### โœจ Features

* โšก **One-Click Sorting:** Automatically scans chests within an 8-block radius and transfers unlocked items to matching categorized containers with real-time sound and action-bar feedback.
* ๐Ÿท๏ธ **In-Game Chest Tagging & GUI:** Adds a clean, integrated text input box right above the chest interface with an upward auto-complete dropdown to keep inventory slots completely clear. Press **K** to open the advanced Category Management screen to search items, browse results, and override categories effortlessly.
* ๐ŸŽฏ **Dynamic & Flexible Matching:** Beyond preset categories, it dynamically matches chest names, item display names, and registry IDs. Naming a chest "sword" or a custom keyword routes matching items instantly.
* ๐ŸŒŒ **Cross-Dimensional Consistency:** The SmartPos system ensures Overworld, Nether, and End chests never collide or mix data—even if they share the exact same coordinates.
* ๐Ÿ”ค **Special Character Normalization:** Automatically normalizes language-specific characters (e.g., Turkish ลŸ, ฤŸ, ü, ç, ö, ฤฑ) and remains completely case-insensitive (`SWORD`, `Sword`, or `sword` all behave identically).
* ๐Ÿ”’ **Slot Locking System:** Hold **Left ALT + Left Click** on any main inventory slot to lock/unlock it. Locked slots are never transferred.
* ๐Ÿงฉ **Mod Compatibility:** Out-of-the-box support for popular mods like Create, Farmer's Delight, and Sophisticated Storage (fully compatible with custom chests, barrels, and all `IItemHandler`-compliant storage).
* ๐ŸŒ **Multi-Language Support:** Full translation support for English (`en_us`) and Turkish (`tr_tr`).
* ๐ŸŒ **100% Server & Multiplayer Ready:** Built using NeoForge's custom payload network system with instant two-way synchronization and distance security checks. Runs smoothly on Dedicated Servers, Aternos/Exaroton, and LAN.
