    About

    Villager Workers extends Recruits with hireable villagers who take on jobs at player-placed Work Areas, automating production and logistics around a base or village. Workers include farmers who till, plant, and harvest chosen crops; lumberjacks who plant and fell trees; fishermen; animal farmers who breed and manage livestock; and miners who excavate, plug water and lava, and place torches when needed. Builders construct saved or self-scanned structures using blocks from storage, while chefs cook food and merchants trade with players and villagers through stocked Markets. Couriers follow Recruits routes to move specified items between nearby chests, storage areas, markets, and kitchens, with waypoint actions for taking, putting, and waiting. Work Areas draw needed materials from nearby Storage Areas and return their output there, with access controls that can separate storage by worker type or faction. Workers also use Recruits systems for ownership, factions, morale, payment, upkeep, and sieges, and can be given a home where sleeping restores health and morale.

    Security

    No harmful code found

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

    What it can do on your computer

    Creates settings files
    The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.

    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 · The latest file checked, last on 16 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. 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
    • 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.
      The internet, folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
    • Modrinth and CurseForgeA release with a different file on Modrinth and on CurseForge, whose code is not the same. Each file is checked on its own. Nothing is blocked.
      Minecraft 1.18.2 · Forge · release 1.7.8 · 3 May 2024: Modrinth workers-1.18.2-1.7.8.jar, CurseForge workers-1.18.2-1.7.8.jar. 1 class changed, in com.talhanation.workers.entities.ai: MinerAI.
      code differs in 1 release

    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
    • 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.
