Developer’s note: This plugin turns off the server if no one's playing for more than 5 minutes.

Idle Server Shutdown

Idle Server Shutdown is a lightweight Minecraft server plugin for Java Edition that automatically stops an empty server after more than five minutes by default. Designed for Bukkit, Paper, Purpur, and Spigot, it helps reduce unnecessary CPU and RAM usage when nobody is online.

Administrators can adjust the inactivity delay to suit a hibernation setup or a private server schedule. Console notifications announce planned shutdowns and cancellations, making the process clear and easier to monitor. At BoxToPlay, we consider it a practical optimization tool for servers compatible with Minecraft 1.20 through 1.20.2.
