Twitching Armor Stand
by JustS-js
Twitching Armor Stand lets viewers of a Twitch stream trigger actions on an armor stand in Minecraft through chat commands.
What it does
Viewers type commands such as hello, twerk, jump or clap in the chat of a stream, and the bound armor stand performs the matching emote. Entering a player name, or the name of an entity's nametag, makes the stand follow that target, and a wrong name stops the following. Each action stops the one before it, so a stand that jumps repeatedly keeps jumping until another command replaces it.
The mod has no built-in Twitch connection. It works together with the Armor Poser addon and the Twitch integration, and it can simulate a chat message from a named user, for example to test a command without a live stream. Installing the mods listed in the author notes is needed to play with it, and the game has to load with the mod dependencies present. The mod is client-side only, so servers do not need it and players join without installing it.
Twitching Armor Stand requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric for 1.21.10, where the latest file is 1.1 from 2026-01-28. It is open source under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
