setup-server is a skill for Claude Code from chapmanjw/minecraft-java-fabric-claude-plugin. It costs 82 tokens per session (2,599 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A setup procedure for configuring and running the Minecraft Java MCP server embedded in a Fabric mod. MCP is a way for software tools to communicate with an agent through defined commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set the server host, port, authentication, and tool categories, launch Minecraft or a dedicated server, verify the server is listening, and obtain its bearer token when needed.
Why use it?
It handles the configuration details needed for single-player or dedicated Minecraft servers, including network settings, authentication, health checks, and remote access tokens.

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

setup-server scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Configure and run the MCP server (Step 3 of 4)

This is Phase 3 of the four-phase Minecraft Java MCP setup. It assumes Phase 2 (setup-mod) is done: the MCP mod jar and Fabric API jar are in mods/. The MCP server is embedded in the mod, so "running the MCP server" means launching Minecraft (single-player) or the dedicated server.

Work interactively. Branch on the choice from Phase 1: single-player is mostly defaults; dedicated/remote needs a config file and a token.

Where config lives

The mod reads config/minecraft_fabric_mcp/config.json under the game directory:

  • Single-player: <.minecraft>/config/minecraft_fabric_mcp/config.json.
  • Dedicated server: <server>/config/minecraft_fabric_mcp/config.json.

The file is optional — it's only needed to override defaults. Any field can also be overridden by an environment variable named MCP_<FIELD> (e.g. MCP_PORT, MCP_AUTH_REQUIRED).

The defaults are deliberately safe: bind 127.0.0.1, port 8765, no auth, reject all cross-origin browser requests.

There are two servers. The above is the world server (minecraft-java, the main entrypoint). The same jar also has a client inspection server (minecraft-java-client, the client entrypoint) that runs inside a real, rendered Minecraft client and serves the client category — view_capture (a real first-person PNG) and sense_* / client_status. It reads a separate config config/minecraft_fabric_mcp/client.json (default port 8766, env prefix MCP_CLIENT_*) and defaults to exposing only the inspection tools. It needs a real client window with a GPU — it is not part of a headless dedicated server. This phase configures the world server; running the inspection server (and the server-only / client-only / combo patterns) is covered in setup-connect. Most fields below apply to both — only the file name, default port, and env prefix differ.
