    About

    Special AI makes creature encounters more challenging by adding new behavior patterns to mobs. Monsters can break light sources and wooden doors, while normally passive mobs can fight back; the mod also adds mounting behavior and distinctive combat AIs. Some mobs may gain random extra abilities, and village behavior receives changes intended to make villages feel more lively. The features are highly configurable, with at least one configuration option for each feature.

    Written from CurseForge and the GitHub README . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes the game's code in 1 area: Mobs and their behaviorChanges 2 game code files in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act..

    Adds no new blocks, items or other content.

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

    Security

    No harmful code found

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

    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 5 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.
      5 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. 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, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    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 · Its one file 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 its one file, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases

    AI

    AI was used to make it

    The author writes that AI was used.

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history 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 · 5 places read

    Known conflicts

    These projects do not work together with Special AI: their authors or Special AI's author say so. If you install both, the game can crash or some features can stop working. Some of them do the same job as Special AI, so you only need one.
