Minecraft2Shell

by yigitgulyurt

Minecraft2Shell lets a player run operating system commands from inside Minecraft, through a Fabric client mod that runs only on the player's own device.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source26.1.2

What it does

The mod adds a way to type shell commands in the game and receive their output, so the operating system can be reached without leaving the client. Its aliases let a frequently used command be saved under a short name and started directly. Because the commands execute with the same access as the player's account, any file the account can change, including deletion, is within reach of a command typed in the game.

Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players join without installing anything. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the author's public source repository and issue tracker are linked. It requires Fabric API, Mod Menu and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL). Files are published for Fabric only, for 26.1.2, with 3.0.0 as the latest file dated 2026-06-20.

Key features

  1. Operating system commands

    Commands typed inside Minecraft run on the local operating system and return their output in the game.

  2. Command aliases

    Frequently used commands can be saved under short names and started directly from the game.

  3. Local execution only

    Commands run on the player's own device and are not sent to a server or another player.

  4. Safety warnings

    The author's documentation describes the risk of running commands without understanding them and recommends backing up important files first.
