Is there any way to automatically install mods for the client that are installed on the server ?

Usually the player needs to manually download mods that are on the server, but how can I implement automatic installation of mods for the client, as it is done with resource packs? Is there any plugins for it?

No, and this is a terrible idea.

Why? Because it's an easy way to distribute malware?

I think you could probably make an implementation like this involve a massive, intimidating, scary warning + confirmation message, stating the server requires you to grant it unsupervised file distribution permissions, which technically allow whoever manages the server to ship you any file(s) they decide. And that you should never allow this option to be used by a public server, only when playing amongst friends that you trust blindly?
Something like that?

It would make my life as the server-managing-person amongst my friends a lot easier at least 😛
