Want to see the actual Minecraft menus?
Reference screenshots from Minecraft’s official Java joining guide. Menus may look a little different in your version. These are menu references, not screenshots of this server.
Java Edition is the one you want. Bedrock Edition on phones, consoles or “Minecraft for Windows” cannot join this server directly.
02 / MEET YOUR ASSISTANT
AN IDEA.
A MESSAGE.
A START.
Talk to the AI right inside Minecraft.
Press T, type /ai followed by your request, then press Enter. Use normal words. Describe what you want, where you want it, and any details that matter.
- Ask it to build, change the world or explain something.
- See acknowledgements, useful progress and replies in chat.
- Add a detail while it works. It keeps going.
Your replies appear in your game chat.
Conversations are also published in the public AI history. You can also inspect AI commands and results. World changes can affect everyone.
SEE HOW THE CONVERSATION WORKSINTERACTIVE EXAMPLE
DAVE’S HOUSEJAVA EDITION
An example conversation, not a live AI chat. Actual wording and timing will vary.
01Ask
The AI receives your message.
02Follow along
Read its replies and progress.
03Keep shaping it
Add details while it works.
03 / GIVE IT SOMETHING TO DO
START WITH THIS.
Copy a prompt, open game chat and paste it. Small, specific requests are a good place to start.
WORLD
Catch the sunrise.
Time changes apply to the whole world.
/ai make it sunriseLEARN
Figure something out.
Ask for an explanation you can build from.
/ai explain how to build a simple item sorterFOLLOW UP
One more detail.
Send this while your cabin is being built.
/ai add a glass roof to that cabin tooCHECK IN
How’s it going?
A question does not cancel the current task.
/ai how is it going?STOP
You’re in control.
Stop the current task. This does not undo changes already made.
/ai stopMake your request clear.“Build a house” leaves a lot open. “Build a small oak house on this empty patch, with two floors and a glass roof” gives the AI something useful to work with.
05 / A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
STUCK?
START HERE.
You don’t need to know server commands to get started. That’s what the conversation is for.
Minecraft’s official joining guideDo I need to install anything extra?
No. Use Minecraft Java Edition 26.3 on your computer. The assistant runs on the server and replies in normal game chat. You do not need Fabric, a client mod, a separate AI account or an API key.
Is there a separate login for this server?
No. Sign in through your normal Minecraft Launcher account, then join using the server address. This website does not ask for your Minecraft password.
Why does it say “incompatible version”?
The server currently runs Java 26.3. In the Launcher, open Installations and choose that release. A different release, snapshot or Bedrock Edition may not connect.
The server won’t connect. What should I check?
Check that you’re using Java Edition and the address is exactly minecraft.daveshouse.xyz, with no spaces or https://. If those are right, the server may be restarting or the host computer may be asleep. Ask Dave to check. If multiplayer is disabled for your account, review your Microsoft/Xbox account’s multiplayer settings with whoever manages the account.
Will a new message interrupt or cancel my task?
A follow-up message goes into your current conversation. The AI should answer, use the new detail and continue the task. Use /ai stop to explicitly cancel ongoing work. Stopping does not roll back changes it has already made.
Who can read my AI conversation?
Replies appear only in your game chat, but your requests and the AI’s replies, progress, commands and results are also visible to anyone on the public history page. Your /ai messages and relevant game context are sent to the AI service. Ordinary player chat is not forwarded or published here. Don’t include passwords or personal details.
What if the AI is slow or I need to reconnect?
The first connection and larger tasks can take a little while. Read the progress messages rather than sending the same request repeatedly. You can ask /ai how is it going?. Your conversation is associated with your player account and normally continues when you rejoin; reconnecting is not a request to stop.
Can it do more than these examples?
Yes. It has access to Minecraft commands and can work on builds, world settings and server-side gameplay features. Describe the result you want. Some changes may require a restart and rejoin; it should tell you before that happens. A request is not a guarantee that every idea is possible.
THE NEXT BIT HAPPENS IN GAME.
SEE YOU IN THERE.
