🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 16+
  • Minecraft Bedrock Edition with cheats enabled
  • MCP client (例: Claude Desktop, Continue, etc.)

Installation

  1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Mming-Lab/minecraft-bedrock-mcp-server.git cd minecraft-bedrock-mcp-server
  1. Install dependencies
npm install
  1. Build the project
npm run build
  1. Start the server
npm start

Minecraft Connection

  1. Start the MCP server
npm start

Default port: 8001

  1. Prepare Minecraft World
    • Create or select a world with cheats enabled
    • Disable all experimental features
    • Use Creative mode for best results
  2. Connect from Minecraft In Minecraft Bedrock Edition chat, run:
/connect localhost:8001/ws
  1. Verify Connection You should see connection logs in the MCP server console.

MCP Client Setup (例: Claude Desktop)

The server implements the MCP (Model Context Protocol) standard and can be used with any compatible MCP client.

Example: Claude Desktop configuration

  1. Locate config file:
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  2. Add server configuration:
{ "mcpServers": { "minecraft-bedrock-mcp-server": { "command": "node", "args": ["path/to/dist/server.js"] } } }
  1. Custom port configuration:
{ "mcpServers": { "minecraft-bedrock-mcp-server": { "command": "node", "args": ["path/to/dist/server.js", "--port=8002"] } } }
  1. Restart your MCP client to load the new configuration

For other MCP clients, refer to their respective documentation for server registration.

📖 Documentation

Comprehensive documentation is available for contributors and developers. Contact the maintainers for detailed setup guides and architecture documentation.

💻 Development

Available Scripts

npm run build # Compile TypeScript to JavaScript npm start # Start the compiled server npm run dev # Build and start in one command

Port Configuration

The server port can be configured via command line argument:

  • --port=8002 - Set custom port
  • Default: 8001

⚠️ Requirements

  • Minecraft Bedrock Edition with cheats enabled
  • WebSocket connections enabled in world settings
  • World with appropriate permissions for command execution

🔧 Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

Server won't start:

  • Ensure Node.js 16+ is installed
  • Check if port 8001 is already in use: netstat -ano | findstr :8001
  • Try a different port with --port=8002

Minecraft connection fails:

  1. Verify world settings:
    • Cheats must be enabled
    • Disable all experimental features
    • Use Creative mode
  2. Check connection command:
    /connect localhost:8001/ws
  3. Firewall settings:
    • Ensure port 8001 is allowed through Windows Defender
    • Check antivirus software isn't blocking connections

MCP client integration issues:

  1. Verify config file path and syntax (例: Claude Desktop)
  2. Restart your MCP client completely
  3. Check server logs for MCP protocol errors
  4. Ensure file paths in config are absolute paths

Common Error Messages

  • EADDRINUSE: Port already in use - try different port
  • Connection refused: Server not running or wrong port
  • unknown message purpose ws:encrypt: Normal during connection setup
