Best Minecraft: Java Edition Discord Bots

Minecraft bots bridge Discord and a Java Edition server: live status embeds with player count and MOTD, whitelist requests handled from Discord, chat relayed in both directions, and alerts when the server goes down. Some also do skin and UUID lookups or pull scoreboard stats.

Most of the setup work is on the MC side. Status queries need query enabled or the server list ping reachable on your port, chat bridges usually need a plugin or mod installed, and whitelist linking needs the bot to verify a member's account first. Check what your host allows before inviting a bot that depends on any of it.
