About this project
What does Smart Filter add?
📦 Smart Filter The ultimate inventory management utility for organized adventurers.

Tired of your inventory filling up with cobblestone, dirt, seeds, and junk while mining or farming? Smart Filter is a lightweight, high-performance utility mod for NeoForge 1.21.1 that gives you full control over what items you pick up.
With the Smart Filter item, you decide exactly what enters your inventory — no more manual cleanup.
✨ FEATURES
Visual GUI Interface Clean and intuitive Simple Chest–style interface with a 9-slot filter bar.
Ghost Slot System Configure your filter without consuming items. Click an item into the GUI and the filter remembers it — the item stays in your hand.
Whitelist & Blacklist Modes Instantly switch between: • Whitelist (Green): pick up ONLY selected items • Blacklist (Red): pick up EVERYTHING except selected items
High Performance & Lightweight Built using Minecraft 1.21 Data Components and NeoForge TriState logic. Zero lag, even in large modpacks.
Multiple Filters Support Carry multiple Smart Filters at once: • One for mining • One for farming • One for building All active simultaneously.
Duplicate Protection The filter automatically prevents duplicate entries and keeps everything organized.
🎮 HOW TO USE
Opening & Configuring:
- Hold the Smart Filter and Right-Click while standing.
- Add items: Click an item into one of the 9 slots.
- Remove items: Click the slot with an empty hand.
- Items are registered visually only — nothing is consumed.
Switching Modes:
- Hold the filter and Shift + Right-Click.
- Whitelist Mode: pick up ONLY listed items.
- Blacklist Mode: pick up everything EXCEPT listed items.
Automatic Filtering:
- Keep the Smart Filter anywhere in your inventory.

💡 PRO TIP
You can quick-configure items directly in the world: Hold the filter and Shift + Right-Click on a block to add or remove it from the filter instantly — no GUI needed.
