Problem

Reported by a player: a skinned book reverts to the default texture after its pages are saved (not signed), and then it can't be skinned again.

Reproduced on TFMCDev01 with a mineflayer bot (ArmourShop 1.1.8 code, same book code as 1.1.7 on Main):

  • Skin an MMOItems WRITABLE_BOOK, save one page: the item keeps only writable_book_content. Model, name, lore, IA identity and MMOItems id are gone.
  • /armourshop then answers "No item to apply skin on in your inventory".
  • A plain MMOItems book loses its MMOItems id the same way, so it can never be skinned after its first save.

Cause

ItemsAdder 4.0.18's book text-effect/font-image formatter (book: enabled: true, same on Dev and Main) handles PlayerEditBookEvent at MONITOR. It rebuilds the new meta with BookMeta.toBuilder()...build(), and on Paper 1.21.10 that creates a book with only pages. paper dumplisteners shows it registered after ArmourShop's MONITOR handler, so it overwrites BookEditSkinPreserver's restored meta. The old comment assumed ArmourShop ran after ItemsAdder.

Fix

  • Keep the in-event restore (it still works when the IA formatter is off).
  • Also schedule a next-tick check. If the same slot now holds a writable book that is no longer custom and has the saved page count, put back the original item with the saved pages. The pages come from the saved book, so IA formatting is kept.
  • A book that was moved or replaced, a book that is still custom, or a player who went offline is left alone.
  • isCustomBook also accepts MMOItems items, so plain MMOItems books keep their id and stay skinnable.

Books already stripped on Main are vanilla now and are not recovered by this change.

Tests

  • Unit tests for the next-tick restore, the guard cases, and MMOItems detection.
  • Dev bot test (skin → save → check → re-skin, plus an edited unskinned book → skin) to follow on this PR.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Book edits now preserve the book’s original appearance and item properties if those details are removed during processing, while retaining edited pages and the current stack size.
    • Restoration is deferred until processing is complete and skipped if the book has been replaced, remains custom, has a different page count, or the player is offline.
  • Compatibility
    • Books identified through MythicLib are now recognized as custom books.

ItemsAdder's book text/emoji formatter listens at MONITOR too but
registers after ArmourShop, and rebuilds the new BookMeta from pages
only. Saving an unsigned skinned book therefore dropped its model, IA
identity and MMOItems id, so it reverted to the default texture and
could no longer be skinned.

Check the book on the next tick, after every handler has run. If it is
still in the same slot, stripped to a plain book with the saved page
count, put back the original item with the saved (formatted) pages.
Plain MMOItems books are protected too, so they stay skinnable.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Book edit handling now schedules a deferred check that can restore original item components while retaining edited pages and the current stack amount. Custom-book detection now includes items with MythicLib NBT types.

Changes

Book edit preservation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Custom book detection and scheduling
src/main/java/net/tfminecraft/armourshop/managers/BookEditSkinPreserver.java, src/test/java/net/tfminecraft/armourshop/managers/BookEditSkinPreserverTest.java
The handler accepts a deferred-task scheduler. Custom-book detection recognizes MythicLib-typed items. Tests cover scheduling and type detection.
Deferred restoration and guards
src/main/java/net/tfminecraft/armourshop/managers/BookEditSkinPreserver.java, src/test/java/net/tfminecraft/armourshop/managers/BookEditSkinPreserverTest.java
The deferred check restores original item components with the current pages and amount when the player, slot item, custom status, metadata, and page count meet the checks. Tests cover successful restoration and skipped cases.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: ryanbarlow97

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8c503

Restoration can overwrite a different book placed in the slot before the deferred check. This narrow item-loss risk warrants owner attention before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8c503

The change protects custom books from losing their identity, but its delayed repair can mistake a different book for the one that was edited. If a replacement can occur before the repair runs, this could overwrite an item or recreate a custom book. Whether players can reliably reach that timing remains unverified.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: A different non-custom writable book with the expected page count can satisfy the deferred repair guard. The task would replace it with a clone of the originally edited custom book; if the original was moved, this may duplicate its identity or overwrite the replacement.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The identified write targets the editing player's inventory slot. The inspected path does not establish access to another player's inventory; repeated reachable replacements could nevertheless affect custom-item integrity.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A player-controlled unsigned edit initiates the task. If the original is moved and a different plain book with the same page count occupies the slot before it runs, the guards permit the captured custom stack to replace that book. The required timing has not been established in the target runtime.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The write crosses from event-time knowledge of an original custom item to later inventory contents. Online status, item type, custom status, and page count are checked, but no original-item or edit-operation identity is checked.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Independent queued edits have no latest-operation check. If their callbacks overlap, an earlier restoration can supply stale identity, while a later callback may stop on finding a custom book; actual callback ordering remains unverified.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bind deferred restoration to the originating edit and item provenance, rather than treating a matching slot and page count as sufficient proof of ownership; validate same-count replacement and overlapping-edit transitions.

A rabbit checks the book at night,
Its pages tucked and written right.
Next tick, the saved skin comes to view,
The stack stays whole, its pages too.
Hop by hop, the checks run through.

Check MMOItems before ItemsAdder so the MMOItems case never loads the
ItemsAdder API, which cannot be mocked without the server.

MythicLib is a soft dependency, so guard the NBTItem lookup.

@coderabbitai review — MythicLib lookup is now guarded with isPluginEnabled("MythicLib") (c.f. latest commit).
