CoreChatX 2026.2.3

Added

• Added channel command shortcuts through channels.<id>.shortcut.
  • Running /shortcut switches the player to that CoreChatX channel.
  • Running /shortcut <message> sends one message to that channel without changing the player's active channel.
• Added Discord nickname sync with account-linking.sync-mc-name for both Paper STANDALONE and Velocity PROXY. Linked Discord members can have their Discord nickname updated to the Minecraft nickname, falling back to the real player name when no custom nickname is set.
• Added Discord event mirrors through discord.event-messages for death and advancement messages.
  • Paper STANDALONE can send the event embeds directly.
  • Velocity PROXY can send the accepted backend events once per CoreChatX group.
• Added Discord server status embeds through discord.server-status.
  • Paper STANDALONE can announce clean server startup/shutdown.
  • Velocity PROXY can announce proxy startup/shutdown and backend online/offline state changes from backend-groups.*.
  • proxy, default, and servers.<id> entries can override channels, titles, descriptions, colors, and enabled flags.
• Added /corechatx itemcache <warmup|status|cancel> with corechatx.command.itemcache to pre-render Discord ChatItem item icons into cache.
• Added ChatItem token placeholders for in-game token formats: {token}, {name}, {material}, and {amount}. {name} uses custom_name, then item_name, then the material fallback.
• Added LICENSE and THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.md to document CoreChatX proprietary code and the third-party dependency notice summary.

Changed

• Removed shaded jar packaging. Paper now declares external runtime libraries through plugin.yml libraries, while Velocity downloads its external third-party jars into plugins/CoreChatX/libs and logs whether libraries were downloaded or already present.
• Discord ChatItem renders now default to discord-images.render.scale: 8, single-item-details-scale: 8, and single-item-details-icon-multiplier: 4.
• Velocity PlaceholderAPI resolution through PAPIProxyBridge now times out after 3 seconds and falls back to the original text instead of waiting indefinitely.

Fixed

• Fixed mentions and ping notifications for channels the target player cannot read. If the mentioned player cannot receive the channel, CoreChatX no longer pings them and no longer renders the name as an @ mention.
• Fixed Discord selected-item inspection hanging forever when the selected snapshot expired or the selected item could not be rendered. Discord now receives the configured expired-message or unavailable-message.
• Fixed intermittent missing Discord ChatItem previews in PROXY mode by sending preview packets on the server thread, allowing empty failure packets, retrying failed Discord image sends, and completing chunk transfers only once all chunks are available.
• Fixed enchanted books in Discord item rendering by including stored enchantments from EnchantmentStorageMeta, so stored enchants can appear in tooltip data and trigger enchanted rendering.
• Fixed Velocity Discord inbound delivery so backend plugin-message send failures are caught and logged per backend instead of silently breaking delivery.
• Fixed Velocity connection-message routing so proxy join/quit fanout handles backend send failures and keeps group join tracking consistent.
• Fixed Velocity YAML default synchronization for keys that existed with a null value, so missing defaults can be restored more consistently.

Configuration

New or changed default keys:

• channels.<id>.shortcut
• chatitems.yml -> tokens.item.token-format placeholders: {token}, {name}, {material}, {amount}
• chatitems.yml -> discord-images.render.scale: 8
• chatitems.yml -> discord-images.render.single-item-details-scale: 8
• chatitems.yml -> discord-images.render.single-item-details-icon-multiplier: 4
• account-linking.sync-mc-name
• discord.event-messages
• discord.server-status

plugin.yml now includes:

• Paper runtime libraries
• corechatx.command.itemcache

Migration

• Review discord.connection-messages.channels if you enabled Discord join/quit mirrors. Values must now be Discord channel IDs, not CoreChatX channel IDs.
• Review discord.server-status, discord.event-messages, and account-linking.sync-mc-name before enabling them, especially on Velocity networks.
• Existing configs should receive missing default keys automatically, but server owners should still compare channels.yml, chatitems.yml, discord.yml, and velocity-discord.yml with the new defaults.
