MCPE-ServerInfo

Overview

The MCPE‑ServerInfo MCP server is a lightweight tool designed to bridge the gap between Minecraft Bedrock Edition servers and AI assistants. By accepting a server address as input, it queries the target Bedrock server for its connection details—such as IP, port, version, player count, and ping—and returns this information in a structured format. This eliminates the need for manual network diagnostics or third‑party web services, enabling developers to incorporate real‑time server status checks directly into AI workflows.

For developers building AI‑powered chatbots or automation scripts, the ability to fetch server metadata on demand is invaluable. An assistant can answer user questions like “How many players are online on the Mystic Realm server?” or “Is the AdventureLand Bedrock server reachable today?” without any external lookup. The MCP server’s single‑endpoint design keeps integration simple: the AI client sends a JSON payload containing the server address, and receives a concise response that can be parsed or displayed immediately.

Key capabilities include:

• Protocol‑level interrogation of Bedrock servers using raw packet exchanges, ensuring accurate data even when servers employ custom plugins or legacy protocols.
• Low latency responses; the server performs a quick TCP handshake followed by a status query, typically returning results within milliseconds.
• Reliability checks such as ping measurement and version validation, allowing AI assistants to flag outdated or unreachable servers.
• Extensibility: the MCP interface can be expanded with additional metadata fields (e.g., server MOTD, map name) without altering the core logic.

Typical use cases involve:

• Gaming communities where moderators need instant status updates for multiple servers.
• Discord or Slack bots that report server health in real time, keeping players informed about availability.
• AI‑driven support portals that guide users to the best available server based on current load or version compatibility.
• Analytics dashboards that aggregate server statistics across a network, feeding insights into AI recommendation engines.

By integrating MCPE‑ServerInfo into an AI assistant’s toolkit, developers gain a dependable, low‑overhead method for querying Bedrock server states. The server’s focus on raw packet interaction gives it a distinct advantage over web‑based APIs, ensuring compatibility even with private or custom servers that may not expose standard REST endpoints. This makes it a practical addition to any AI workflow that requires up‑to‑date, server‑side information.
