StreamChatBridge
by kryparnold
StreamChatBridge lets a player connect Twitch or Kick chat to the Minecraft chat window while playing.
What it does
A player can watch their own channel, switch to another channel at any time, and send messages back to the stream without leaving the game. Incoming messages can be styled with placeholders and Minecraft color codes, and both chat prefixes can be set in the platform settings. A dashboard opens with F8 and holds the controls for connecting and managing channels.
Watched channels are stored and restored after a restart, and the authenticated session comes back on its own. Connections that drop are re-established automatically, and OAuth tokens are refreshed in the background. Because it runs entirely on the client, StreamChatBridge needs no companion bridge installed on a server. Configure it once, and the stream chat stays available wherever the player needs it.
Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 33 release versions, 1.17.1 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Twitch and Kick chat in Minecraft
Messages from Twitch or Kick channels appear in the in-game chat, so a player can follow a stream without a second window.
Channel switching
A player can watch their own channel or any other one and change the watched channel at any point during play.
Persistent sessions
Watched channels and the authenticated session are saved, so they are restored after each restart without new logins.
Message customization
Incoming messages can be shaped with placeholders and Minecraft color tags, and both prefixes are configurable.

How it compares
Discord Integration is a server-side mod under the MIT License, published for 1.12.2 – 26.2 across Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it links the server chat to Discord rather than to a stream. Twitch Chat Bridge is a client-side Fabric mod under the MIT License, and it is available for 1.17 – 1.21.11 and 1.21 – 26.2 in two separate listings, so the two versions cover different ranges.
