AIBotChat

# Sterra AIBotChat - Minecraft AI Assistant Plugin AIBotChat is a Spigot/Paper plugin that seamlessly integrates an AI-powered chat assistant into your Minecraft server, allowing players to ask questions directly in-game. Powered by local AI technology, it provides helpful responses for server rules, gameplay tips, or custom lore without causing any server lag. ## Key Features - **Character-Based AI**: Customize the AI's personality and knowledge base for your server. - **In-Game Chat Integration**: Players use simple commands like `/ai <question>` to interact. - **Async Processing**: Ensures smooth server performance during AI requests. - **Cooldown System**: Prevents spam and protects your API resources. - **Configurable Settings**: Easily adjust API endpoints, response length, creativity, and more via config.yml. ## Requirements To get AIBotChat running, **text-generation-webui is absolutely essential**. This open-source tool must be installed and running locally with the API enabled. Additionally, **a model must be loaded** in text-generation-webui for the AI to generate responses—without a loaded model, the plugin won't function. ## Setup Guide 1. Install and start text-generation-webui with API support (e.g., `python server.py --api --listen`). 2. In text-generation-webui's Character tab, create or edit a character. **In the character's context, you can input specific information about your Minecraft server** (e.g., rules, commands, or custom lore) to tailor the AI's responses. 3. Save the character and note its exact name. 4. Build and install the plugin JAR on your Spigot/Paper server (Minecraft 1.20+, Java 17+). 5. In the plugin's `config.yml`, set the `character` field to your saved character's name. 6. Reload the config file with `/aireload` then the character you selected should answer your questions.
