Plugin SWatchdog

SWatchdog, Lightweight Block Logging for a Minecraft Server

SWatchdog is an old Bukkit plugin built to monitor block activity with minimal overhead. It records broken and placed blocks, their subtypes, the responsible player, and the date and time of each action. Optional logging also covers chest access and animal slaughter, while a warning can notify staff when gold blocks are mined.

Designed as a simpler alternative to BigBrother, SWatchdog helps moderators investigate suspicious activity and rollback griefing within a chosen area. It can restore broken blocks, remove placed blocks, and undo or redo administrative actions. Our BoxToPlay team presents it as a focused tool for legacy Minecraft server setups, not a modern actively maintained solution.
