Network hosts and services
Identify outbound HTTPS requests by the feature that uses them.
SkinsRestorer 15.12.6All platformsReviewed
SkinsRestorer uses outbound connections. It does not require a new inbound port for skin APIs. Permit DNS through your configured resolver and HTTPS response traffic for established connections.
Feature-specific hosts
| Feature | Host | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Account UUID lookup | api.mojang.com, api.minecraftservices.com, eclipse.skinsrestorer.net | Account lookup and fallback routes |
| Account profile lookup | sessionserver.mojang.com, eclipse.skinsrestorer.net | Signed account textures |
| URL skin generation | api.mineskin.org | Server generation and website queue requests |
| Website and cape-aware generation | axolotl.skinsrestorer.net | Website route and generated URL resolution |
| Recommended skins | cool-skins.skinsrestorer.net | Random skins and recommended menu entries |
| Diagnostic upload | bytebin.lucko.me | /sr dump report upload |
| Update checks and downloads | api.github.com, github.com | Downloads can redirect to GitHub asset hosts |
| Optional Ely.by account source | account.ely.by, skinsystem.ely.by | Only with api.elyByEnabled |
| Client texture download | textures.minecraft.net | Java clients fetch the skin image |
HTTPS uses port 443. DNS transport follows your host's resolver configuration. Do not assume one static IP per API host.
The exact request list depends on enabled features and the release. GitHub downloads can involve additional redirected asset hosts. Inspect the failed request instead of opening every domain indiscriminately.
Status check scope
/sr status exercises account UUID and profile services. It does not check MineSkin, Axolotl uploads, recommendations, or database access.
The website's MineSkin availability indicator also does not prove every cape or upload route works.
