Minecraft Pi has a built-in connection with IDLE. Take a look: https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/projects/getting-started...

Likely the Minecraft Pi Protocol [0].

It's a text-based protocol, so you can even use via telnet/nc. The python API included with pi is also just a thin wrapper around this.

There are mods for the java and android versions of Minecraft (Raspberry Juice Mod) that provide the API. The old, limited pi version if Minecraft has builtin python API support.
