Minecraft RCON MCP Server
Connects AI agents to Minecraft servers via RCON to execute commands, monitor logs, and perform read-only SQLite database queries. It is specifically designed to facilitate AI-assisted plugin development, live debugging, and automated testing workflows.

⛏️ Minecraft RCON MCP Server
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects AI agents to Minecraft servers through RCON. Execute commands, monitor logs, query databases, and check plugin health — all from your AI coding assistant.
Built and battle-tested during real AI-assisted Minecraft plugin development.
Features
- RCON Command Execution — Run any server command with automatic reconnection on failure
- Command + Log Capture — Execute a command and capture the server log output that follows (unique and powerful for plugin debugging)
- Server Log Reading — Tail the latest server log
- Filtered Log Monitoring — Read logs by configurable prefix (e.g.
[TEST],[DEBUG]) with incremental position tracking for efficient polling - SQLite Database Queries — Safe read-only SELECT queries against plugin databases, with write-operation blocking
- Plugin Health Checks — Combined RCON connectivity + error log scan + database status in one call
Quick Start
1. Install
# From PyPI (when published)
pip install minecraft-rcon-mcp
# Or from source
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/minecraft-rcon-mcp.git
cd minecraft-rcon-mcp
pip install .
2. Configure
Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your server details:
cp .env.example .env
RCON_HOST=localhost
RCON_PORT=25575
RCON_PASSWORD=your_password
SERVER_DIR=/path/to/minecraft/server
# Optional
DATABASE_PATH=/path/to/plugin.db
LOG_PREFIX=[TEST]
Make sure RCON is enabled in your server.properties:
enable-rcon=true
rcon.port=25575
rcon.password=your_password
3. Run
# Direct
minecraft-rcon-mcp
# Or as a module
python -m minecraft_rcon_mcp

Usage with Claude Code
Add to your .mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"minecraft-rcon": {
"command": "minecraft-rcon-mcp",
"env": {
"RCON_HOST": "localhost",
"RCON_PORT": "25575",
"RCON_PASSWORD": "your_password",
"SERVER_DIR": "/path/to/minecraft/server",
"DATABASE_PATH": "/path/to/plugin.db"
}
}
}
}
Find your server.properties
rcon.password= rcon.port= enable-rcon=true
Use Cases
AI-Assisted Plugin Testing
The run_command_with_log + read_test_log combo enables a powerful automated testing loop:
Agent writes plugin code
→ Build & deploy to server
→ run_command_with_log("mytest run")
→ read_test_log(event_filter="FAIL")
→ Agent fixes failures
→ Repeat
Live Debugging
check_plugin_status() → Is the plugin loaded? Any errors?
run_command("mycommand arg") → Execute plugin commands
read_server_log(lines=100) → Check what happened
query_database("SELECT ...") → Inspect plugin data
Incremental Log Monitoring
# First call — read all test logs
result = read_test_log() # returns position=12345
# After running more tests — only get NEW entries
result = read_test_log(since_position=12345)
Development
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/minecraft-rcon-mcp.git
cd minecraft-rcon-mcp
pip install -e .
中文说明
这是一个 MCP (Model Context Protocol) 服务器,通过 RCON 协议将 AI Agent 连接到 Minecraft 服务器。
核心功能
- RCON 命令执行 — 支持自动重连
- 命令 + 日志捕获 — 执行命令后自动抓取服务器日志输出
- 日志过滤读取 — 按前缀过滤日志,支持增量读取(位置追踪)
- 数据库只读查询 — 安全的 SQLite SELECT 查询,自动拦截写操作
- 插件健康检查 — RCON 连通性 + 错误日志 + 数据库状态一键检查
典型工作流
AI Agent 编写插件代码
→ 构建部署到服务器
→ run_command_with_log("cvtest all") ← 执行测试
→ read_test_log(event_filter="SUMMARY") ← 查看结果
→ read_test_log(event_filter="FAIL") ← 查看失败详情
→ Agent 修复问题 → 重复
这个 MCP 服务器在真实的 AI 辅助 Minecraft 插件开发中经过了充分验证(248 个测试用例全部通过)。
