Could you build this?

Partial A Spigot/Paper/Folia plugin with the basic check framework is vibe-codeable, but effective AI-based cheat detection needs labeled player-behavior data and tuned models, which vibe coding won't supply.

What it would actually take: Build a Java plugin on the Paper/Folia API that hooks movement, combat, and packet events, and respects Folia's regional threading. The hard part is the detection model: it needs a large labeled dataset of legitimate versus cheating player telemetry, feature engineering, and low-false-positive tuning across server types. That requires game-security and ML expertise plus access to real player data.
