KudosCap is a lightweight Minecraft plugin designed to enhance gameplay on servers running McMMO by enforcing skill-based mining restrictions. Integrated seamlessly with McMMO, KudosCap prevents players from breaking valuable blocks like diamond ore, ancient debris, and spawners until they reach configurable skill levels, ensuring a balanced progression system. The plugin fetches players' mining levels directly from McMMO in real-time, requiring no independent data storage, and blocks drops and XP gains for restricted breaks to maintain fairness.

Styled with a distinctive gold and yellow theme (« Kudos »), KudosCap provides clear, customizable feedback messages to players when restrictions apply. It supports administrative flexibility with commands like /kudoscap reload to update settings on the fly and a bypass permission (kudoscap.bypass) for staff, manageable via LuckPerms. With compatibility adjustments for plugins like MineXFarmRegen, KudosCap ensures robust performance in complex server environments. Ideal for survival servers aiming to reward skill mastery while keeping the experience immersive and themed.
