Snitch
Snitch is a surveillance and forensic system based on sculk blocks, brushes, and sniffers. A configured calibrated sculk sensor records nearby activity by players who lack access to its interaction key. Separate forensic records identify recent changes to blocks throughout the server.
Sculk sensor snitches
A calibrated sculk sensor becomes a snitch after it is reinforced with Citadel and bound to an interaction key. The sensor stores up to 54 vibration records caused by players without matching access. Right-clicking the sensor opens its log interface.
A sculk shrieker placed within eight blocks enables alerts for the associated snitch. The sensor continues to record activity without a shrieker, but does not notify key holders. A linked shrieker retains its sound and visual behavior while no longer spawning wardens or applying darkness.
Online key holders receive in-game alerts, subject to a two-second cooldown for each snitch. Players who link their Minecraft and Discord accounts with /link may also configure direct messages and webhooks.
Webhook delivery is independent of direct-message preferences. A configured webhook receives an alert whenever its owner has access to the snitch. Direct messages can be disabled, limited to periods when the player is offline, or enabled at all times.
Block forensics
Block placement, breaking, and interaction records are retained for 14 days. Right-clicking a block with a brush reveals its history in successive stages, including the action, timestamp, and player name.
Sniffer scents
An adult sniffer provides the recent player history of its current chunk. Right-clicking it with an empty hand opens a single-chest interface containing up to 27 unique players, ordered by their most recent visit. A returning player updates the existing entry rather than creating a duplicate. Entries expire after seven days without another visit.
The scent record belongs to the chunk, not to the individual sniffer. Moving the animal to another chunk displays that chunk’s records. The feature does not require a snitch, key, or reinforcement, and cannot be opened through a baby sniffer.
