Claim your land. Keep it safe.
Homestead is a complete land-claim and anti-grief mod for Fabric servers. Players claim chunks with one command, trust their friends, and everything they build is protected: from other players, and from explosions, fire, lava, pistons and mobs.
Server-side only. Players join with a vanilla client and still get the particle borders, the claim map and the "Entering…" messages.
/claim claims the chunk you're standing in. /unclaim gives it back, and /unclaim all releases everything./claim auto claims every chunk you walk into, which is perfect for fencing off a big base in one walk./claim list shows all your claims with coordinates. /claim info shows who owns the chunk you're in and what you're allowed to do there.Three trust levels, and each includes the ones before it:
| Level | Lets them |
|---|---|
access |
Use doors, trapdoors, gates, buttons, levers, beds, crafting tables, anvils and other workstations, and ride your animals |
containers |
Everything above, plus chests, barrels, furnaces, hoppers, shulker boxes and chest boats/minecarts |
build |
Everything: break and place blocks, buckets, item frames, armor stands, animals |
/trust <player> [access|containers|build], /untrust <player> and /trustlist. Trust applies to all your claims at once.
Inside someone else's claim, untrusted players can't:
They get a clear message: "This land belongs to Steve."
/claim show draws colored particle walls along nearby claim borders for 15 seconds: green for yours, red for others, gold for the server. Only you can see them./claim map prints a colored chunk map around you in chat: yours, trusted, other players, the server and wilderness.Owners choose what's allowed in their land with /claim flag <flag> <true|false>. Everything is off (protected) by default:
| Flag | When on |
|---|---|
pvp |
Players can fight in your claims |
explosions |
Explosions can break blocks in your claims |
fire_spread |
Fire can spread and burn in your claims |
mob_griefing |
Endermen can take blocks from your claims |
/claim admin bypass toggles ignoring all claims, for moderation./claim admin server makes the chunk you're in a server claim, protected for everyone. It's ideal for spawn./claim admin unclaim removes any claim.Settings are in config/homestead.json:

Can monsters still hurt me in claims? Yes. Claims protect your stuff, not you from mobs, and you can always fight monsters anywhere.
Is PvP allowed in the wilderness? Homestead only changes PvP inside claims. Outside them, your server's normal PvP setting applies.
Do claims work in the Nether and End? Yes, claims work in every dimension.
