Tool slots for the hotbar: a hotbar slot becomes a tool belt with up to 8 tools that you cycle through with a key. Pickaxe, axe, shovel and sword need only one slot - the rest of the hotbar stays free for blocks and food. Plus: sort your inventory and chests with one click.
MRtoolbar consists of two parts - both are on the download page:
| Part | Who needs it | Where |
|---|---|---|
Plugin (MRtoolbar-mc26.3-v….jar) |
the server | Paper 26.3, Java 25 → folder plugins/ |
Client mod (MRtoolbar-mod-mc26.3-v….jar) |
every player who wants to use the tool bar | Fabric 26.3 with Fabric API → folder mods/ |
Players without the mod play normally on the server, just without the tool bar. Plugin and mod have their own versions: not every plugin update needs a mod update.

What can MRtoolbar do?
- Tool slots: a hotbar slot becomes a belt with up to 8 tools. You cycle through them with a key or
Alt+ mouse wheel. → Set up the mod & keys - Mending in the belt: tools with Mending are repaired in the belt as well - first the belt in your hand, then the others.
- Sort your inventory and chests with a middle click. You decide which slots stay where they are. → Sorting your inventory
- Hotbar design: frame, corners, underline, background or your own texture for your tool slots. → Hotbar design

/toolbar takeback. → Plugin and mod - For admins: number of slots and belt size per permission, an overview of all belts, everything configurable in
