Game versions1.21.11

A client-side Fabric mod that prevents you from accidentally breaking your tools and weapons.

When an item in your main hand reaches 1 durability, NoItemBreak blocks any action that would destroy it (attacking, mining, using). A warning message is shown in your action bar.

Features

  • 🛡️ Blocks attacks, mining and item use when durability is critically low
  • ⚙️ Configurable list of protected items
  • 💾 Config persists between sessions
  • 🖥️ In-game config screen (via ModMenu, optional)
  • 💬 Commands to manage the list without leaving the game

Configuration

This mod can be configured using either:

  • ModMenu (easiest way)
  • Slash commands

Via ModMenu

Open Options → Mods → NoItemBreak → Config to manage the list of protected items.

Via commands

/noitembreak add <item_id>       — Add an item (with autocomplete)
/noitembreak remove <item_id>    — Remove an item
/noitembreak list                — Show all protected items

  "enabled": true,
  "protectedItems": [
    "minecraft:diamond_sword",
