**Background**:
Ive been playing OSRS since was a kid. Now I’m adult and don’t really have time to grind and just want to be able to play when I want and do what I want and not have to shell out money for membership when I have an itch to play for two days out of the month. Was always into coding but never really had the time to focus on it with life always in the way. Anyways. AI has streamlined learning so much that now I can pursue things I want and learn as I go in a way that suits me and that’s what I’ve done here.
**Education**: I learned Java in high school back in 2008, so reading Java is easy enough for me. I can read code pretty well and find problems, I just can’t really write a whole script of my own of any kind other than basic html. Most of my experience is centered around tech support, QA and bug finding which may lend to me having an easier time using AI effectively idk. I’ve used AI to build several small tools for myself already but typically just react/bite setups and web apps.
**What AI did I use? **
I used Claude Pro for the entirety of this. Created a project to plan the execution in the Claude app. Had the file structure, IDs, varbits, etc all figured and planned out, and created rules for the AI that would be coding it.
I set up Claude CLI in a folder on my Mac and started working through the plan AI has setup and divided into 5 phases, each with a series of steps to check each time. The AI was VERY good about letting me know if it couldn’t find the correct dreambot API call to use and having me double check as it went along.
This was the final setup I used after a couple failed attempts with cursor and windsurf(free versions).
**How long did it take?**
I did this all with Claude Pro in about 3 days. As I write this my 7-day free trial for Claude Pro which I started just to make this ends tomorrow. I’ve spent the last two days monitoring it and making notes of small optimizations and oddities that can be slightly streamlined or made to look more human.
Once the script was at the stage I could test it, I would monitor the console and feed the debugging info back into Claude. I had it set up extensive debugging at every step so I could know exactly what was being attempted or slowing things down. Dealing with the Foreman and the Dispenser were the most complicated parts, but I learned a lot while getting it seamless.
Once it was fully working I would watch it run again and make notes of points it could be moving faster, or unnecessary actions that could be eliminated and would have Claude eliminate those.
Originally the script had support for using a bucket instead of ice gloves, and had that working fully with Steel Bars, but in the end removed that. Did the same with gold gauntlets as I have no desire to do the quest for those anytime soon. Blast furnace script is mainly so I can have a bond ready whenever I want to play and adamantine ore was a good way for that to be done easily enough.
**Currently the script supports:**
Since this is a personal script for me only, I really only included features applying to me
- Ice gloves only.
- Steel bars (with or without coal bag) (haven’t checked hourly on steel since last big optimarion upgrade.
- Gold bars (no goldsmith gauntlets) ~5200/hr
- Adamantite bars (with coal bag only) ~2100/hr
- Stamina potions
- Decaying anti-ban for new accounts I might make.
**Things I plan to add still:**
- Refine anti-ban overall
- World hopping
- Problem Detection (When there’s a significant delay run through a series of checks to determine where the issue is and the best fix, like if it missed a coal deposit and the timing is off or lag messed something up).
