Command Binds

A lightweight client-side mod for Minecraft that lets you map keyboard keys to arbitrary commands or chat text through a clean in-game GUI. No config file editing, no mods menu required — just press V, set up your binds, and go. Client-side only — safe to use on any server

---

Features

• Bind any key to a /command or plain chat message
• In-game GUI — open with V (rebindable in Controls settings)
• Scrollable binds list with color-coded badges (green = command, gray = message)
• Edit or delete existing binds directly from the list
• Persistent config — binds survive restarts, saved to config/commandbinds.json
• Works in singleplayer and multiplayer

Usage

Action	How
Open the GUI	Press V in-game
Add a bind	Type text or /command → click Pick Key → press the desired key → click Add
Edit a bind	Click any row in the list — it loads back into the input fields
Delete a bind	Click ✗ Del on any row
Trigger a bind	Press the bound key while no screen is open

Commands must start with / — the mod strips the slash and sends them via the command channel automatically. Everything else is sent as a regular chat message.

Config

Binds are stored in .minecraft/config/commandbinds.json and are loaded automatically on startup. You can edit the file manually if needed — the format is straightforward:

{
  "binds": [
    {
      "keyCode": 294,
      "text": "/gamemode creative",
      "label": "/gamemode creative"
    },
    {
      "keyCode": 295,
      "text": "Hello everyone!",
      "label": "Hello everyone!"
    }
  ]
}

keyCode values correspond to GLFW key codes.
