    About

    External Tweaker is a companion tool for creating, managing, and editing CraftTweaker scripts and recipes, with both an in-game mod interface and an optional external program. It lets you open or delete scripts and keep multiple scripts open at once, and it can work with scripts created elsewhere, including scripts that use variables. The tool can retrieve lists of items, fluids, ore dictionary entries, and recipe functions from loaded mods, then help edit recipes for crafting tables, furnaces, and mod-provided recipe systems. Recipe, item, fluid, and ore dictionary data can be imported and exported separately, making it possible to reuse saved data when working in the external program without reopening Minecraft.

    Written from CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.7.10 to 1.12.2.

    Adds no new blocks, items or other content.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.7.10 to 1.12.2.

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

    What it can do on your computer

    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.
    Starts other programs
    It can start another program on your computer. It can open a web link or a file.

    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 4 latest files checked, last on 15 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.
      4 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.
      The internet, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    We found nothing it sends

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.7.10 to 1.12.2.

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    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 · All 4 files read
    • 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 4 files, for Minecraft 1.7.10 to 1.12.2. See each file in Releases

    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.
