About this Mod
KeyLens is a client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.11 that adds in-place keybind search to the Controls screen.
Instead of opening a separate menu, KeyLens lets you filter the built-in keybind list directly inside the vanilla Controls screen. It supports fuzzy matching for short inputs and field-specific searches with prefixes like category:, name:, and key:.
Features:
- Search directly inside the existing Controls screen
- Filter by category, keybind name, or bound key
- Fuzzy matching for short or partial inputs
- Prefix-based searches like
category:movement,name:jump, andkey:space - Client-side only
- Keeps the vanilla Controls screen flow intact
KeyLens is the first step in a broader keybind-focused utility mod. More keybind-related features will be added over time.

KeyLens server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is KeyLens compatible with fabric?
KeyLens officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with KeyLens – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if KeyLens consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
