API:

This mod has compatibility for extensibility, like a library or something.

There are two extension points.

PlacementStrategy controls how a build gets placed. The default writes everything
instantly, but a colony mod can queue the work for a builder NPC, a survival mod can consume
materials from the player's inventory, and a planning mod can place nothing at all.

SchematicCatalogue controls existing builds. The Build Tool's own library is capped
because it's stored in item data, but you can encode your own builds over the limit.

This is a fictional HutTool.
public class HutTool extends BuildToolItem {
public HutTool(Properties props) {
super(props, 0, HutTool::queueForBuilder);
}
@Override public boolean canLearn(ItemStack stack) { return false; }
@Override public SchematicCatalogue catalogue(ItemStack stack) { return MyMod.HUTS; }
}

Schematics export as vanilla structure files, readable by structure blocks and Create.

Modpacking and using as a dependency is absolutely allowed.
