About
Advanced Macros is a Lua scripting mod for automating player actions with scripts triggered by game events, keyboard keys, or mouse buttons. Scripts can react to events such as joining or leaving a world, chat, changes in health or hunger, weather, death, respawning, item durability, and XP, and key bindings can run on key press, release, or both. Macros can inspect world and player information, including nearby or connected players, weather and time, biome details, light levels, blocks, entities, and inventory, as well as control movement, inventory actions, and chat input or filtering. The mod includes a syntax-highlighting script editor, readable table logging, editable bindings, and multiple profiles that can be switched manually or from scripts. Scripts can also create custom interfaces and HUDs: 2D elements include text, rectangles, boxes, and images, while 3D displays can show blocks, text, and panes; blocks can be moved, resized, retextured, made translucent to view through, or rotated. Additional scripting capabilities include playing and controlling sounds, reading and writing files, working with images and screenshots, making HTTP requests, using MIDI devices, and prompting the user for input. The editor and scripting tools support practical in-game creations such as a compass pointing toward a chosen location, building guides, and displayed selections made with world-edit commands.

No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.11.2 to 1.20.4.
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Starts other programs
- It can start another program on your computer, for example to open a link in your browser. Only in its files for Fabric 1.20.4; NeoForge 1.20.4; Forge 1.12.2 to 1.15.2; 1.12 to 1.12.2.
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them. Only in its files for Fabric 1.20.4; NeoForge 1.20.4; Forge 1.12.2 to 1.15.2; 1.12 to 1.12.2.
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Only in its files for Fabric 1.20.4; NeoForge 1.20.4; Forge 1.12.2 to 1.15.2; 1.12 to 1.12.2. See Privacy
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.9 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
We found nothing it sends about you
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.11.2 to 1.20.4.
We read its code without running it: it contacts 1 web address while you play.
Like any connection, each address it contacts sees your IP address.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of all 9 files, for Minecraft 1.11.2 to 1.20.4. See each file in Releases
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Purpose not known.
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds and found none.
We have not read its code history yet.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Code historyThe public code on GitHub: who made each change, credit lines such as "Co-authored-by", and its files.Not read yet
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found2 of 40 changelogs read
- Its filesFiles that AI coding tools leave behind (like AGENTS.md), and the texts inside the files you download.Nothing found
- Images in its filesHidden data in the images of the files you download, where AI image tools write their name and settings.Nothing found53 images read
- Sounds in its filesThe tags of the sound files in the files you download, where some AI music tools write their name.Nothing found14 sounds read
- Code of the modThe code and files of the mod, read without running it: addresses of AI services, AI libraries, AI model files and a place for your own AI key.No AI service, AI library or AI model file1,011 code files read
