Aegis AntiCheat

What Aegis AntiCheat is
Aegis AntiCheat is free, self-hosted software for detecting cheating on modern Minecraft servers. It supports Paper and Folia, with Minecraft 1.21.11 and plugin API version 1.21 listed. The system analyzes packets asynchronously and validates game physics. Its checks cover combat exploits such as Reach, Killaura, and AutoClicker, plus movement hacks including Fly, Speed, Step, VerticalDelta, Timer, NoFall, and Jesus. Rotation and BadPackets are listed packet and protocol checks. Administrators use `/aegis` or `/ac`, which requires the `aegis.command` permission. Players can submit appeals with `/appeal <evidenceID> <reason>`. The README points users to the project’s Discord for setup, configuration, questions, and support. Source builds use `./gradlew build`, and the project uses the BSD-3-Clause license. Aegis is presented as a detection system with management and appeal commands.
