🛡️ MCLocalAuth
Minecraft Authentication Plugin with Integrated Discord Bot
🎯 Description
MCLocalAuth is a security plugin for Minecraft servers that uses Discord as an authentication system. Protect your server by limiting access to only members of your Discord community.
Works on Spigot/Paper and BungeeCord — the Discord bot runs on both platforms with all features.
🎮 How It Works
- Player Connects → Immediately disconnected with a unique code
- On Discord → Type
/mclogin <code>(on server or in DMs with the bot) - Bot Verifies → Is the player a Discord member?
- If Yes → IP registered, reconnection authorized ✅
- If No → Blocked ❌
✨ Features
🔐 Triple Layer Security
- ✅ Discord Required: Only members of your Discord can play
- ✅ Temporary Code: Each connection generates a unique code that expires
- ✅ IP Protection: One username = One IP → Impossible to steal identities
🤖 Integrated Discord Bot
- Starts automatically with the server
- No external bot to host
- No network ports to open
- Native Discord slash commands
- Works on Spigot/Paper and BungeeCord
- Commands available in DMs (globally registered)
- Automatic bot status verification at startup
