Quick answer
Which HexParse release should I use?
hexParse-forge-1.20.1-1.11.2.jar targets 1.20.1 with Forge. The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both. All 11 required mods have matching files.
Where it goes
Is HexParse required on the client, server, or both?
The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.
The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.
What else does hexParse-forge-1.20.1-1.11.2.jar need?
hexParse-forge-1.20.1-1.11.2.jar. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Hex Casting, Caelus API, Patchouli, Inline and 7 more first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup. 14 come through another mod in the chain.
14 extra mods were pulled in by other dependencies. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

/hexParse <code string> [rename]: parse input code into supported held item; optionalrenameargument to rename the item./hexParse read: read handheld item's iota, parse into code and show in chat window; the result will be copied when clicked./hexParse read_signatures: same asread, but ignores all known pattern IDs and outputs all as angle signatures./hexParse clipboard [rename]: read client clipboard text and parse into supported held item; optionalrenameargument to rename the item./hexParse clipboard_angles [rename]: same asclipboard, but only accept patterns input with raw angle string like"wedsaq"./hexParse clipboard_hexpattern [rename]: (experimental) same asclipboard, but accepts.hexpatternformat; warning: only partial features supported./hexParse share: (experimental) same asreadbut broadcasts iota's raw content and click-copy-able parsed code to every player in the server./hexParse read_hexbug: same asreadbut translates the result to the format used by discord HexBug's/patterns hexcommand. note: non-pattern constants and some old registry names still need to be handled manually/hexParse mind_stack ...: read/write iota from player's mind (staff casting VM)... peek: read the last iota inside mind stack; getsnullif stack is empty... push <code>: parse code and push into mind stack... push_clipboard: same as above, but code comes from clipboard
/hexParse property ...: (Hexcellularinterop) get/set data for PropertyIota; used property names all force-added leading_for security reason... read <propName>: read and parse from certain property... write <propName> <code>: write code into certain property... clipboard <propName>: same as above, but code comes from clipboard

OP-Only Commands
/hexParse unlock_great (unlockAll|lockAll|unlock <pattern id>|lock <pattern id>): controls great pattern unlocking process of current world by locking/unlocking all at once, or a single great pattern each execution.

Introduction also written in HexParse Patterns section inside the book.
Misc. Features
- At each pattern's page, press
Shiftto display the pattern's registry ID
New Iota: CommentIota
