Push alerts, live console, quick actions, and mobile chat. AFK Alerts is a premium plugin + mobile app that lets owners and players never miss a moment.

Drop the AFK Alerts plugin into your Paper/Spigot/Purpur server. On first run it registers securely with the AFK Alerts cloud.
# Place JAR → /plugins
# Restart server, then configure:

Create alert rules (join/quit, chat keywords, TPS drops). Get push notifications and take quick actions from your phone.
Get notified for: VIP joins, grief/keyword hits, TPS drops, restarts, and more. Fully customizable rules.
AFK Alerts can listen to your existing plugins and forward relevant events to linked players who opted in.
Everything is opt-in. You control which categories are exposed to players.
Moderate instantly from your phone.
Tail logs in real time, search, and filter by severity. Watch TPS/CPU/RAM to catch lag before players do.
Join a server and run /afklink

Toggle the exact alerts you want per server. Get notified when it matters — stay quiet when it doesn’t.
*If the server has those plugins enabled (e.g., Vault, AuctionHouse, Towny, Factions).
Set per-server quiet hours, Do Not Disturb, and AFK detection. Choose whether to receive alerts only when AFK, always, or never.
Every server is different. Turn on broadcasts for one server, only mentions for another, and mute a third entirely.
Let AFK Alerts decide when to ping you based on activity. Choose:
Set global or per-server quiet hours. Keep mentions on and everything else off while you sleep or work.
