Chatting with AI

How to talk to your AI assistant — from the web dashboard or in Minecraft chat, with queuing, interrupts, and streaming responses

Chatting with AI

You can talk to your AI assistant in three ways:

Web Dashboard

Click your server on the dashboard to open the AI Chat tab. Full streaming with tool details and conversation history.

AI Mode

Type /ai in Minecraft to toggle AI mode. Every message goes to the AI.

Prefix Mode

Prefix any Minecraft chat message with AI> to send it to the AI.

Web Dashboard Chat

The Chat tab on your server’s dashboard page gives you a rich chat interface:

• Streaming responses — see text appear in real time as the AI works
• Tool call details — expandable panels show exactly what commands were run (e.g., mc-cmd list)
• Markdown rendering — tables, code blocks, headers, and links rendered properly
• Conversation history — the right sidebar shows all past conversations, click to resume any
• Session persistence — conversations survive server restarts

The dashboard chat is especially useful for complex tasks where you want to see tool execution details and formatted output. In-game chat is better for quick commands while playing.

In-Game Chat

Two Modes

AI Mode (Recommended)

Toggle AI mode with the /ai command. When enabled, every chat message you type is sent to the AI automatically.

/ai                          <- Turn on AI mode
build me a house             <- AI receives this
now add a pool               <- AI receives this too
make it bigger               <- AI remembers context
/ai                          <- Turn off AI mode
regular chat message         <- Goes to normal Minecraft chat

You will see a confirmation message:

• Green text: “AI chat mode enabled. All your messages will be sent to AI.”
• Red text: “AI chat mode disabled. Use ‘AI>’ prefix or /ai to enable.”

Slash commands (like /gamemode creative or /tp) still work normally while AI mode is on. Only regular chat messages are forwarded to the AI.

Prefix Mode

Without AI mode enabled, prefix any message with AI> to send it to the AI:

AI> give me 64 diamonds
AI> what's the server TPS?
AI> install a shop plugin

Messages without the prefix go to normal Minecraft chat. This is ideal when you are playing with others and want to talk to the AI only occasionally.

While the AI Is Working

When you send a message, the AI starts processing immediately. Here is what you see:

What You See	Where	Meaning
”AI is thinking…”	Action bar (above hotbar)	The AI is planning its response
[AI Tool] Bash	Chat	The AI is running a command
”Running Bash…”	Action bar	A tool is actively executing
[AI] response text	Chat	The AI’s reply
[AI] Completed (3.2s)	Chat	Task finished, with elapsed time

---

Queuing and Interrupting

You can send additional messages while the AI is still working on a previous request.

Queue a Follow-Up

Type your next request normally. It is added to the queue and processed after the current task finishes.

give me a diamond sword             <- AI starts working on this
and enchant it with sharpness 5     <- Queued: "Got it, I'll do that next."
also give me a shield               <- Also queued

The AI processes queued messages in order.

Interrupt and Redirect

Start your message with an interrupt word to cancel the current task and start a new one:

build me a castle at spawn          <- AI starts building
stop, make me creative instead      <- Cancels castle, switches gamemode

Recognized interrupt words: stop, cancel, no no, nevermind, forget it, instead, nvm

Three Ways to Cancel

1. Click [Cancel] — a clickable link shown in chat when the AI starts processing
2. Type /ai cancel — works at any time
3. Say an interrupt word — “stop”, “cancel”, “nevermind”, etc.

After cancelling, you can immediately send a new request.

Tips for Great Results

Be specific about what you want

The more detail you give, the better the result:

-- Vague (AI has to guess)
make something cool

-- Specific (AI knows exactly what to build)
build a medieval castle at spawn with a moat, drawbridge, and four corner towers

-- Vague (AI does not know which script or what is wrong)
fix it

-- Specific (AI can find and fix the problem)
the /kit command is not giving diamond armor, fix the kit script

Use plain natural language

You do not need to know Minecraft commands, Skript syntax, or server admin terminology. Just describe what you want in everyday words:

make it always daytime
give everyone on the server 10 levels
when a player joins, teleport them to spawn and give them a starter kit
stop it from raining

Ask for complex multi-step tasks

The AI handles tasks that involve many steps:

create a PvP arena with kit selection, score tracking, and a 5 minute timer
install WorldEdit and build a spawn platform with shops around it
set up a survival server with keep inventory, no mob griefing, and starter kits

The AI plans out the steps, executes them in order, and reports back.

Build iteratively

You do not have to get everything right in one message. The AI remembers context within a session:

build a shop                 -> AI builds a shop
make it bigger               -> AI knows you mean the shop
add a sign that says "VIP"   -> Still in context
now add a second floor       -> Continues building on the same shop

Starting simple and adding features step by step often produces better results than one massive request.

Ask the AI to explain what it did

If you want to understand how something works:

show me the skript you wrote for the kit system
explain how the welcome message script works
what plugins are installed and what do they do?

Limitations

Keep these limitations in mind when chatting with the AI:

• Text-only responses — Minecraft chat does not support images, formatting beyond color codes, or rich media. Long responses may be split across multiple messages.
• No screen vision — the AI cannot see your screen or what you are looking at. However, it can determine your position using teleport commands with relative coordinates, and can check your inventory via server commands.
• No emojis — emojis can crash Minecraft clients, so the AI avoids them entirely.
• Processing time — simple commands complete in seconds, but complex tasks (writing scripts, installing plugins, building structures) can take 30-60 seconds.
• Session context — the AI remembers your conversation within a session. If the server restarts or you reconnect, it starts fresh.
