This MCP server appears to be a Node.js-based MCP server package. To use it, first install the server dependencies and then start the MCP server instance. The tooling typically exposes a set of MCP commands within the server, such as command loaders, event handlers, and data adapters, allowing you to manage and simulate Minecraft Protocol Communications in a local or test environment. Once running, you can connect clients or test harnesses to the configured port and observe the server's MCP hooks, middleware, and data flows through the provided tools.

Prerequisites:

• Node.js (14+ recommended) and npm installed on your system
• A compatible Maven/Gradle or alternative runtime only if the project requires building native components (check repo README)

Steps:

1. Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/sugarforever-mcp-servers/mcp-servers.git cd mcp-servers

2. Install dependencies npm install

3. Configure environment (optional but recommended)

   • Create a .env file or export variables as needed by the MCP server (e.g., MCP_PORT=25565, MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0)

4. Run the server npm run start

   or if using a direct node entry point

   node server.js

5. Verify the server is running by checking the logs and connecting a client to the configured port.

Tips and common issues:

• Ensure your Node.js version is compatible with the MCP server's codebase.
• If the server fails to start due to port in use, stop the conflicting service or change MCP_PORT in your environment.
• Check for required environment variables in the README or a .env.sample file and populate them before starting.
• If using Docker or other runtimes, adapt the mcp_config accordingly (not shown in the basic setup).
• Review the available tools within the MCP server (e.g., command registries, event listeners, and adapters) to customize behavior for testing or simulation.

Environment variables to consider:

• MCP_PORT: port on which the MCP server will listen
• MCP_HOST: host address to bind
• MCP_LOG_LEVEL: logging verbosity (e.g., info, debug, warn)
• Any feature flags documented in the repo (e.g., ENABLE_TESTS, USE_MOCKS).
