Quick answer

Create a Minecraft Swing Command Command

Select the target and hand. The output includes both optional arguments explicitly so the intended animation remains clear.

How to Use the Minecraft Swing Command Generator

Use Java 26.1 or newer, then choose the entity that should perform the animation.
Select main hand or off hand so the intended animation argument is explicit.
Copy the command knowing that some entity models have no visible swing animation.

Minecraft Version and Edition Notes

Mojang added /swing in Java 26.1. The command can succeed for any entity, but only supported entity models show a visible swing.

The tool generates vanilla Java command syntax. Server plugins, disabled commands, permissions, target cardinality, and world state can still determine whether a valid command succeeds at runtime.

Example Command

/swing @s mainhand

This example sends a main-hand swing for the executing entity.

What the Generator Does Not Change

A successful command does not guarantee a visible animation on entities whose client model has no supported swing.

Run commands only in a world or server where you have permission. Always keep the selected generator version aligned with the game version that will execute the command.
