About this Mod
Close Inventory adds a dedicated keybind for closing vanilla inventory and container screens. Instead of relying only on ESC, you can assign your own separate key in the Inventory category and use it specifically for closing open inventories, chests, crafting tables, furnaces, and other vanilla-style container menus.
This mod does not replace ESC, does not add a custom menu, and does not change how Minecraft’s normal pause or options screens work. It only adds one simple extra control for players who want a cleaner or more convenient way to close inventories
