An Instance Is a Description, Not a Folder Copy

Polymerium describes your game setup with a lightweight profile.json — version, loader, mod list. Instances are built on demand from a shared cache using symlinks. No files are copied. That means zero duplication, instant modpack switching, and Git-friendly version control.

profile.json
{
  "version": "1.21.4",
  "loader": { "type": "fabric", "version": "0.16.9" },
  "modloader": true,
  "packages": [
    "modrinth:sodium",
    "modrinth:iris",
    "modrinth:fabric-api"
  ]
}

Built for Efficiency

Zero Duplication

Each mod file stored once, symlinked everywhere. Save 60–80% disk space.

Instant Switching

Change modpacks in seconds, not minutes. No file copying needed.

Snapshots

Save, restore, and diff entire game states. Experiment safely.

Git-Friendly Modpacks

Instance = one JSON file. Version control your modpack development.

CLI + MCP Mode

30+ commands for automation. Let AI agents manage your instances.

Privacy First

No ads, no telemetry, no data collection. Open source (MIT).
