About this Mod
ChatTracker
ChatTracker is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod that automatically records all in-game chat messages into a local SQLite database. Search, filter, and export your entire chat history — across servers, launchers, and play sessions.
🤖 This mod was built with Claude Code by Anthropic.
✨ Features
💾 Automatic Chat Recording
All chat messages are captured and stored locally the moment they appear. Messages are saved asynchronously on a background thread, so there is zero impact on game performance. Supports player messages, whispers, and system messages.
🔍 Powerful Search & Filtering
Open the search screen with a single keybind and instantly find any message. Filter results by:
- Server — Find messages from a specific server
- Date — Browse chat history by date
- Message Type — Player chat, whispers, or system messages
📜 Scrollable Results
Search results are displayed in a smooth, scrollable list that dynamically adapts to your screen size. Navigate with the mouse wheel, drag the scrollbar, or use keyboard shortcuts (Arrow keys, Page Up/Down, Home/End). Results are loaded 3,000 at a time and automatically fetch more as you scroll.
📋 Click to Copy
Click any message row to instantly copy it to your clipboard. Hovered rows are highlighted for easy selection.
📊 Chat Statistics
View detailed stats about your chat history:
- Overview — Total messages, breakdown by type, top servers, top senders, recent dates
- Servers — Message count per server with bar charts
- Senders — Most active players with bar charts
- Dates — Daily message activity with bar charts
📤 Export
Export your filtered chat history as TXT or CSV files for external use or backup.
🌐 Cross-Launcher Support
Chat history is stored in a shared location (%APPDATA%/.minecraft/chattracker/), so your data is accessible across different launchers:
- Vanilla Minecraft (Fabric)
- Lunar Client
- Feather Client
- Modrinth Launcher
- Any Fabric-compatible launcher
🔌 Public API for Mod Developers
Other mods can query ChatTracker's stored messages through ChatTrackerAPI — no need to implement your own chat storage.
json "suggests": { "chattracker": "*" }
java if (ChatTrackerAPI.isAvailable()) { List<ChatMessage> msgs = ChatTrackerAPI.search("hello", 100, 0); int total = ChatTrackerAPI.getTotalMessages(); List<String> servers = ChatTrackerAPI.getServers(); Map<String, Integer> topSenders = ChatTrackerAPI.getTopSenders(10); }

mCaTracker 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 (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is mCaTracker compatible with fabric?
mCaTracker officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with mCaTracker – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if mCaTracker 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.
