Executes another command but allows changing the executor, changing the position and angle it is executed at, adding preconditions, and storing its result.

== Usage ==
There are fourteen{{only|java|short=1}} / eleven{{only|bedrock|short=1}} '''subcommands (aka. instructions)''' for the <code>/execute</code> command. Multiple subcommands can be chained after <code>/execute</code>. Subcommands are divided into 4{{only|java|short=1}} / 3{{only|bedrock|short=1}} categories: modifier subcommands, condition subcommands, store subcommands{{only|java|short=1}}, and the <code>run</code> subcommand.
* '''Modifier subcommands''' modify execution context variables to change the context the command is executed in. Subcommands following it execute with specific executor(s), execution position(s), execution dimension(s), execution rotation(s) and execution anchor.
* '''Condition subcommands''' are used to test whether certain conditions are met, and either output the result or limit the execution of following subcommands. 
* '''Store subcommands'''{{only|java|short=1}} can store the output values of the command in a scoreboard or the data of an entity, [[Minecraft:block entity]], or command storage, and can also change the maximum or current value of a bossbar.
* '''<code>run</code> subcommand''' is used for carrying out another command.

All needed subcommands can be concatenated together. Subcommands other than the <code>run</code> subcommand can be arranged arbitrarily and used multiple times. The <code>run</code> subcommand can be used only once, at the end of the chain. Only a <code>run</code> subcommand or a condition subcommand may finalize the chain; otherwise, the command is unparseable.

=== Subcommands and forking ===
The game processes the subcommand chain in order — from left to right. For example, the following commands are different:
*All entities move one block forward: <code>execute as @e at @s run tp ^ ^ ^1</code>
*All entities are teleported to one block in front of the executor: <code>execute at @s as @e run tp ^ ^ ^1</code>

Some subcommands can '''fork''' the command execution into multiple '''branches''', causing subcommands following it to be executed multiple times. For example, when the {{cd|as}} subcommand selects multiple entities, the subcommands following it execute once per entity.

If the {{cd|/execute}} command doesn't fork, it has only one branch — '''the main branch'''.

A branch may terminate halfway if, for example, the condition in a condition subcommand isn't met, or the {{cd|as}} subcommand selects zero entities. When terminating, a red message is shown.{{only|bedrock|short=1}} If all branches terminate, the <code>/execute</code> command is said to have <em>terminated</em>.

Forking is different between {{el|java}} and {{el|bedrock}} (see also {{bug|MC-125067|resolution=Won't Fix}} and {{bug|MCPE-165278|resolution=Unresolved}}):
* {{IN|java}}, the game processes subcommands in breadth-first, that is, executes subcommands one by one. So the game processes other subcommands before processing <code>run</code> subcommands, so the <code>run</code> subcommand cannot affect other subcommands.
* {{IN|bedrock}}, the game processes subcommands in depth-first. That is, after forking, all the following subcommands are considered as a whole and are executed once for each branch.
* For example, when there are two armor stands (A and B) in the world, and a player executes <code>execute as @e[type=armor_stand] as @e[type=armor_stand] run summon armor_stand</code>, the behaviors of {{el|java}} and {{el|bedrock}} are shown in the following pictures:
<gallery>
Execute forking in Java Edition.png|Java Edition
Execute forking in Bedrock Edition.png|Bedrock Edition
</gallery>

Note that <code>... run execute ...</code> has no overall effect in both versions. For example, the following commands are identical:
*<code>execute as @e[type=armor_stand] as @e[type=armor_stand] run summon armor_stand</code>
*<code>execute as @e[type=armor_stand] run execute as @e[type=armor_stand] run execute run execute run summon armor_stand</code>

{{IN|java}}, depth-first can be achieved via {{cmd|function}}, for example:
* When there are two armor stands (A and B) in the world, and a player executes <code>execute as @e[type=armor_stand] run function test</code>, and in the function file is:
** <code>execute as @e[type=armor_stand] run summon armor_stand</code>
*It behaves like <code>/execute as @e[type=armor_stand] as @e[type=armor_stand] run summon armor_stand</code> in {{el|bedrock}}.
{{IN|bedrock}}, there is no way to achieve breadth-first.

=== Output values ===
{{main|Commands#Output}}
==== Stored values ====
{{exclusive|java|section=1}}
{{IN|java}}, a branch outputs a <code>success</code> value and a <code>result</code> value (see also [[Minecraft:Commands#Output]]) after it is fully executed (does not terminate halfway). These two output values:
* Are the outputs of each execution branch, rather than the {{cd|/execute}} command itself;
* Come from the last subcommand (may be a condition subcommand or a <code>run</code> subcommand).
* Both are integers. The <code>success</code> value is always 0 or 1. The <code>result</code> value is rounded down if not an integer.
* If in a branch the last subcommand fails, both the two values are 0 in the branch.
* The two values can be stored through store subcommands{{only|java}}.

Note that these two values are from the conditional subcommand at the end or from the command in the {{cd|run}} subcommand, and are the output values of each branch, rather than of the whole {{cd|/execute}} command.

If executing {{cmd|function}} command in the {{cd|run}} subcommand, these two output values are not available under certain conditions. See the {{cmd|function}} for details.

If the command execution is forked after a store subcommand, the storage operation is applied on each branch. The output value of each branch is stored after the branch is fully executed. If the store locations are the same between all branches, the output value of a later-executing branch directly overwrites the output value of the earlier-executed branch, rather than being accumulated. So, after the whole {{cd|/execute}} command is executed, the value at this storage location is the output of the last branch executed.

==== Success count ====
Like most commands, <code>/execute</code> command itself also has a '''[[Minecraft:Commands#Output|success count]]''' (whether or not terminates halfway):
* It is the output value of the {{cd|/execute}} command itself, rather than of each execution branch.
* It comes from the last subcommand (may be a condition subcommand or a <code>run</code> subcommand).
* The success counts of all branches are summed up.
* It is an integer greater than or equal to 0.
* When executing it with a command block, the success count is passed into the command block, which can be checked with a chained conditional command block or be read with a redstone comparator.

== Syntax ==
There are fourteen{{only|java|short=1}} / eleven{{only|bedrock|short=1}} instructions (aka. subcommands) for the <code>/execute</code> command, and each has its own special syntax, so describing syntax takes a large branching tree.

=== Modifier subcommands ===

==== align ====
: Updates the ''execution position'', aligning to its current [[Minecraft:Coordinates#Block position|block position]] (integer coordinates). Applies only along specified axes.
: Effectively {{Wikipedia|Floor and ceiling functions|floors|newtab=1}} the coordinates (i.e., {{Wikipedia|rounding|rounds|newtab=1}} the coordinates down)
:;Syntax
: {{el|java}}:
:: <code>align <axes> -> execute</code>
: {{el|bedrock}}:
:: <code>align <axes: string> <chainedCommand: ExecuteChainedOption_0></code>
:;Arguments
:: {{Argument|axes|swizzle|axes: string|basic_string}}
::: {{arg desc|je=swizzle}}
:;Result
:: ''Execution position'' in the given axes are floored, changing by less than 1 block.
:: Unparseable if the argument is not specified correctly.
:;Example
:: Given (-1.8, 2.3, 5.9), <code>execute '''align xz'''</code> changes the position to (-2, 2.3, 5).
:: Given (2.4, -1.1, 3.8), <code>execute '''align yxz''' run spawnpoint @p ~ ~ ~</code> sets the player's spawnpoint to (2, -2, 3).

==== anchored ====
: Sets the ''execution anchor'' to the eyes or feet. Defaults to feet.
: Running <code>positioned <pos> -> execute</code> resets to feet.
: Effectively recenters local coordinates on either the eyes or feet, also changing the angle of the <code>facing</code> subcommand (of {{cmd|execute|link=none}} and {{cmd|teleport}}) works off of.
: See also {{bug|MCPE-162681}} and {{bug|MCPE-165051}} for issues about {{el|bedrock}}.

:: <code>anchored <eyes|feet> <chainedCommand: ExecuteChainedOption_0></code>
:;Arguments
:: {{Argument|anchor|entity_anchor|eyes{{!}}feet}}
::: Whether to anchor the executed command to ''eyes'' or ''feet''.
::: Must be either <code>eyes</code> or <code>feet</code>.
:;Result
:: ''Execution anchor'' is set to either the eyes or the feet.
:: Unparseable if the argument is not specified correctly.
:;Example
:: The effect of {{Command|tp}} is to move a target by placing its feet at the given position.
:: <code>execute anchored eyes run tp ^ ^ ^</code> effectively teleports the executor's feet to where its eyes are.
:: <code>execute anchored eyes run tp ^5 ^ ^</code> means "place the executor's feet 5 blocks left of where its eyes are"

==== as ====
: Sets the ''executor'' to target entity, without changing ''execution position'', ''rotation'', ''dimension'', and ''anchor''.
:;Syntax
: {{el|java}}:

::: Target entity/entities to become the new executor.
::: {{arg desc|je=entity|amount=multiple|type=entities|be=CommandSelector<Actor>}}
:;Result
:: ''Executor'' is updated to target entity (which changes the meaning of <code>@s</code>).
:: Unparseable if the argument is not specified correctly.
:: Forks if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> selects multiple entities.
:: Terminates current branch if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> fails to resolve to one or more entities (named players must be online).
:;Example
:: Kill all sheep: <code>execute '''as @e[type=sheep]''' run kill @s</code>
:: Make all villagers in loaded chunks invincible: <code>execute '''as @e[type=villager]''' run data merge entity @s {Invulnerable:1}</code>{{only|java}}

==== at ====
: Sets the ''execution position'', ''rotation'', and ''dimension'' to match those of an entity; does not change ''executor''.

:;Arguments
:: {{Argument|targets|entity|origin: target|CommandSelector<Actor>}}
::: Target entity/entities to match position, rotation, and dimension with.
::: {{arg desc|je=entity|amount=multiple|type=entities|be=CommandSelector<Actor>}}
:;Result
:: ''Execution position, rotation,'' and ''dimension'' are updated to match target entity.
:: Unparseable if the argument is not specified correctly.
:: Forks if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> selects multiple entities.
:: Terminates current branch if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> fails to resolve to one or more entities (named players must be online).
:;Example
:: Move all sheep upward 1 block: <code>execute as @e[type=sheep] '''at @s''' run tp ~ ~1 ~</code>
:: Kill the player running the command, because "<code>at</code>" does not change the executor: <code>execute '''at @e[type=sheep]''' run kill @s</code>

==== facing ====

:::: Must be either <code>eyes</code> or <code>feet</code>.
:;Result
:: ''Execution rotation'' is updated to face given position or targets.
:: Unparseable if the argument is not specified correctly.
:: Forks if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> selects multiple entities.
:: Terminates current branch if <code><targets></code> or <code>origin: target</code> fails to resolve to one or more entities (named players must be online).
:;Example
:: Executor rotates once to the left: <code>execute facing ^1 ^ ^ run tp @s ~ ~ ~ ~ ~</code>
:: All entities move one block in the direction of (0, 64, 0) (without changing their rotation): <code>execute as @e at @s '''facing 0 64 0''' run tp @s ^ ^ ^1</code>
:: All entities move one block in the direction of (0, 64, 0) (with changing their rotation): <code>execute as @e at @s '''facing 0 64 0''' run tp ^ ^ ^1 ~ ~</code>
:: All non player entities move one space in the direction of their nearest player (without changing their rotation): <code>execute as @e[type=!player] at @s '''facing entity @p feet''' run tp @s ^ ^ ^1</code>

==== in ====
: Sets the ''execution dimension'' and ''execution position''.
: It respects dimension scaling for relative and local coordinates: the ''execution position'' (only the X/Z part) is divided by 8 when changing from the Overworld to the Nether, and is multiplied by 8 when vice versa. Applies to custom dimensions as well.

:::* <code>execute '''in minecraft:the_end''' run locate structure minecraft:end_city</code>{{only|java}}
:::* <code>execute '''in the_end''' run locate structure end_city</code>{{only|bedrock}}
:: If a player at position {{cd|(16,64,16)}} in Overworld runs the following command, the player is teleported to {{cd|(16,64,16)}} in the Nether:
:::* <code>execute '''in minecraft:the_nether''' positioned as @s run tp ~ ~ ~</code>{{only|java}}
:::* <code>execute '''in nether''' positioned as @s run tp ~ ~ ~</code>{{only|bedrock}}

::* <code>execute '''in minecraft:the_nether''' run tp ~ ~ ~5</code>{{only|java}}
::* <code>execute '''in nether''' run tp ~ ~ ~5</code>{{only|bedrock}}

==== on ====
{{exclusive|section=1|java}}
: Updates the ''executor'' to entities selected based on relation to the current executor entity. without changing ''execution position'', ''rotation'', ''dimension'', and ''anchor''.

:;Arguments
:: {{el|je|short=1}}: {{Argument|''relation''|}}
::: A relation to the current executor entity.
:::* <code>attacker</code>: the last entity that damaged the current executor entity in the previous 5 seconds. Note that damage types in <code>minecraft:no_anger</code> tag bypass the record of attacker. Interaction entities do not forget attacker after 5 seconds. Some mobs forget the attacker when ceasing their aggression.
:::* <code>controller</code>: the entity that is riding and controlling the current executor entity. See Riding for details.
:::* <code>leasher</code>: the entity leading the current executor entity with a leash.
:::* <code>origin</code>: the entity that cause the summon of the current executor entity. For example, the shooter of an arrow, the primer of a primed TNT entity.

:::* <code>passengers</code>: all entities that are directly riding the current executor entity, no sub-passengers.
:::* <code>target</code>: the target that the current executor entity intends on attacking. Interaction entities can select the last entity that interacted with them.
:::* <code>vehicle</code>: the entity ridden by the current executor entity.

=== Condition subcommands ===
The particular use of the <code>if</code> and <code>unless</code> subcommands are to restrict command execution to happen only under specified conditions. In most cases, <code>unless</code> is a negation of <code>if</code>, equivalent to "if not...". The two subcommands have identical argument structures.

;Result of condition subcommands:
: Unparseable if the arguments are not specified correctly.
: In some cases, for example, testing a block outside the world, both <code>if</code> and <code>unless</code> terminates or fails.
: When not at the end of the subcommands chain, only if the condition tests pass does the branch continue; otherwise it terminates.
:: {{IN|java}}, if it is executed in multiple branches, it acts as a context filter (only branches with contexts that match the condition continue).
: When at the end of the subcommands chain, it checks whether the condition is met and then outputs. {{IN|java}}, it has output values that can be stored by store subcommands.

There are eleven{{only|java|short=1}} / four{{only|bedrock|short=1}} different types of conditions:

{{anchor|store}}

=== Store subcommand ===
{{Exclusive|Java|section=1}}
Stores the final subcommand's <code>result</code> or <code>success</code> value somewhere. It is first processed along with other subcommands in the subcommand chain, recording the location to store in. After the last subcommand (may be a condition subcommand or a <code>run</code> subcommand) is executed, output values are stored in the recorded location. Note that the output values of commands are always an integer. If not, they are rounded down.

There are five different modes of storage:
# [[#storeblock|store (result|success) block]] – Stores output value under one of a block's NBTs
# [[#storebossbar|store (result|success) bossbar]] – Stores output value as a bossbar data
# [[#storeentity|store (result|success) entity]] – Stores output value under one of an entity's NBTs
# [[#storescore|store (result|success) score]] – Stores output value under a target's score on an objective
# [[#storestorage|store (result|success) storage]] – Stores output value under one of a storage's NBTs
