How to detect GUI (inventory) opening?

Hi, I've been trying for some time to write code that detects the moment I open the GUI to a player, but I can't manage it.

After a long search, I came across a class called "GuiScreen", but I can't use it - it just doesn't exist.

In general, I would like to know how to OPEN a GUI in the form of a chest (player's inventory). This would help me in further work. Thanks in advance.

you can use ScreenOpenEvent

could you explain in more detail how I can use it?

Look at how ChestBlock.use() uses getMenuProvider()

Boilerplate:

If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you. For curseforge you need to enable the forge debug.log in its minecraft settings. You should also post your crash report if you have one.

If there is no error in the log file and you don't have a crash report then post the launcher_log.txt from the minecraft folder. Again for curseforge this will be in your curseforge/minecraft/Install

Large files should be posted to a file sharing site like https://gist.github.com  You should also read the support forum sticky post.

are you talking about a client side Screen or a server side Menu?

The server I play on periodically displays a chest in which you have to choose the right item (a kind of Anti-AFK).

I need to detect if he has opened the chest for me, and then select the item based on the name of the chest.
