Awake API
by imsolum
Awake API is a Library mod for Fabric and Forge that lets players hold conversations with mobs in natural language through a large language model.
What it does
Awake API gives developers an API for connecting mobs to a large language model. A player types a message to a mob, the model produces a reply, and the mob can act on that reply by running commands that developers define in advance. The API also provides functions for managing player data and conversation state, and a server-side integration path so that the work happens on the server.
The mod is published only for 1.20.1, with a Fabric file dated 2024-07-24 at version 0.9.6-1.20.1 and a Forge file dated 2024-07-20 at version FORGE-0.9.5-1.20.1. It requires Fabric API on Fabric. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is under the Apache License 2.0 and is open source; a source code link and a wiki are available.
Key features
Conversations with mobs
Players talk to mobs in plain language, and the model's replies appear in the chat.
Developer-defined commands
Mobs can run custom commands that developers write, so an AI reply can change the game world.
Custom AI functions
The API registers custom AI functions, manages conversations and handles the responses the model returns.
Server-side utilities
Helper functions for player data and AI interactions are written for server-side use.

Use cases
Story-driven characters
A developer can give a villager a personality and let it respond to players with commands that alter the world around it.

Pets or companions can answer questions and carry out actions chosen through the conversation.
Who it’s for: Mod developers who want to build language-driven mobs, and server owners who host such mods. Players join with the same mod installed as the server.
