X-SHIELD (anti cheater)

X-SHIELD is a server administration utility for NeoForge 1.21.1 that helps server operators detect and monitor unauthorized client modifications and resource packs.

Features:

• Detects unauthorized client modifications and resource packs (such as X-Ray texture packs) when a player joins the server
• Sends a detailed alert to all online operators including the player's name, UUID, and the name of the flagged modification
• Clickable [Spectate] button — instantly sets the operator to Spectator mode and teleports them directly to the suspect
• Clickable [Shame] button — broadcasts a public server-wide message exposing the player for using unauthorized modifications
• Clickable [ModList] button — shows the operator the suspect's full installed mod list and active resource packs at a glance
• Writes per-player audit logs to logs/X-Shield PlayerLogs/<PlayerName> (UUID).txt — every session is recorded with the player's full mod list, so admins can review history even if no operator was online at the time
• Optional Discord Webhook integration to receive real-time alerts directly in a Discord channel
• Fully configurable via xshield-server.toml — operator permission level, Discord webhook URL, custom detection keywords, and a whitelist for legitimate mods whose names may trigger a false positive
• Requires installation on both client and server — players without the mod cannot join the server

How it works: When a player connects to the server, X-SHIELD collects their installed mod list and active resource packs and sends them to the server. The server then matches them against a configurable keyword list. If a match is found, all online operators are immediately notified with a detailed, interactive alert message.

Note: X-SHIELD is a first-line detection and administration tool designed to assist server operators. It is not a substitute for server-side anti-cheat solutions and is intended to be used alongside them. Operators are encouraged to verify suspicious activity manually before taking action against a player.
