Tag Tool
↓ Download on CurseForgeA minimal tagging utility for Bedrock. Add, remove, and view tags on any player through a clean in-game script driven UI, no commands or cheats needed.
Overview
Tag Tool is a lightweight addon that lets operators add and remove tags on players without turning cheats on. No fumbling with the /tag command, and no losing achievements. Just a clean in-game UI you open by using the item. It's intentionally small and focused entirely on tag management, so you can get straight to using your other addons.

Usage
Opening the UI
Hold the Tag Tool item and use it (right-click, or the interact button on mobile/controller) to open the main menu. Operators receive the item automatically on their first join. It can also be crafted at any crafting table: place a paper and a gold ingot together (shapeless) to get one.
Adding a tag
From the main menu, choose My Tags to manage your own tags, or Target Player to pick another online player. From the tag manager screen, select Add Tag, type a name into the text field (max 256 characters), and confirm. The tag is applied immediately.
Removing a tag
From the tag manager screen, select Remove Tag to see a list of all tags currently on that player. Select one to remove it immediately.
In-game help
The main menu includes a How to Use button that opens a built-in help screen covering all features. It's always up to date with the installed version.
Protected tags
Tags beginning with sb_, scoreboard, or
jm_ are hidden from the Tag Tool UI and cannot be added
or removed through it. This prevents accidental modification of
internal addon or scoreboard state.
Tag Tool works without cheats enabled. It's the cleanest way to
manage player tags on a survival or adventure world where
/tag would otherwise require operator cheats to be
on.
Commands
Tag Tool is UI-first and doesn't add custom slash commands. Standard
Bedrock /tag commands still work alongside it.
# Native Bedrock tag commands still work as expected
/tag @e[type=cow] add my_custom_tag
/tag @e listCompatibility
Tag Tool uses a minimal footprint to avoid conflicts with other packs:
-
Adds one custom item (
jm_tt:tag_tool) with a crafting recipe (no custom blocks) - No global scoreboard entries
- No dynamic properties used, so zero namespace footprint
Operator access
Tag Tool checks operator status in three stages. First it reads the
player's command permission level (the standard Bedrock operator
flag). If that isn't available, it falls back to player permission
level. As a final fallback, any player carrying one of the tags
op, operator, or admin is
granted access. It should work on all devices, but please reach out in
the Discord if you encounter any issues.
Works alongside all of my addons and most other addons on the same world without conflicts.
