📖About Private Villagers

Private Villager

Server-side Fabric mod that makes villagers private! Only the player who placed a workstation can trade with the villager that claimed it. That player can then add allow more players to trade with their Villager!


🎯 How It Works

  1. You place a workstation (lectern, smithing table, etc.)
  2. A villager claims that workstation and gets a profession
  3. That villager now belongs to you — only you can trade with them
  4. Other players see: "You are not allowed to trade with this villager."

No client mod required — works entirely server-side!


✨ Features

Automatic Ownership

  • Villagers are automatically assigned to the player who placed their workstation
  • Ownership persists through server restarts
  • Works with all 13+ villager professions

Allow List System

  • Share your villagers with trusted players
  • Add or remove players from each villager's allow list
  • Allowed players can trade just like the owner

Admin Commands

  • Operators can reassign or clear villager ownership
  • Useful for server management and disputes

📋 Commands

All commands target the villager you're looking at, or optionally specify one with an entity selector.

Command Description Permission
/villager info [entity] Show owner and allow list Everyone
/villager add <player> [entity] Add player to allow list Owner only
/villager remove <player> [entity] Remove from allow list Owner only
/villager set <player> [entity] Set new owner OP only
/villager clear [entity] Remove all ownership data OP only

Tab completion is fully supported for player names and entity selectors.
