventory screen is open
  • run chest workflows only while the relevant container screen is open

It does not:

  • create server-side automation
  • interact with unopened remote containers
  • bypass anti-cheat or custom server inventory rules

Requirements

  • Fabric Loader
  • Fabric API
  • Minecraft 26.1.x
  • Java 25

Mod Menu is optional.
