Lucky finds exposed Minecraft Java servers and warns owners. This page explains the moving parts and the limits.

[how it works]

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

members: Invited people who can see the dashboard and take part in review or outreach.
workers: Scan public IP addresses for Minecraft Java servers and report basic status back to Lucky.
reviewers: Read results for signs that a server is private, abandoned, or likely to be harmed if the wrong person finds it.
outreach: Contacts the owner with what we found and how to reduce exposure.

[faq]

What are your limits?: We only use information exposed by servers reachable from the public internet. We do not bypass access controls, exploit servers, join private worlds to interfere, or publish target lists.
Can I become a member?: Only by referral. We're a small, closed network and not taking public applications at this time.
What do you do with what you find?: Reviewers decide whether outreach makes sense. When it does, we try to warn the owner and point them to concrete fixes.
Are you affiliated with Mojang?: No. Lucky is a community project. Not a Mojang product.
