Claim Kickstart

Automatically gives new players a Golden Shovel when they place their first chest, helping them get started with GriefPrevention land claims right away.

Features

• Automatic reward — places a configurable item in the player's inventory on first chest placement
• Configurable delivery mode — choose between instant AUTO delivery or opt-in CLAIM_CHAT with a clickable chat prompt
• Click-to-claim flow — in CLAIM_CHAT mode, players receive a clickable [Claim] message and only get the reward when they click it
• Secure claim tokens — tokens are bound to the player's UUID and expire after a configurable duration, preventing theft or exploits
• GriefPrevention-aware — optionally skips players who already have existing claims
• Handles full inventories — in AUTO mode, drops the item at the player's feet; in CLAIM_CHAT mode, prompts the player to make space and retry
• Admin commands — grant, reset, and check reward status for any player
• Fully configurable — customize the reward item, amount, delivery mode, and all messages with color codes
• Lightweight — no dependencies other than GriefPrevention (optional), flat-file data storage

Commands

Admin commands require the claimkickstart.admin permission (default: op).
