Keystrokes — Horizon mod
Horizon's official keystrokes overlay: movement keys, mouse buttons and space bar in a corner, lit while held, with CPS.
Keystrokes is the Horizon team's own input overlay. A corner of the screen shows your movement keys, both mouse buttons and the space bar, each lighting up while held, with clicks per second under the mouse buttons. It's a staple for PvP clips, streams and tutorials, where viewers want to see exactly what you're pressing. It used to live under Options > Horizon Extras and became a separate native mod in 2.0.0.
Features
- Forward, left, back and right, matching your own key bindings.
- Left and right mouse buttons plus the space bar.
- Each key lights up while held.
- Clicks per second under each mouse button (optional).
- Choice of screen corner.
Settings: Options > Mods > Keystrokes > Settings.
Compatibility and install
Native mod, version 2.0.0, for Minecraft 26.3. Install it from the Mods page of your instance in the launcher and press Build in the "Native build of …" row. The first native build downloads Rust and takes 20–30 minutes and a few GB of disk; after that, rebuilds take minutes. Settings from 1.0.0 carry over. See the install guide.
Limitations
It reads which keys you hold and your clicks, and draws them on the HUD — that's all. Customisation is minimal: corner and CPS on or off; colours and size aren't mentioned. Turn it off in Options > Mods and it stops immediately; the next build leaves it out. MIT-licensed source in horizon-mods.

How to install
Find the mod in the launcher
Open the Horizon launcher, pick an instance on the left and go to its Mods page. In the Horizon tab, find "Keystrokes" and press Install.
Build the mods
In the Native build of … row press Build and confirm you trust these mods. The first build downloads Rust and takes 20–30 minutes and a few GB of disk; later builds take a couple of minutes.
Play
Play that instance — your other instances never run the mod. Turn it on and configure it in game under Options → Mods.
FAQ
Does it follow my custom keybinds?
Yes. Forward, left, back and right appear as you bound them.
Can I hide the CPS counter?
Yes, clicks per second under the mouse buttons can be turned off in Options > Mods > Keystrokes > Settings, where you also pick the corner.
I had keystrokes on in Extras. Do I need to install it?
No. On its first start after the update, Horizon installed the official mod for you with your settings.
How do I install Keystrokes?
From the Horizon launcher: Mods page → find "Keystrokes" → Install. The launcher checks the SHA-256 for you. A native mod is then compiled with the Build button — the first build takes 20–30 minutes. The full steps are in "How to install" above.
Which Minecraft version does Keystrokes support?
The latest version, 2.0.0, targets Minecraft 26.3 on Horizon.
Can I download Keystrokes from this site?
Yes. Its MIT license allows redistribution, so we host the file, and its SHA-256 matches the official registry.
