Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Minecraft Status Services to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
Connect your client
One URL. Every client.
Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 7 capabilities arrive ready to run.
Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Minecraft Status Services, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Minecraft Status Services. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ
Questions Minecraft Status Services owners ask.
- 01
Do I need an API key or registration?
No. mcstatus.io, the Mojang profile API and the piston-meta version manifest are all public. no authentication anywhere in this MCP.
- 02
Why does a server show offline when I know it's up?
Some servers block status pings (enable-status=false in server.properties), hide behind proxies, or are Bedrock-only (a Java ping fails). The compare_servers capability auto-probes Bedrock too. try it there.
