About
AutoBuild helps players place large or repetitive structures by loading Minecraft schematics and building them automatically, while keeping the player in control of positioning and construction. It loads .schem and .litematic files and shows a transparent, live preview that can be moved, raised or lowered, rotated, flipped, adjusted for transparency, or filtered to hide selected blocks before construction begins. Players can build per block at a configurable rate, layer by layer, or instantly, and can pause, resume, stop, adjust speed, and undo recent steps or a full build history. For Survival builds, AutoBuild uses materials from the player’s inventory, lists required and missing materials, and can collect supplies from nearby chests, trapped chests, and barrels; an optional safety check helps prevent replacing existing blocks. The mod also includes a Selection Tool for exporting a chosen area as a schematic, which can be kept locally or published through AutoBuild’s community platform, where players can browse and load shared builds, upload creations, and maintain builder profiles. In multiplayer, separate build states and settings support multiple players, with the mod installed on both client and server.

No harmful code found
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. Only in its files for Fabric 1.21.1, 1.21.11 to 26.3.
- 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 1.21.1, 1.21.9, 1.21.11 to 26.3. 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.20 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 14 for recent versions. 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
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
- 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.

Sends unknown data
Sent to an address built while the game runs.
Only some of its files send unknown data.
We found this in its code, read without running it.
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 14 files, for recent Minecraft versions. 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.Unknown data
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
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.No AI content or AI features declared.
