[Unreleased]

[0.4.0-alpha] - 2026-07-04

Added

• NeoForge support (1.21.10): full feature parity with Fabric - Sort, Settings, Restock, Quick Stack, the "I" inventory-sort button/hotkey, and shulker box support all work identically. Built as a new neoforge/ Gradle module via Architectury Loom, implemented directly against NeoForge's own networking, event, and keybind APIs. Manually verified in-game on both platforms.

Fixed

• Inventory sort ("I" button/hotkey) no longer reorders the hotbar - only the 27 main storage slots get sorted now, on both Fabric and NeoForge. Reordering the hotbar mid-use was jarring (e.g. your currently-held tool could jump to a different slot).

[0.3.1-alpha] - 2026-07-04

Fixed

• Corrected the "I" (inventory sort) button's vertical position on shulker box screens - it was off by a pixel relative to chest-type containers due to ShulkerBoxScreen adjusting imageHeight after the base class had already computed the label position from it.

Changed

• Shrunk the button row from 12x12 to 10x10 and reordered it to read left-to-right as S, Q, R, G.

[0.3.0-alpha] - 2026-07-03

Added

• Shulker box support: Sort, Settings, Restock, and Quick Stack all now work on placed shulker boxes, not just chest-type containers.

Changed

• Generalized how the mod finds a menu's backing Container: ShulkerBoxMenu has no public getter for it (unlike ChestMenu), so MenuContainers reads it off the menu's own slot list instead - a technique that works for any vanilla container-backed menu, not just the two handled today, so adding more container types later shouldn't need new per-type plumbing.

[0.2.0-alpha] - 2026-07-03

First post-MVP feature release: Restock and Quick Stack.

Added

• Restock ("R" button): tops up the player's existing partial stacks from the open container - never creates a new stack in an empty inventory slot.
• Quick Stack ("Q" button): moves everything in the player's inventory that the open container already contains into it, filling existing stacks first and then the container's empty slots.
• New core.transfer.TransferEngine, tested independently of Minecraft (unit tests) and against real containers/players (GameTest), including confirming neither operation can ever touch equipped armor/offhand.

[0.1.1-alpha] - 2026-07-03

No functional changes from 0.1.0-alpha. Republished to activate Modrinth and CurseForge publishing in the release workflow, now that both projects exist.

[0.1.0-alpha] - 2026-07-03

First public alpha. Chest-type and player inventory sorting work end to end; config/settings and shulker box support are still in progress.

Added

• Core sort engine: merges partial stacks (capped at each item's max stack size) and sorts deterministically via a configurable order (mod ID / item ID / count / display name).
• Sort button ("S") on chest-type containers: chest, double chest, barrel, trapped chest, ender chest, and minecart with chest - all share vanilla's ChestMenu. Server re-validates the player's currently open menu before touching anything.
• Player inventory sorting via an "I" button (available on any container screen) and a rebindable hotkey (default R, Controls > Inventory) - only ever touches the 36 hotbar+storage slots, never equipped armor/offhand.
• Sort settings screen (Settings/"G" button): choose the primary sort key, persisted per-player to config/easy-sort.json and sent with every sort request, so it follows you across servers rather than being a per-server setting.
• Compact flat button row (custom MiniButton widget, no vanilla bevel texture) positioned inline with the container title / "Inventory" label.

Fixed

• The inventory-sort button no longer appears on Creative mode's item-browsing tabs (Building Blocks, Natural Blocks, etc.) - only on Creative's actual Inventory tab.

Known limitations

• Shulker boxes are not supported yet (separate ShulkerBoxMenu class) - planned post-MVP.
• The Restock and Quick Stack buttons are visible but not yet functional (disabled placeholders).
• The config screen lets you choose one primary sort key, not a full drag-and-drop multi-key ordering.

Testing

• GameTest integration coverage (gametest source set) for ContainerAdapter against real block entities/players/registries: chest merge+sort, max-stack-size capping, and confirming an inventory sort can never touch equipped armor/offhand. Runs automatically as part of ./gradlew build/CI.
