Vanilla Helper
A lightweight Fabric utility mod that adds small quality-of-life improvements to make Minecraft smoother and more enjoyable.
Quick answer
Which Vanilla Helper release matches 26.2?
Vanilla Helper 0.1.0 targets 26.2 with Fabric. It must be installed on the client. Do not install it on the dedicated server. 1 required mod needs a matching file.
Where it goes
Is Vanilla Helper required on the client, server, or both?
It must be installed on the client. Do not install it on the dedicated server.
This file is marked client-only.
What else does Vanilla Helper 0.1.0 need?
0.1.0 on 26.2. Every mod below is checked against that same setup.
Install Fabric API first, but 1 required mod has no matching file for this setup. Do not mix loader builds to force a match.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Vanilla Helper add?
🧰 Vanilla Helper
Quality-of-life helpers for vanilla Minecraft — fair-play, client-side only, compatible with any server.
Vanilla Helper adds the small conveniences vanilla always needed, without ever giving you an unfair advantage. Everything runs on your client: install it, join any vanilla or modded server, and it just works. Every feature can be toggled and fine-tuned individually from an in-game settings screen (default key: V).
✨ Features
🔍 Container search — a search bar above every container; non-matching items are dimmed (or matches highlighted). Searches names, IDs, tooltips (enchantments, potions) and even inside closed shulker boxes and bundles. Ctrl+F to focus.
📊 Mini-HUD — coordinates, facing, biome, FPS and an in-game clock. Pick the corner, reorder the lines, choose from 9 colors.
🛡️ Protections — durability alerts, nearly-broken tool protection, double-press drop confirmation (with your own custom item list), and misclick protection for villagers, iron golems and named/tamed animals. Sneak to bypass any of them.
🔭 Zoom — hold C to zoom in (adjustable factor).
⏱️ Item despawn timer — color-coded countdown above dropped items before they despawn.
💀 Death coordinates — your death spot posted in chat on respawn, plus a warning before your items despawn.
📋 Copy coordinates — F6 copies your position to the clipboard (plain or as a /tp command).
🔢 Item counter — tooltips show how many of an item you own across your inventory and the open container.
⚖️ Fair play by design
The settings screen groups features into two categories:
- Fair play — everywhere: honest helpers, fine on any server
- Singleplayer only: features that would be unfair in multiplayer (exact phantom timer, weather forecast…) live here and are automatically disabled when you join a server — whatever the config says
🗺️ Planned
One-click chest sorting, quick-stack to containers, ModMenu integration, and more.
📦 Requirements
- Fabric Loader + Fabric API
- Client-side only — nothing to install on the server
