Currently you need to provide the source property along the brand and version properties in the chain.yml file:
# chain.yml
server:
source: https://api.papermc.io/v2/projects/paper/versions/1.20.2/builds/222/downloads/paper-1.20.2-222.jar
brand: paper
version: 1.20.2
But I am thinking of making source optional, and use the brand and version properties to download the appropiate server.jar file, removing the need to find the URL to get the server runtime.
However, I am not aware of any platforms/APIs that provide a URL to download servers with specific version and type (paper, spigot, waterfall, forge, etc.).
This feature would be similar to how launchers like Modrinth App can create profiles with specified loader type and version.
