Minecraft Datapack Skill

Inspect pack.mcmeta and the target Minecraft version before editing. Preserve an existing target unless migration is requested; metadata numbers alone do not make older command or registry schemas compatible. Complete the requested pack changes, then use static checks and the available game environment proportionately.

Skill Scope

Routing Boundaries

• Use when: the deliverable is datapack files (pack.mcmeta, data/...) and .mcfunction/JSON content.
• Do not use when: the request is command-only snippets not tied to a datapack file tree (minecraft-commands-scripting).
• Do not use when: the request requires loader APIs, Java code, or runtime mod behavior (minecraft-modding).
