Ever struggled to figure out which workstation a villager needs to pick up a specific profession? Roughly Enough Professions Mod solves that problem by extending Roughly Enough Items (REI) with a dedicated profession lookup system. Simply press a hotkey on an emerald or villager spawn egg, and you get a clean overview of every villager profession and the workstation it requires — including professions added by other mods.
Key Features
- Profession Browser via REI — Press the Uses key (default: U) on an emerald or villager spawn egg to open a full list of all available villager professions in your modpack.
- Workstation Mapping — Each profession entry shows exactly which worktable or block is required, so you never have to guess or look it up on a wiki.
- Mod Source Identification — Hold Shift on any profession to reveal which mod added it — especially useful in large modpacks with custom villager roles.

How do I see which mod added a villager profession?
