Keep unwanted items out of your offhand. Offhand Guard is a client-side Fabric mod that allows shields and totems of undying by default, while letting you choose your own allowed items.
Install the matching Fabric API. Install Mod Menu to open Mods > Offhand Guard > Configure. The settings order is Protection, Allowed items, Blocked sound, Hold to bypass, then Done.
Settings are saved in config/offhand-guard.json. Minecraft stores the bypass binding in options.txt.
Offhand Guard prevents accidental client input. It does not remove existing items or override inventory changes forced by a server, commands, or other mods. Compatibility with every third-party inventory mod or server plugin is not guaranteed.
