1. Server Rules and Anti-Cheat Systems
Most public and competitive Minecraft servers strictly prohibit automated bots, macros, and AI-controlled agents under their terms of service. Running BOTCRAFT on external servers may result in permanent bans, IP blocks, or blacklisting by anti-cheat systems. Use BOTCRAFT exclusively on single-player worlds, local servers, or private servers where you have explicit permission.
2. API Key Security & Usage Costs
BOTCRAFT relies on external Large Language Model APIs (such as Google Gemini). You are responsible for keeping your API key confidential. Do not hardcode API keys into public repositories or share them with third parties. Additionally, keep track of API usage limits and potential costs incurred by automated query loops.
3. Autonomous Behavior & Unpredictability
LLMs non-deterministically generate responses based on context. Consequently, BOTCRAFT may make unexpected decisions, get stuck in terrain, discard items, or fail complex tasks. Always monitor the agent during execution and avoid running the bot near valuable in-game assets without backups.
4. System Performance and Latency
Running continuous pathfinding algorithms alongside API calls consumes CPU and network bandwidth. High latency or network packet loss may cause desynchronization between the bot and the Minecraft server.
