Minecraft MCP Server

What it does

This server connects an AI assistant to a Minecraft world, allowing the model to control a character (bot) using the Mineflayer API. It enables LLMs to perceive the game environment, move, interact with blocks, and execute complex tasks like building structures from images or exploring the world through natural language.

Tools

• get-position: Retrieves the bot's current coordinates.
• move-to-position: Navigates the bot to specific coordinates.
• look-at: Rotates the bot to face a target location.
• place-block: Places a specific block at given coordinates.
• dig-block: Removes a block from the world.
• list-inventory: Scans all items currently held by the bot.
• send-chat: Sends a text message to the in-game chat.
• fly-to: Direct aerial movement to coordinates.
• find-entity: Locates the nearest entity of a specified type.
