Building a self-hosted ecosystem for Minecraft: I need help with finding tools.

Hey guys,

Due to severe internet restrictions (Full intranet) in my country, I am building a localized, self-hosted ecosystem to keep Minecraft accessible for players here.

I'm trying to mirror as much stuff as possible. Currently, I have covered:

  • Mod/Plugin repositories (Modrinth/CurseForge)
  • Skin searching tools

I need your expertise to find more open-source, self-hostable tools or lightweight public APIs that I can host myself. Ideally, these should be standalone web apps/tools with zero external dependencies or solutions with a clean API that can be hooked into something like a Telegram/Discord bot (since we have a local Telegram clone funded by the government that remains accessible from outside).

I've already tried searching on Google and Github, alongside trying to use AI to find stuff but I couldn't find anything. Any GitHub repos or tools with an API would be highly appreciated. Thank you for helping keep the game alive here!
