Minecraft Commands & Scripting Skill

Before editing, inspect the exact Minecraft version and execution context (chat, function, command block, or RCON). Keep the requested scope and use only the relevant examples. Check current release notes for version-sensitive syntax.

Command Syntax Conventions

• <required> — required argument
• [optional] — optional argument
• (a|b|c) — choose one
• ... — repeating / multiple
• Coordinates: ~ = relative offset, ^ = local (look-direction)

Routing Boundaries

• Use when: the task is raw command chains, scoreboards, selector logic, or RCON command scripting.
• Do not use when: creating or editing full datapack structures and registries (minecraft-datapack).
• Do not use when: behavior depends on Java plugin or mod code (minecraft-plugin-dev/minecraft-modding).

Bundled References And Examples

• Execute cheat sheet: references/execute-cheat-sheet.md
• Selector cheat sheet: references/selector-cheat-sheet.md
• Example scripts: scripts/examples/arena-countdown.mcfunction, scripts/examples/stopwatch-podium.mcfunction, scripts/examples/rcon-backup-warning.sh (one-time setup commands are called out in comments when needed)

Use the cheat sheets when you need fast command recall without scanning this whole skill file. The example scripts are meant to be copyable starting points, not toy snippets.

Command reference

Use references/command-reference.md for the relevant command family. It includes version boundaries for item components, attributes, text events, gamerules, and 26.x world clocks. Do not run example blocks as a batch; each demonstrates a separate operation.

RCON Scripting

Connect to a Minecraft server remotely using RCON (enable in server.properties):

# server.properties
enable-rcon=true
rcon.password=your_password
rcon.port=25575

RCON is unencrypted. Keep the port bound to a trusted private network, VPN, or localhost, and inject the password through a protected secret rather than a command-line argument.
