This page documents the changes from the last stable Minecraft release (currently 1.15.2, protocol 578) to the current pre-release (currently 20w12a, protocol 707). Note that this page contains bleeding-edge information that may not be completely or correctly documented.

One who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into Protocol when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occurred to the respective packets there.

Handshaking

Clientbound

There are no clientbound packets in the Handshaking state, since the protocol immediately switches to a different state after the client sends the first packet.

Serverbound

Handshake

This causes the server to switch into the target state.

Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
0x00 Handshaking Server Protocol Version VarInt See protocol version numbers (currently 578 707)
Server Address String Hostname or IP, e.g. localhost or 127.0.0.1, that was used to connect. The Notchian server does not use this information. Note that SRV records are a complete redirect, e.g. if _minecraft._tcp.example.com points to mc.example.org, users connecting to example.com will provide mc.example.org as server address in addition to connecting to it.
Server Port Unsigned Short Default is 25565. The Notchian server does not use this information.
Next State VarInt Enum 1 for status, 2 for login

Login

Clientbound

Login Success

Packet ID State Bound To Field Name Field Type Notes
0x02 Login Client UUID String (36) Int array (4) Unlike in other packets, this field contains the UUID as a string with hyphens a fixed length int array.

The UUID is encoded and decoded as follows, where the int array for decoding is read in the order the bytes are received:

 public static UUID decodeUuid(int[] is) {
   return new UUID((long)is[0] << 32 | (long)is[1] & 4294967295L, (long)is[2] << 32 | (long)is[3] & 4294967295L);
 }
 public static int[] encodeUuid(long mostSignificantBits, long leastSignificantBits) {
   return new int[]{
       (int)(mostSignificantBits >> 32),
       (int)mostSignificantBits,
       (int)(leastSignificantBits >> 32),
       (int)leastSignificantBits
   };
 }

Username String (16)

This packet switches the connection state to play.
