How to Create a Minecraft Mod with AI
Go from idea to a working mod by describing what you want in plain English, generating a build, testing it, then iterating until it plays exactly right.
Create a new mod project
Open the Creator Hub and start a new mod generation.
Pick the platform you want (for example: Fabric for single-player, or a server plugin platform for multiplayer).
Describe your mod idea in plain English
Write a clear prompt describing what the mod should do, including exact numbers, names, and rules.
If you want a good structure, start with: goal, triggers, effects, and constraints.
Generate the mod
Start the generation and wait for the build to finish.
If the first result is close but not perfect, that's normal—you'll iterate in a later step.
Review the output and notes
Skim the generation notes and confirm the mod matches your intent.
Look for edge cases (multiplayer behavior, performance, item duplication, and any unintended loops).
Download and install the mod
Download the built mod artifact and install it like any other Minecraft mod or plugin for your chosen platform.
Test in a fresh world or separate server first to avoid impacting your main save.
Launch a test server to validate behavior
Spin up a disposable test environment and verify the mod loads without errors.
Try the core features, then intentionally try to break them (spam actions, relog, chunk reloads, and multiplayer interactions).
Iterate: write an improved prompt
Use what you learned in testing to tighten your prompt: add missing constraints, clarify names, and specify exact values.
If something was ambiguous, explicitly state the desired behavior for that scenario.
Regenerate and compare the new build
Generate again with your updated prompt and compare changes against the original behavior.
Repeat the loop until the mod plays the way you want.
Launch the improved build and ship
Run the improved build in a fresh test environment, then promote it to your real server or modpack once it's stable.
Keep notes on your final prompt so you can iterate later without losing context.
Ready to build your first mod?
Start with one small feature, test it, then iterate. That loop is how you ship something fun—and stable.
