Padmaster AI Assistant 0.2.0-beta
What it is
A chat panel inside LaunchBox, powered by your own AI subscription. Ask about your games, find a manual, check which emulator a game uses, or have it build a playlist from your library. Type or use the microphone. This is an early test release.
Requirements
- Windows.
- LaunchBox 14.1.x only (14.2 will refuse the Plugin Manager part until an update).
- Claude Code or Codex CLI installed and signed in with your own subscription. No API keys: API-key and Console sign-ins are refused, and the plugin stores no key.
Install
- Close LaunchBox.
- Download
Padmaster-AI-Assistant-0.2.0-beta.zipand unzip it into your LaunchBox folder. It addsPlugins\PadMaster,Local\Plugins\Padmaster AI Assistantand a README.md at the LaunchBox root. - Start LaunchBox. Nothing shows yet; that is by design.
- Tools > Manage > Plugins > Padmaster AI Assistant > Configure, tick Enable, press Save.
- In the panel, choose Claude Code or Codex under Your AI and click Sign in if asked.
Known limits
- No deletion, by design: removing games, playlists, platforms, emulators or anything else is refused inside the plugin, and no setting turns it on. The one exception is taking games out of a playlist.
- Bulk guard: bulk rewrites, and taking more than 20 games out of a playlist at once, wait for your Yes in the panel (threshold and on/off in Configure). It checks one change at a time.
- Other changes are real and happen without a confirmation dialog; make a LaunchBox backup first.
- Codex uses its default model and cannot read emulator configurations or manual files.
- The right panel needs a selected game; otherwise a floating window appears.
- Slash commands are not available. Replies may take a while.
- Automatic controller mapping is not built yet.
- Beta: report bugs in GitHub issues with
Plugins\PadMaster\padmaster.logattached (read it first; never sharemcp.json).
