Features

Feature Description
Macro files Keys, mouse buttons, chat, commands, loops, waits, keybinds, cycles
Pathfinding A* walking to coordinates. Jumps gaps, climbs, breaks through blocks, avoids cliffs and hazards
Precise locks auto goto / auto look snap back the instant you drift
No-look pathing Walk somewhere while your camera stays free, or locked on a fixed view
Free camera F6 detaches your view so you can watch the bot from behind or fly around it freely, with wall collision and smoothing
Second camera A real second render of the world from the bot's aim, shown as an inset
Attacking Find, chase and kill mobs by name or category, with spam or crit mode
Following Follow any mob or player as it moves
In-game macro editor Create, edit and reorder macros from chat, no file juggling
Automatic tool selection Equips the right tool for whatever it is breaking, scored the way Baritone does, and puts yours back afterwards
Getting out of a cave /helm go-up pillars to the overworld, and steers around lava and water instead of balking under it
Tunnelling /helm tunnelforward mines a tunnel ahead at the size you are already in, and stops at a fall, lava or water
Farming /helm farm harvests ripe crops, collects the drops and replants from seed or produce
Biome and structure search /helm lookfor walks you to the nearest biome, or locates a structure and walks you there
Automatic eating /helm autoeat eats before you starve, off by default, with a food buffer and hurt-aware thresholds
Doors and torches Opens doors in the way, shuts them behind, and lights tunnels as it digs
Debug tooling Path status, position, chunk cache inspection and live path rendering

Installation

  1. Install Fabric Loader 0.19.3+ for Minecraft 26.2.
  2. Install Java 25. Required by 26.2, older versions will not start the game.
  3. Place helm-26.2-2.5.6.jar and fabric-api-0.161.0+26.2.jar in .minecraft/mods/.
  4. Launch the Fabric 26.2 profile and run /helm in game.

Quick Start

Create macros/test.macro inside .minecraft/mods/:

goto 100 70 200
look at 153.5 / 14.2
hold left, wait 5s, release left
goto 0 70 0
attack zombie

Run it with /helm macro load test. The macros/ folder is created automatically on the first /helm run.
