How do I use Minecraft Plugin Documentation MCP Server?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Minecraft Plugin Documentation MCP Server Scan my project and check for the latest versions of my dependencies" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Quick Start - Using in Your Projects

Option 1: Global Installation (Recommended)

Install the MCP globally once, then use it in any project:

# Clone and setup (one time only)
git clone https://github.com/ValentinTarnovsky/MCP-MCP.git
cd MCP-MCP
npm install
npm run build
npm link

Then in any project, add this to your MCP config:

Claude Code (.claude/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "minecraft-plugin-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["minecraft-plugin-docs-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop (%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "minecraft-plugin-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["minecraft-plugin-docs-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Option 2: Direct Path

If you prefer not to use npm link:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "minecraft-plugin-docs": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["C:\\path\\to\\MCP-MCP\\dist\\index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Usage Examples

Once configured, you can ask Claude things like:

Get Dependency Documentation

"Get documentation for paper-api"
"Look up luckperms docs"
"What's the Maven coordinate for hikaricp?"
"Show me EdTools API reference"
"How do I use SkinsRestorer API?"

Scan Your Project

"Scan dependencies in my project"
"What dependencies does this plugin use?"

Check for Updates

"Check for updates in this project"
"What's the latest version of paper-api?"
"Are my dependencies up to date?"

Full Analysis

"Analyze my plugin workspace"
"Full dependency report"

Adding Custom Dependencies

Edit src/registry/dependencies.ts:

Standard Maven Dependency

'my-plugin-api': {
  name: 'My Plugin API',
  description: 'Description here',
  documentation: {
    wiki: 'https://...',
    javadocs: 'https://...',
    github: 'https://github.com/...',
  },
  maven: {
    groupId: 'com.example',
    artifactId: 'my-plugin-api',
    repository: 'maven-central', // or 'jitpack', 'paper', 'codemc', 'custom'
    repositoryUrl: 'https://...', // required for 'custom' repos
  },
  aliases: ['myplugin', 'my-plugin'],
},

Manual JAR Dependency (no Maven repo)

'local-plugin-api': {
  name: 'Local Plugin API',
  description: 'A plugin that distributes JAR manually',
  documentation: {
    wiki: 'https://...',
    github: 'https://...',
    downloadUrl: 'https://download-link...', // Where to get the JAR
  },
  maven: {
    groupId: 'com.example',
    artifactId: 'LocalPlugin-API',
    repository: 'manual', // Special type for local JARs
  },
  aliases: ['localplugin'],
  // Optional: Document sub-APIs
  apiReference: {
    mainClass: 'LocalPluginAPI',
    importPackage: 'com.example.api',
    subApis: [
      {
        name: 'FeatureAPI',
        getter: 'getFeatureAPI()',
        description: 'Manage features',
        methods: ['doSomething()', 'getSomething() -> String'],
      },
    ],
  },
},

After adding, rebuild: npm run build

Troubleshooting

Server Not Starting

Ensure Node.js 18+ is installed: node --version
Check the build completed: npm run build
Verify dist/index.js exists

Dependencies Not Found

Check spelling of dependency name
Try using aliases (e.g., "paper" instead of "paper-api")
Use Maven coordinates (e.g., "io.papermc.paper:paper-api")

npx Command Not Found

Run npm link in the MCP-MCP directory
Verify with npm list -g minecraft-plugin-docs-mcp
