Summary

ModGUI is a free, self-hosted moderation plugin for Paper servers, with graphical tools for punishing, investigating, and reporting players. Administrators can configure punishment types, icons, permissions, console commands, and durations; actions run as console commands and can work with LiteBans, AdvancedBan, EssentialsX, and other punishment plugins. Its investigation interface can show a player's current-session anticheat flags through GrimAC, which is optional and needed for that tracking. Staff can add notes to a player, and players can file reports using /report with optional severity levels. Discord webhooks can relay punishments, anticheat alerts, reports, and staff notes, with optional role pings. A recovery compass opens the investigation interface on right-click. ModGUI requires Paper 1.21.11 or newer. Installation involves adding the JAR to the server's plugins folder, restarting, configuring files, and running /modgui reload. Configuration covers punishment settings, GUI borders, messages, webhook URLs, GrimAC thresholds, ignored checks, and report cooldowns. The plugin is released under the MIT License.

Who it is for

ModGUI suits administrators of Paper servers who want configurable moderation tools and Discord logging. GrimAC is relevant only for servers that want anticheat flag tracking.
