9minecraftAPI Mod is a required library / API – it adds no blocks, items or gameplay of its own. Instead, it provides the shared code that many multiplatform mods are built on, so those mods can run on either major mod loader from a single codebase. If a mod on this site lists 9minecraftAPI (or the shared API) as a dependency, install this jar alongside it and it will work.
Features:
- The cross-platform API layer that dozens of multiplatform mods are built on.
- Lets one mod run on both loaders without separate downloads.
- Lightweight – no content, no world changes, no performance cost when idle.
- Detected automatically by any mod that requires the shared API (mod id
). - Available for both major mod loaders on Minecraft 26.2.
How to Use:
- Any mod that needs this API finds it on its own – there is nothing to switch on and no menu to open.
- Keep it in place for as long as the mod that needs it is in use; take it away and that mod stops starting.
- It registers no items, blocks or recipes, so an existing world plays exactly the same with it present.
- For multiplayer it belongs on the server and on every client that connects, in the same version.
