Resource Market

The Market tab lets you browse and install community content directly into an instance.

Supported sources and categories

• Sources: Modrinth and CurseForge.
• Categories: Mods, Shaders, Resource Packs, Data Packs, and Modpacks.
• Filtering: Multi-select loaders, categories, environments, sort order, and target Minecraft versions.

CurseForge API key: Modrinth works out of the box without any key. For CurseForge, provide your own API key via MCL_CURSEFORGE_API_KEY or enter it in the in-app CurseForge configuration view (kept in memory only).

Asset management & diagnostics

Inside an instance’s Assets tab, mcl tracks installed files and source metadata:

• Toggle & remove — Enable, disable, or undoably remove managed files (removed-assets).
• Local identification — Match existing files by cryptographic hash (SHA-1 / CurseForge fingerprint) to recover project metadata without guessing by filename.
• Dependency diagnostics — Detect missing, disabled, duplicate, incompatible, or conflicting dependencies using both platform metadata and embedded mod declarations (fabric.mod.json, quilt.mod.json, mods.toml, neoforge.mods.toml).
• Safe updates — Stage compatible version updates in a private directory and publish non-destructively while preserving disabled states.
