Storage Finder

Storage Finder helps you find items without opening every chest in your base. It remembers the contents of containers you've opened, then lets you search that saved information and see matching containers through walls.

Using it

Open your chests, barrels, or shulker boxes as usual. The mod saves their contents on your client and keeps that memory between sessions, separately for each world. It works with modded containers too.

Press the search keybind and type an item name to see matching containers, item counts, and distances. Fuzzy matching helps when you haven't typed the exact name.

Matching containers get an outline visible through blocks. Green means plenty of the item, yellow means the supply is running low, and red means only a few remain.

You can also give containers names and colored categories, such as "Building blocks" or "Redstone." Labels appear above the container. You can leave this alone if you only want the search.

Installation

Install the mod on your client. It works in singleplayer and on vanilla or modded servers without a server installation or additional dependencies. It is designed to be lightweight, and you can change the keybinds in the controls menu.

Available for Fabric and NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1, and Fabric and Forge on Minecraft 1.20.1.

What does this mod do?

You know that thing where you've got like 40 chests in your base and you need iron but you have no idea which chest it's in? So you start opening them one by one, getting more frustrated with each wrong chest?

This mod fixes that.

Storage Finder quietly remembers the contents of every chest, barrel, and shulker box you open while you play. When you need to find something, hit a keybind, type the item name, and it tells you exactly where it is. Matching containers glow through walls so you can walk straight to them.

That's it. No complicated setup, no config files, no server installation needed. Just install it and play like normal.

How it works

It learns as you play. Every time you open a container, the mod saves what's inside on your client. You don't need to do anything special — just play the game and it builds up a map of your storage over time.

Search across everything at once. Press a keybind to open the search bar. Start typing an item name and it shows you every container that has it, how many, and how far away it is. Fuzzy matching means you don't need to type the exact name.

Containers glow through walls. When you search for an item, chests that have it get a colored outline you can see through blocks. Green means plenty, yellow means running low, red means last few. You'll never open the wrong chest again.

Label your containers (optional). You can give containers custom names and color-coded categories like "Building Blocks" or "Redstone Stuff." These show up as floating text above the container. Totally optional — the mod works fine without it.
