Contents and history are public. Only spawn locations appear on the map. Owner names are labels chosen when a chest is added.

Recording starts after registration when the chest is loaded. Broken chests keep their history; a break does not identify who picked up dropped items. Gaps and unattributed changes stay marked.

The tracker re-reads a chest whenever it loads again, for example after a server restart. Those automatic checks move no items and are kept out of the default view; see them under Activity → Automatic checks.
