About
Hex Gloop is an addon for Hex Casting that expands spellcasting with new items, blocks, patterns, and quality-of-life tools. Casting can be triggered in several ways: the Frogi casts when you double-jump, the Inventorty cat casts from your inventory, the Hex Pickaxe and Hex Blade cast while mining and attacking, and the Casting Ring lets you cast without holding a staff. For organizing and working with spells, it adds a radial spellbook menu, readable pattern rendering, a quick way to open the Hex Notebook while casting, and copying patterns from the notebook onto hanging scrolls. The addon also offers dyeable staves and spellbook covers, fireproof Covered Spellbooks, Essence Stones that turn captured entities’ spawn-egg colors into pigments, and RGB Gloop Dye that works with dyeable items from other mods. Circle-building components include Pedestals for embedding non-pattern iotas, Syncetrix devices for sending media waves across short distances, Accelerators that speed up circles, Undulators that signal when a media wave passes, and Gloopy Slate Chests that supply circles with blocks and items. Other spellcasting tools include wearable Focal Jewelry, Scripts that store up to 16 patterns, a compact Multi Focus, drinkable Casting Potions, and Caster’s Coins that hold an iota readable only once. Fidgets and the Mind’s Orchard let players select values for use in hexes, while Mirrors make another item available to hexes through the offhand. New patterns extend hexes with redstone and dimension information, hotbar and hand manipulation, iota storage and retrieval, and ways to inspect or handle casting mishaps. Truename Protection warns when a truename is exposed and adds a spell to void existing references to it.

Security
No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.19.2.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Uses folders outside the game
- It can read or write files outside your Minecraft folder, on the rest of your computer. Only in its files for Fabric 1.19.2.
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.2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. 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
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
- Uses folders outside the gameUses the temporary files folder.
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.The internet, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.19.2.
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
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 both files, for Minecraft 1.19.2. See each file in Releases
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images and found none.
We have not read its changelogs and code history yet.
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.No AI content or AI features declared.
