Minecraft Server Status & Players

Minecraft Server Status & Players MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Minecraft live infrastructure as an MCP: Java + Bedrock server status (player counts, MOTD, versions), player profile/UUID lookup, skin renders and the official 910-version Mojang manifest — keyless.

7 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Minecraft's live multiplayer infrastructure as a single MCP server — the world's best-selling game, monitored through its public status services.

What you can do

  • Server status (Java + Bedrock) — ping any server: online flag, players online/max, clean MOTD, protocol version, SRV resolution, even Forge mod lists when exposed (2b2t: 1226 players, CubeCraft: 1600+)
  • Player profiles — resolve username ⇄ UUID via Mojang, check premium status, get skin render URLs (avatar, helm, 3D head, body)
  • Version intelligence — the full official Mojang manifest: 910 versions (releases, snapshots, old_beta/alpha) with types and release dates — mod/plugin compatibility answers
  • Server comparisons — ping up to 8 servers at once, auto-detecting Java vs Bedrock, ranked by population

Why it matters

Server status is the heartbeat of Minecraft culture: "is 2b2t up?", "how many people are on Hypixel right now?", "does this server support 1.21?" — answered with live data, not stale screenshots.

Who is this for?

Server admins, Discord bot builders, YouTubers, community moderators, hosting providers and AI agents that monitor or report on Minecraft multiplayer.

7 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

get_java_server_status

io: online flag, players online/max, clean MOTD text, protocol version, SRV record resolution, Forge/Modded mod list when exposed. Works with hostnames (play.cubecraft.net, 2b2t.org) or IPs. For "is this server up and how many players are on?". Check a Minecraft JAVA server live status: online state, player count, version, MOTD

get_player_skins

Combine with lookup_player for display cards. No fetch needed — the URLs are embeddable images. Get skin/head render URLs for a Minecraft player (avatar, helm, body, isometric)

list_game_versions

Essential for mod/plugin compatibility checks ("does X support 1.21.4?"). List Minecraft game versions from the official Mojang manifest (910+ releases and snapshots)

lookup_player

Returns the canonical profile id and name. Useful before rendering skins or checking if a premium username exists. Resolve a Minecraft player profile by username OR UUID (id, name, textures availability)

compare_servers

For "which server has more players right now?" and uptime spot-checks. Compare multiple Minecraft servers side by side (player counts, versions, online state)

get_bedrock_server_status

io): online flag, players online/max, gamemode (Survival/Creative), version name and protocol. The Hive, Lifeboat, CubeCraft-Bedrock and Realms-alternatives use Bedrock. Note the platform: many big servers run both Java AND Bedrock. Check a Minecraft BEDROCK server live status: players, version, gamemode

get_version_details

Get full details of one Minecraft version: type, release date and JSON manifest URL

📊 **Server population ranking (live)** 1. 🟢 The Hive (Bedrock) — 23,204 players 2. 🟢 CubeCraft (Java) — 1,616 players 3. ⚫ Hypixel — offline from here / rate-limited Bedrock servers dominate raw player counts — The Hive alone outnumbers most Java networks.

What's the latest Minecraft snapshot and when did 1.21.4 release?

🗂️ **Mojang version manifest** Latest release: 26.2 · Latest snapshot: 26.3-pre-2 (2026-09-04) 1.21.4: released as a full release — exact date pulled from the manifest. 910 versions tracked since old_alpha. Need the JSON manifest URL for your launcher?

No. mcstatus.io, the Mojang profile API and the piston-meta version manifest are all public — no authentication anywhere in this MCP.
