Auto Mirror stands out in the Blender extensions library as a former Blender 4.1 bundled add-on carried forward for 4.2 LTS and newer, now offered as-is with limited support.
Auto Mirror brings fast cutting and mirroring for mesh to Blender. The add-on adds a dedicated panel, reachable from View 3D → Sidebar → Edit tab → AutoMirror, keeping its controls inside the 3D View.
Originally written by Lapineige, Auto Mirror was part of Blender 4.1's bundled add-ons. It is now offered as-is with limited support, and version 2.5.4 carries no changelog for this release. The extension requires no special permissions, and the small download installs by drag and drop or from disk.
On the Blender extensions platform it sits at rank 12, with more than 275,000 downloads and a 5.0 rating across 10 reviews. It is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer, and is distributed under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later. This catalog lists it as free.

Auto Mirror appears under View 3D → Sidebar → Edit tab → AutoMirror as a dedicated panel.

The panel keeps these tools inside the 3D View. If you don't see the Sidebar, toggle it open in the viewport first, then look under the Edit tab for the AutoMirror entry.
