Welcome to Madsi. In 2025, I started a Minecraft server with friends and went searching for Discord bots to integrate the Discord server I'd made. DiscordSRV was the obvious choice, but...there were pages of configs and .yaml files to sift through, documentation that's impressively thorough (but long), and it lacked the features I wanted. Keen on coding and in search of a project, I decided to build my own Discord bot, Minecraft mod, and web dashboard, jumping in at the deep end, leaning on Claude, and learning through steep curves. Twelve months on, the first public release of Madsi is ready - offering an enviable list of heavily tested features and a dashboard I think you'll love. It's still in beta, and will stay there for the foreseeable, while I continue to refine and improve the inner workings. ### The bits I love most: 1. **The dashboard.** Never again will you touch a YAML file. What more needs to be said? That, and everything is set up in the browser, with live previews, and lovely animations. 2. **The chat bridge.** With very granular controls, every event type from deaths to chat to events can go to its own channel. There's a filter for slurs and spam, and a helper that writes the filter patterns for you. There's even whispering!! 3. **Linking and whitelisting.** Players link once per discord server with /link (through Microsoft OAuth, or in-game linking if you so wish), and that governs the whitelisting, stats, messages, nicknaming, syncing and more. 4. **Fabric and NeoForge, not just Paper.** The same Madsi runs on modded servers and plugin servers, and behaves identically on all three, so whichever you choose, it works! 5. **Running the server itself.** Install and update mods from Modrinth, edit configs through the UI with a diff, switch worlds, take backups and import modpacks, all from the dashboard. No more drag'n'drop! 6. **Roles and leaderboards.** Driven by in-game stats (playtime, death, blocks mined - you name it), you can link Discord roles and create leaderboards. Plus, with anti-cheat features, you can be alerted if your members are getting a suspicious amount of diamonds.. or rotten potatoes, if that's a notification you need. The full feature list - deets for geeks™: - Two-way chat between Minecraft and Discord, with joins, leaves, deaths and advancements routed to whichever channels you pick, event by event - A chat filter for the bridge, with a pattern helper to write the rules - Account linking with /link, verified through Microsoft, plus nickname sync - Whitelisting by Discord role and custom rules, kept in sync as roles change - Applications: build a form, take answers in Discord or on the web, review them, and accept in one click (role, whitelist and welcome message together) - In-game ranks, tags and teams driven by Discord roles - Live console in the browser, saved commands, and team commands with approval - Ban sync across Discord and every server, with Discord timeouts mirrored as temporary bans - /mc-ban, /mc-kick and /mc-unban from Discord - Whispers between Discord and players in game, in the channel or by DM - Schedules for restarts (including "when nobody's online"), announcements, commands and backups - Crash and lag alerts, command alerts, and a live status card in Discord - Player counter channels, and a player activity chart - Stats, leaderboards, and Discord roles earned from Minecraft stats - Stat alerts for X-ray and impossible mining speeds, plus Grim and Vulcan flags relayed to Discord - Install and update mods from Modrinth, plus a config editor that shows a diff before saving - World switching, backups, and .mrpack modpack imports - Several Minecraft servers under one Discord - Every bot message editable, with a live Discord preview - Rename, restrict or disable any command; text prefixes; your own custom commands - No-code buttons and menus (flows) for your Discord - A visual Minecraft command builder, version-aware, that runs straight on your server - Team permissions for your staff, and an audit log of who did what - 40-odd Minecraft commands in Discord: /recipe, /seed, /wiki, /trivia, /villager and more - Custom branding on paid plans - Import from DiscordSRV - Fabric, NeoForge and Paper, on Minecraft 1.21.9 to 26.2 - A setup wizard, docs, and Nuri, the built-in assistant - And more... ### Still here?
