FakeTab AI is an enterprise-grade Paper/Spigot/Purpur plugin that adds ultra-realistic, AI-driven and smart-fallback fake players to your server's TAB list. Designed for server owners who want a vibrant, living community without sacrificing performance or needing expensive API setups.

✨ Next-Gen Simulation & Zero-Setup AI

• 🧠 Zero-Setup Smart Offline Engine: Works immediately out-of-the-box with zero API keys required! If AI keys are blank or offline, built-in contextual fallback engines dynamically handle greetings, Lifesteal/PvP chatter, mining callouts, trading, and DMs.
• 🌐 Multi-Provider AI Routing: Seamlessly integrates Google Gemini, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, and Groq with automated request tiering, quota failover, and rate-limit auto-cooldown.
• 🧠 Conversational & Friendship Memory: Fake players remember past interactions with individual real players, forming natural friendships and contextual replies over time.
• 💬 Human-Like Typing & Slang Engine: Simulates authentic typing latency, natural Indian Hinglish / English slang, and realistic human typing variations.

🎨 Personas, Skins & Permissions

• ⚡ 1-Click Bulk Generator (/faketab autogen): Generate up to 100 realistic fake players in seconds with themed presets (indian, pvp, global).
• 🎛️ Interactive Multi-Page GUI (/faketab gui): Full visual dashboard with page navigation, one-click toggle, quick force-speak, and batch connect/disconnect actions.
• 🎭 Custom Skin Caching & Mojang Fallback: Assign any Minecraft skin independently of display names (/faketab setskin). Textures are persistently cached in SQLite with Mojang API fallback to prevent 429 rate limits.
• 🛡️ Resilient Permissions (LuckPerms & Vault): Native LuckPerms weight & prefix synchronization, with automatic graceful fallback to Vault and standalone config.yml rank sorting.

⚙️ Advanced Server & Command Integration

• ⚡ Zero-Entity Network Level: Created purely via PacketEvents protocol packets (PlayerInfoUpdate). Zero entities in the world, zero tick overhead, and 100% lag-free.
• 📡 Multiplayer Server List Ping Spoofing: Accurately includes online fake players in the server's ping count and multiplayer hover player sample.
• 🔄 Realistic Dynamic Cycles: Automated schedule manager that connects and disconnects fake players organically over configurable hour intervals.
• 🎯 Command Interceptions: Intercepts /msg, /tell, /w, /tpa, /tpahere, /seen, /list, and /lb directed at fake players with realistic delayed replies.
