PermissionManager
What it is
PermissionManager is a lightweight permission management plugin for Minecraft servers using Paper or Folia. Administrators can add a permission node to a player with `/perm add ` and remove one with `/perm remove `. Use of the `/perm` command requires the `perm.use` permission. The project names `groups.yml` and `uses.yml` as configuration files, and administrators can reload configuration with `/perm reload`. The listed pinned version is 1.0.6-20240721, with a stated Minecraft version range of 1.20.2–1.21; Hangar provides a download labeled `1.20.2-1.21`. English is listed as supported, and the resource is categorized as an Admin Tools item. The project includes a GPL-3.0 license and is free; its repository page does not state a product price or paid plan. YAML files are the listed storage backend. Its scope is focused on player permissions: the listed capabilities do not include group inheritance, network support, a web editor or temporary permissions.
