Console Peek
The ability for ops to see recent lines from the console log
⬇ Download on ModrinthConsolePeek
A tiny Paper plugin that adds /console <lines> — it reads the last N lines of
logs/latest.log and prints them into chat for whoever ran the command.
Never again will you need to visit the web portal to whitelist when your friend forgets their username. Simply wait for a failed login attempt, then run /console X to see their username. Helpful for quick debugs.
