CommandNeural is a PaperMC plugin that exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) HTTP server on your Minecraft server. MCP-compatible clients and AI agents can use this endpoint to execute 100+ administration tools over HTTP.
What is MCP? MCP is a protocol standard for connecting AI assistants to external tools. This plugin implements the MCP server side, exposing Minecraft server operations as callable tools.
