Overview

Aluer ServerGuard is a next-generation intelligent security system for Minecraft PaperMC servers. It employs a revolutionary Agent Architecture — a lightweight Paper plugin collects real-time data from inside the server process, while an external Spring Boot analysis engine runs independently. The two communicate via real-time bidirectional WebSocket.

Why Aluer ServerGuard?

Problem	Aluer Solution
Cheat clients rampant (Meteor Client etc.)	100% coverage of all 55 Meteor Client hack modules with millisecond-level detection
Traditional anti-cheats rely on rigid rules	AI + ML dual-layer: DeepSeek LLM semantic analysis + Isolation Forest/Shannon Entropy/FFT statistical detection
DDoS attacks crash servers	7-layer coordinated DDoS defense (SYN/UDP/ICMP/HTTP/Slowloris/MC protocol/amplification)
Server crashes when admin is offline	Kernel autonomy engine + SelfHealing orchestrator: auto-detect → analyze → execute → recover
Multiple security tools complex to manage	Single JAR deployment, Web console for all 135+ modules, in-game /aluer commands
Plugin mode invasive, impacts TPS	Agent architecture: plugin uses only ~50MB RAM, analysis engine runs separately

Core Capabilities

Capability	Description
Full Anti-Cheat	100% Meteor Client coverage — Combat/Movement/World/Player/Misc 55 modules
AI Decision Engine	DeepSeek LLM auto-analysis → defense strategy → auto-execution (ban/kick/whitelist/clearlag)
ML Behavioral Analysis	Isolation Forest anomaly detection + Time series prediction + Shannon Entropy profiling + FFT spectrum analysis
DDoS Multi-Layer Defense	SYN/UDP/ICMP/HTTP/Slowloris/MC Status/Login/Rcon/Query coordinated defense
Server Self-Healing	TPS < 12 or CPU > 92% or Memory > 95% auto-triggers recovery (backup → clear entities → throttle → whitelist → soft restart)
Dual-Mode	Agent Plugin mode (recommended, <1ms latency, 50K+/s) + External RCON mode (zero invasion)

FAQ

Agent vs External mode?

Agent Plugin mode is strongly recommended for production — sub-millisecond latency, 50K+ events/s, per-tick data precision, instant event cancellation, full 135+ module coverage. External mode for evaluation or plugin-free setups.

Is DeepSeek AI required?

No. Without DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, AI auto-disables and the system operates as rule engine + ML mode with full anti-cheat capability. AI adds intelligent root cause analysis, health reports, and autonomous defense generation.

Java version required?

Java 21+. Paper 1.21.1 API (class version 65) requires Java 21 runtime.

Supported Minecraft versions?

PaperMC 1.21.1. Can be adapted to Paper 1.20.5+ (needs Java 21). Paper 1.20.4 and below require Java 17 downgrade.

Will it false-ban legit players?

Layered design minimizes false bans: immediate interception only at physically impossible values, server-side multi-dimensional cross-validation, AI auto-execute requires ≥88% confidence, and SelfHealing/HostEnforcement default to dry-run mode.
