Compatibility

Embellish Chat is designed to work as a server-side chat enhancement mod. Some integrations add new targeting options or placeholder values, while some chat-formatting mods may take priority over its styling pipeline.

Supported Integrations

Integration	Support	Notes
Fabric Permissions API	Built in	Rule group keys in style_rules and mention_rules are used as permission nodes.
Text Placeholder API	Built in	Placeholder values can be used in prefixes, mention overlay text, JSON payloads, and other configured text.
Styled Nicknames	Supported	Player mentions can resolve nicknames when the integration is present.
LuckPerms	Supported	Required for LUCK_PERMS_GROUP mention actions such as @group(admin).
Advanced Chat	Supported	Required for ADVANCED_CHAT_CHANNEL mention actions such as channel mentions.
Geyser	Supported	Java and Bedrock players can mention each other normally. Hover text and click events may not fully render on Bedrock clients.

Known Conflicts

Mod	Behavior	Recommendation
Styled Chat	Styled Chat takes priority over Embellish Chat's style processing. Mention processing still works.	If both mods are installed, remove entries from style_rules to avoid unnecessary style checks.

Practical Notes

Client rendering can vary

Server-side text components are still interpreted by the client. Java clients usually show hover and click events correctly, while Bedrock clients connected through Geyser may display a simpler version.

Keep only the systems you use

If another mod already owns chat formatting, use Embellish Chat for mentions and showcases only. Keeping unused style rules empty reduces message-processing work.
