    About

    A Job for the Mage is a narrative-driven adventure modpack in which you play a University of Magic graduate tasked with finding the source of corruption and saving the world, after a final-exam mishap involving the Ender Dragon and chicken feed. More than 80 quests guide you through the included mods and multiple dimensions while unfolding the humorous story of a young mage discovering their destiny. Progression is designed to be fast with minimal grinding: ProjectE and Avaritia help ease resource concerns so you can focus on exploration and boss fights. The quest experience is provided through a Better Questing book, and the quests and plot are complete.

    No harmful code found in the mods we checked

    We checked 130 of its 131 mods, without running them.

    We have not checked the files in the pack itself yet (settings, scripts).

    Why we show this: a modpack installs the files of its mods, and each mod runs on your computer like any program. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: a modpack has no grade of its own, and each mod's result counts in that mod's grade.

    Why we show this: a modpack runs the code of its mods, and 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

    AI used in 4 of the 59 mods we checked

    We found an AI tool in them, or their authors declared AI content.

    72 mods are not checked yet.

    Just Enough Items (JEI)Claude CodeWaystonesClaude CodeBotaniaClaude CodeReborn CoreCursor

    No sign so far that AI was used to make the pack itself

    We looked for AI tools in its texts and found none.

    We have not read its files and images yet.

    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.
