CodeKeep vs McpeTool

CodeKeep is a web and extension service for organizing, sharing and discovering code snippets. Pressing “Paste” on a website opens an Add Snippet dialog, after which snippets can be placed in folders and filtered with labels. Users can share folders, bookmark folders from other users and browse reusable snippets in CodeKeep’s discovery area. A screenshot editor provides templates, image and background additions and social accounts. CodeKeep says its VS Code and Google Chrome extensions import and export snippets, and the site includes dark mode. The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited public code snippets, up to 40 folders, up to 20 bookmarks and the VS Code extension. It excludes private snippets and private folders, and screenshots carry a watermark. The Pro plan costs $4.99 a month and adds unlimited private snippets, folders and bookmarks, private folders, folder icons and watermark-free screenshots. The privacy policy says information is retained only as necessary, protected with commercially acceptable measures and not shared publicly or with third parties except when required by law.

McpeTool is a free, offline utility for reading and writing Minecraft Bedrock Edition world data. Its command-line interface and local HTTP API provide get, put, and delete operations. Database commands list, retrieve, write, and delete key/value pairs in a world’s LevelDB store. Level-data commands retrieve or replace level.dat contents using JSON, YAML, hex dump, base64, or binary formats. NBT data can be converted to JSON and YAML, and relevant commands accept or produce base64 and binary data. The API starts a local HTTP server and handles GET, PUT, and DELETE requests for database keys. The tool runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows and can be self-hosted or used through its API. It is MIT-licensed and intended as a basic access layer for people building more capable world editors. McpeTool cannot be used while Minecraft is running the world because LevelDB allows only one process at a time. The maker calls it a work in progress, says input validity is not currently checked, and advises backing up worlds before changes.
