ServerSearch
by gabdevele
ServerSearch lets players look up Minecraft servers from inside the game, without opening a browser to check server lists.
What it does
ServerSearch adds a search for multiplayer servers directly in the game client, so players can find a server without leaving Minecraft to visit separate sites. Results come from approved server listings, not from scraping third-party pages. A found server can be joined straight from the results, without first saving it to the server list.
The mod also lets a found server be added to the saved server list. It is a Forge mod for 1.20.6 only, and it is published as a Forge build with a latest file of 0.1 from 2025-01-24, marked alpha. ServerSearch is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, although the author links public source code and an issue tracker.

Use cases
Finding a new server
A player looking for a multiplayer server with particular settings can run a search in the game and join from the results.
Trying a server once
A player who wants to test a server can connect directly, then decide whether to add it to the list.
Who it’s for: Players who join multiplayer servers on Minecraft 1.20.6 with Forge and want to search for servers without leaving the game.
How it compares
Server Finder by BlockAtlas also searches for servers in the client, but it works on Fabric and Forge across 1.19.2 – 1.21.4 and is All rights reserved. Source (In-Game Mods) runs client-side only on Forge 1.20.1 under the MIT License, so it covers a different version. Persistent Inventory Search is client-side only across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.18.2 – 26.3, and it searches inventories rather than servers.
