    About

    Cactus is a customizable client-side toolkit that brings together quality-of-life, redstone, survival, creative-building, and mapmaking features, letting players enable and configure the modules they want. Its gameplay and building tools include fullbright, free-look, zoom, farm harvesting and replanting helpers, fluid markers, customizable block outlines, and redstone utilities such as a BUD-switch finder, automatic repeater settings, and redstone-powered blocks with specified signal strength. For creative work, it provides in-game NBT editing, armor-stand editing and previewing, map utilities, decorative heads, and tools for inspecting or copying block states. Players can tailor their interface with a HUD editor and elements for potion effects, keystrokes, armor, compass direction, item counts, block details, scoreboards, and images, as well as adjust visual details such as crosshairs, fire, shields, and GUI darkness. Other features include account and skin switching, capes and accessories, command macros, waypoint management, and an in-game screenshot viewer; configuration profiles can save settings for reuse or for selected servers. Cactus also helps players host worlds for others and set up locally hosted servers through a graphical interface, with support for preset or custom server software. Developers can extend the mod with addons that register modules, commands, HUD elements, content packs, configuration files, event hooks, and dependencies, while content packs can also manage core features or simple customizations.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    What it can do on your computer

    Uses your Minecraft account login
    It can use the login of your Minecraft account, for example to join a server. It can read the login token of your Minecraft account.Not a Warning: we read its code and found no login token sent anywhere but Mojang.
    Accepts connections from other computers
    It can accept connections from other computers. Found in the mod's own code and in Java-WebSocket, a library it includes.
    Uses folders outside the game
    It can read or write files outside your Minecraft folder, on the rest of your computer. Found: your user folder, the temporary files folder and your Downloads.
    Starts other programs
    It can start another program on your computer. It can start a Java program.
    Connects to the internet
    It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Found in the mod's own code and in Java-WebSocket, a library it includes. 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 · All 8 latest files checked, last on 21 Oct 2026
    • 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.
      8 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 7 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.
    • Accepts connections from other computers
      Runs a small web server.
    • Uses folders outside the game

    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.

    Privacy

    Sends your player ID, crash reports and unknown data, and uses your Minecraft login

    Sent to api.imgur.com, api.mclo.gs, api.minecraftservices.com, litterbox.catbox.moe, login.live.com, sessionserver.mojang.com, user.auth.xboxlive.com and xsts.auth.xboxlive.com.

    Only some of its files send your player ID and crash reports.

    We found this in its code, read without running it.

    The author declares on Modrinth that it sends crash reports or usage data unless you turn this off.

    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.

    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.
