World Auto Tool Swap

Never waste time manually switching tools while mining! This mod automatically selects the best tool from your inventory when you start breaking a block.
Features
- ✅ Smart Tool Detection - Automatically uses the right tool type for each block
- Shovels for dirt, grass, sand, gravel, clay, farmland, soul sand, snow
- Axes for logs, planks, fences, doors, chests, crafting tables
- Pickaxes for stone, ores, and everything else
- ✅ Enchantment Preferences - Prioritizes tools with better enchantments
- Efficiency (higher levels preferred)
- Unbreaking (higher levels preferred)
- ✅ Switch Back Feature - Returns to your previous item after mining (2 second delay)
- ✅ Flexible Search - Choose between hotbar-only or full inventory search
How It Works
Left-click on any block to start mining. The mod detects the block type and finds the best matching tool. Your hotbar automatically switches to that tool. After you finish mining (2 seconds of inactivity), it switches back to your original item.
