Modrinth Direct

Browse and install mods without leaving Minecraft

Modrinth Direct replaces the ModMenu Mods button with a fully functional in-game
mod browser backed by the official Modrinth API. Find the mod you need, click Install,
restart — done. No browser, no launcher switching, no manual file management.

✨ Features

🔍 In-game search
Type any query into the search bar and get live results straight from the Modrinth library,
filtered for Fabric 1.21.11.

📦 One-click installation
Hit Install on any mod card to download the .jar directly into your mods/ folder.
Modrinth Direct takes care of the file naming and placement automatically.

🔗 Automatic dependency resolution
Required dependencies declared by the mod are detected and downloaded alongside the main mod —
so you don’t have to chase them down manually.

🗂️ Installed tab
A dedicated tab lists everything you’ve installed through Modrinth Direct, so you always know
what came from where.

🍞 Toast notifications
Unobtrusive in-game toasts keep you informed: downloading, installed successfully, or error —
without interrupting your workflow.

🖼️ Mod artwork
Mod icons load inline in the results list, with full support for WebP images.

🔧 Technical notes

• Modrinth Direct is client-side only. It does not need to be installed on a server.
• Installed mod metadata is stored in mods/.modrinth-direct/installed-mods.json.
• The mod hooks into the ModMenu button via a Mixin, so ModMenu must be present.
• Internet access is required for search and downloads.
