Auto Mending
Automatically repair your Mending-enchanted gear using your own XP — no more juggling items between hands while standing at a mob farm.

What It Does
Normally, the Mending enchantment only repairs items you’re holding or wearing. Items sitting in your inventory with Mending stay broken. Auto Mending changes that: it automatically spreads your collected XP to every Mending-enchanted item in your inventory, not just the ones in your hotbar or armor slots.

How It Affects Gameplay
No more manual item rotation. Stop swapping your nearly-broken pickaxe into your off-hand every time you collect XP orbs. Just play — your gear repairs itself.
Full inventory coverage. Pickaxe, shovel, axe, spare armor, Elytra — if it has Mending and it’s anywhere in your inventory, it gets repaired.
XP efficiency. Experience is distributed evenly across all damaged Mending items. No XP is wasted on fully-repaired gear.
XP farming value. Your mob farms and XP grinders become significantly more useful — pump XP into all your tools at once instead of one at a time.
