About
Crystalcore Lite is a client-side utility mod for crystal and respawn-anchor PvP, intended for small-scale single-player worlds and servers. Its configurable Totem Gaze/TriTotem feature opens the inventory, moves the cursor to a totem, and equips it, with adjustable speed and other settings. Crystal Flick Assist can shift your aim toward a nearby placeable block after a full-knockback hit when you have obsidian and end crystals in your hotbar, helping you place them quickly. Anchor Flick Assist moves your view down and back up when you overcharge a respawn anchor, supporting placement of a protective block before the anchor is destroyed; its speed is configurable. Crystal Breaker automatically destroys crystals in your crosshair while you hold right-click, except when you are above or level with the crystal, and right-drag simulates rapid block placement with selected blocks such as glowstone and obsidian. The mod adds vanilla-based sound effects for crystal actions and can soften explosion sounds, with the option to restore the default explosion sound; it also provides a visual indicator for crystalling. Tick randomness for most features can be configured and is enabled by default. When installed server-side, the mod also acts as an anti-cheat by checking for its own packet and removing players if it finds it.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for Fabric 1.21.11, 26.2 to 26.3.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Only in its files for Fabric 1.21.11, 26.2 to 26.3. See Privacy
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.4 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 4 are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends about you
We read its code without running it: it contacts 1 web address while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of all 4 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Purpose not known.
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found12 of 20 changelogs read
