[Unreleased]

[1.6.6] - 2026-06-14

Added

• [coords] / [here] location token. Share your current position as a clickable label in chat. Anyone can click to copy coordinates; staff with rexchat.coords.teleport can run /rexchat tpcoords <id> to teleport to the shared location.
• Custom chat token API. Other plugins (and chat-previews.custom-tokens in config) can register clickable tokens with custom labels, hovers, and click actions (open_url, run_command, suggest_command, copy_to_clipboard). See RexChatAPI#registerCustomToken.
• In-game container previews. Shulker boxes, barrels, bundles, and decorated pots inside inventory/item preview GUIs can be clicked to inspect their stored contents (read-only). Discord [item] previews now include container contents for all supported container types.
• In-game shulker box contents preview. When viewing a player's inventory or held item via [inventory] / [item], clicking a shulker box inside the read-only preview GUI opens a second GUI showing what's inside. The window title is the shulker's custom name, or its default material name if unnamed. Nested shulkers (a shulker inside another shulker) can be clicked through as well.
• DiscordSRV — shulker contents for [item]. When the held item is a shulker box, Discord now receives a second embed alongside the usual item card: a rendered PNG of the shulker GUI with its contents, titled with the shulker's name. Toggle with chat-discord.previews.item-shulker-contents (default: true); embed accent color via chat-discord.embeds.item.shulker.color.
• DiscordSRV — rendered inventory & ender chest images. When a chat message contains [inv] or [ec], RexChat now renders an actual PNG that looks like the in-game GUI (light grey panel, recessed slots, real item textures, Monocraft font for stack counts) and posts it as a Discord attachment. Item textures are downloaded once from the configurable CDN (defaults to InventiveTalent's mirror) and cached under <plugin folder>/textures/.
• Bundled the Monocraft font (v4.2.1) under resources/fonts/Monocraft.ttf so counts render with the Minecraft typeface even on servers that don't have a Minecraft-style font installed.
• chat-discord.images.texture-base-url config option to point the renderer at a different texture mirror.
• DiscordSRV soft-dependency integration: when DiscordSRV is installed, chat messages containing [item], [inv], [ec] or [bal] tokens are forwarded to the linked Discord channel as the regular chat line plus rich embeds for the previews. Items get a thumbnail (configurable URL template, defaults to InventiveTalent's Minecraft asset mirror), durability, enchantments and lore. Balances are inlined directly in the relayed line via Vault Economy.
• chat-discord config section with toggles per preview type, channel selection (DSRV game-channel name, empty = main channel), embed colors and titles.

[1.6.5] - 2026-05-10

Added

• New [bal] / [balance] / [money] chat preview tokens (and {bal}, {balance}, {money} variants) that show the sender's economy balance via Vault, with hover tooltip showing the full amount.
• messages.preview.balance config section with label-template, hover and unavailable-label (placeholders: {balance}, {amount}, {currency}, {player}).
• Dedicated ender chest preview support: [ec] / [enderchest] / [echest] tokens (and curly variants) open a preview of the sender's ender chest on click.
• Nightly build GitHub Actions workflow that publishes a rolling nightly pre-release with the latest jar on every push to main.
• Release GitHub Actions workflow that, on every v* tag, builds the jar, creates a GitHub Release, and publishes the version to Modrinth (paper, purpur, folia, bukkit, spigot — Minecraft 1.20.4+).

Fixed

• [ec] / [enderchest] tokens were not being replaced when the sender had a chatcolor preset selected — the color code was being prepended to the token, breaking literal matching. Balance and ender chest tokens are now also excluded from chatcolor application.
• Emoji aliases like :) and <3 were also matching when used inside longer sequences (e.g. :)), <33). Aliases now only match as standalone tokens (surrounded by whitespace, start, or end of the message).
• rexchat.preview.enderchest permission was missing from plugin.yml.
• Mention highlighting could break message colors and was sometimes missing the @ symbol.
• Player chat color is now restored after a mention highlight instead of being reset to white.
