What is CraftClose?
CraftClose is a professional-grade monitoring solution designed for Minecraft Java/Paper servers. It leverages AI to handle the heavy lifting of server maintenance, from detecting 20+ specific crash patterns like Out-of-Memory (OOM) errors to performing automated restarts with intelligent rate limiting. As a featured tool within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, it allows developers and server admins to manage their infrastructure through natural language and automated workflows.
By integrating with Gemini, CraftClose goes beyond simple pings; it analyzes server logs to identify plugin conflicts and configuration issues. Whether you are managing a local instance via SSH/RCON or a remote cluster on a Pterodactyl panel, CraftClose ensures high uptime and provides deep insights into server health, TPS, and player activity.
CraftClose Use Cases
- Automatically restarting Minecraft servers upon detecting a crash or hang.
- Analyzing complex server logs using Gemini AI to diagnose world corruption or plugin errors.
- Receiving real-time status updates and crash alerts via Telegram or Discord webhooks.
- Monitoring server performance metrics including TPS and player counts over time.
- Managing Pterodactyl panel servers via CLI or AI-agent workflows.
How CraftClose Works
- The agent connects to the Minecraft server using SSH, RCON, or the Pterodactyl API.
- It continuously polls the server at defined intervals to check uptime and performance metrics.
- If a crash or performance dip is detected, it cross-references log patterns against its built-in database of common issues.
- CraftClose triggers an automated restart if configured and sends a detailed alert to your chosen communication channel.
- Users can invoke AI analysis to receive specific optimization suggestions or conflict resolution steps based on the latest event data.
CraftClose Setup
To get started with this skill, install it globally via npm and initialize your configuration:
npm install -g craftclose
# Initialize the configuration file
craftclose init
You will then need to edit the generated craftclose.yml to include your server credentials and API keys for AI analysis.
CraftClose Data Schema & Taxonomy
CraftClose manages its operations through a structured configuration file and a local database for persistence:
| Component | Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Configuration | YAML (craftclose.yml) |
Stores server credentials (SSH, RCON, Pterodactyl), alert webhooks, and AI provider settings. |
| Event History | SQLite | Tracks historical TPS, player counts, and crash events for long-term analysis. |
| Logs | Text | Pulls and parses Minecraft server logs for AI-powered pattern matching. |
CraftClose Advanced Features
- Multi-channel alerting supporting both Telegram bots and Discord webhooks simultaneously.
- 6-layer security sandbox featuring path jailing, RCON filtering, and action allowlists.
- AI-powered plugin conflict detection and configuration optimization suggestions.
- Native Pterodactyl panel integration for console command execution and remote power management.
- Rate-limited auto-restarts to prevent infinite boot loops during catastrophic failures.
