Sterra AIBotChat - Minecraft AI Assistant Plugin
AIBotChat is a Spigot/Paper plugin that seamlessly integrates an AI-powered chat assistant into your Minecraft server, allowing players to ask questions directly in-game. Powered by local AI technology, it provides helpful responses for server rules, gameplay tips, or custom lore without causing any server lag.
Key Features
- Character-Based AI: Customize the AI's personality and knowledge base for your server.
- In-Game Chat Integration: Players use simple commands like
/ai <question>to interact. - Async Processing: Ensures smooth server performance during AI requests.
- Cooldown System: Prevents spam and protects your API resources.
- Configurable Settings: Easily adjust API endpoints, response length, creativity, and more via config.yml.
Requirements
To get AIBotChat running, text-generation-webui is absolutely essential. This open-source tool must be installed and running locally with the API enabled. Additionally, a model must be loaded in text-generation-webui for the AI to generate responses—without a loaded model, the plugin won't function.
Setup Guide
- Install and start text-generation-webui with API support (e.g.,
python server.py --api --listen). - In text-generation-webui's Character tab, create or edit a character. In the character's context, you can input specific information about your Minecraft server (e.g., rules, commands, or custom lore) to tailor the AI's responses.
- Save the character and note its exact name.
- Build and install the plugin JAR on your Spigot/Paper server (Minecraft 1.20+, Java 17+).
- In the plugin's
config.yml, set thecharacterfield to your saved character's name. - Reload the config file with
/aireloadthen the character you selected should answer your questions.
