Trickster LISP
by TheJebForge
Trickster LISP lets players write Trickster spells in LISP code, so a spell can be built as text rather than assembled by hand.
What it does
The mod works as a transpiler for the Trickster spell system: a spell written in LISP is converted into a Trickster spell, and the conversion can be run back the other way, so a spell can be read as LISP again. Fragments can be created directly, without going through a Mirror Evaluation step. Macros can be defined to shorten repeated code.
Trickster LISP requires the Trickster mod, which provides the spell system the transpiler targets. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, with 1.1.6 as the latest file, released on 2025-11-11. The code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so it is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

A player who prefers writing code over assembling spells in the Trickster interface can write the spell in LISP and convert it.
Reusing spell patterns
Macros let a player name a common sequence once and call it in several spells.
Who it’s for: Players who already use Trickster and want to write or read its spells as LISP code. The mod adds nothing for players who do not use the Trickster spell system.
