About

The Repeating Command Block is a specialized redstone component used to run commands repeatedly without needing a clock circuit. When powered by redstone, it executes its configured command every single game tick (20 times per second), making it useful for continuous effects like particle spawns, scoreboards, or automated systems.

Unlike the standard Command Block, the Repeating Command Block cannot be found in creative inventory and must be given via the /give command. It is stackable up to 64 and cannot be broken in survival mode. Admins use it to streamline complex command chains and automate server-side effects across their world.
