Description

Non-operator players cannot use a stick to inspect the owner of a claimed area. Instead of showing the claim owner, the interaction is rejected as though the player were attempting to modify a block in another player’s claim. Operators can still perform the lookup.

Reproduction

Join as a non-operator player.
Hold a stick.
Use the stick on a block inside another player’s claim to inspect the claim owner.
Observe that the interaction is blocked.
Repeat as an operator and observe that the claim-owner lookup works.

Expected behavior

Using a stick on a claimed block shows the claim owner to ordinary players without requiring operator privileges.

Actual behavior

The lookup is rejected with the claim-protection message: “You can’t interact with blocks inside this claim.” The owner is not shown unless the player is an operator.

Evidence

The report includes a screenshot named cb0f8bc7-b5e6-4146-80da-159dcc088ab3.png showing the failed lookup and protection message. A durable GitHub-hosted copy is pending upload; the original bytes were downloaded and SHA-256 verified during intake (19e6b6c8901c8426de6410e19d8f2e055ffc65b08d7ad8047fb095fceff328ed).

Relevant area

Claim interaction handling in gobds/session/handler_inventory_transaction.go contains special handling for minecraft:stick and claim-protection rejection paths, making smell-of-curry/gobds the canonical repository for this report.

Acceptance criteria

Non-operators can use a stick to inspect claim ownership.
The lookup does not bypass normal claim protection for block modification.
Operator behavior remains unchanged.
