Common questions

Is Discord Server MCP safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed today, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

discord-server-mcp

Create, organise and moderate Discord servers from Claude (or any MCP client) through your own bot.

Ask in plain words: *"set up a server for my gaming group"*, *"add a Solved tag to the help forum"*, *"post this announcement with the image and ping @Announcements"*, *"who can see #staff-chat?"*. The assistant reads the server, shows you the plan, and acts once you agree.

132 tools, of which only a core of 48 is on at first; the rest turn on when a task needs them, plus discord_api for any other Discord endpoint.
Live events: the assistant sees what happens as it happens: new messages, mentions of the bot, members joining or leaving, reactions and button clicks. It can also wait for something, such as a reply.
Automations:
role menus with buttons, a dropdown or reactions;
welcome messages with auto-roles, and verification with an "I accept the rules" button;
numbered support tickets in private channels; a staff-only channel gets a line when each one opens (with a Claim button), is claimed and closes (with a summary and the full transcript), and ticket_history finds any past ticket;
support forums: new posts get an Open tag and a Solved button, staff can claim them, solved posts close, idle ones close after a few days;
the server's own slash commands, such as /rules or /links;
rules, "when this happens, do that": answer words, delete links, give a role on a reaction, DM new members, time out spammers;
scheduled and recurring messages, in any time zone;
moderation logs, in one channel, split by kind, or in a forum with one post per member and tags per kind (filter by member, kind or both): deleted and edited messages with what they said, joins and leaves, kicks, bans, timeouts, nickname and role changes with who did it and why, AutoMod blocks. The bot's own automations and ticket channels are left out, and every entry is kept for search_mod_log and /modlog;
staff alerts: a role ping in a staff channel and/or DMs on bans, kicks, timeouts, AutoMod blocks and raids;
staff slash commands inside Discord: /lock, /unlock, /slowmode, /purge, /timeout, /untimeout, /kick, /ban, /unban, /role add|remove, /announce, /ticket close|claim, /modlog. Discord shows each one only to members with the matching permission, they respect the role order, and the log shows who used them.

Members see these texts in the server's language: English, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Chinese (simplified), Korean, Polish or Turkish. Every text can be changed, then or later, so any other language works too. Staff command names can be in English, translated for each member, or in one language for everyone. They run while the assistant is open, or around the clock with discord-server-mcp run or Docker.

Background jobs: big builds, role changes for many members, message backups (JSON, Markdown and HTML transcripts) and restores. Each job shows its progress and can be cancelled or resumed.
Local or remote: stdio for desktop apps, or Streamable HTTP with a bearer token (serve --http).
Guided from zero: /discord finds what is already set up, lets you pick a server, and walks you through creating a bot, adding it to an existing server, or creating a brand-new server. The new server gets built step by step: questions, plan, structure, rules and welcome texts, then Community, onboarding and AutoMod.
Several bots and servers:
add as many bots as you like and move between their servers;
each request uses the bot that is in that server, or the one you chose for it;
every result says which bot acted.
Warns about 2FA: when a server requires two-factor authentication for moderation, it says who needs 2FA and why.
Templates, layouts and backups: build a whole server from a template, a layout you describe, or a backup. Only what is missing is created, and an interrupted build can be resumed.
Safe by design:
every change can be previewed (dry_run);
permanent actions need confirm: true;
there are read-only and preview-only modes, an allow-list of servers and selectable tool packs;
nobody is pinged unless you ask.
Built for Claude: a /discord command with a menu and a guided setup, and skills that make Claude show the plan before acting.
Easy install:
one-click extension for Claude Desktop (asks for the token in a form);
a plugin for Claude Code;
a setup command (init) for every other client.
Names, not ids: announcements, @Moderator, alice. Emoji prefixes are ignored when matching, and typos get "did you mean…?" suggestions.
Files and images from your computer or the web, inside messages and embeds, and as icons, emojis and banners.
Online presence: the bot shows as online with your status text while it runs.

Install

1. Create the bot (2 minutes)

Go to discord.com/developers/applications, click New Application, open Bot and click Reset Token. Copy the token and keep it secret: it controls the bot.
Optional: on the same page, turn on Server Members Intent so member lists and role member counts work.
Add the bot to your server: OAuth2 → URL Generator → scope bot → permission Administrator → open the link. The /discord command and the init command also give you this link.
In Server Settings → Roles, drag the bot's role near the top. A bot can only manage roles and members below its own highest role.

2. Add it to your app

Claude Desktop: download discord-server-mcp- .mcpb from the latest release and double-click it. Claude Desktop shows a form; paste the token there. Node.js is not needed because Claude Desktop includes it.

Claude Code:

/plugin install discord-server --marketplace pr5ias/discord-server-mcp

Then run /discord: Claude walks you through creating the bot and asks for the token in a private box, or, if your app has none, on a one-time page in your browser at 127.0.0.1. The token goes straight to the server and is saved in ~/.discord-mcp/bots.json, never into the chat. On older versions, run /plugin marketplace add pr5ias/discord-server-mcp first, then /plugin install discord-server@discord-server-mcp. The same .plugin file from the releases also installs in the Claude app.

Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code and other MCP clients (needs Node.js 22+):

npx discord-server-mcp init

Without npm, clone this repository and run node dist/index.mjs init instead.

The wizard checks the token, saves it to ~/.discord-mcp/bots.json (run it again to add more bots), prints the invite link, and adds the server to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and Windsurf if you want. To set it up by hand, start the server with npx -y discord-server-mcp and give it the token as DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN.

3. Use it

Restart the app and type `/discord` (in Claude), or just ask *"show my Discord server"*. If something is off, /discord setup or node dist/index.mjs check tells you exactly what to fix.

The `/discord` command

/discord shows what is set up and asks which server to work on, or offers to add a bot, add it to another server, or create a new server. With no bot yet it explains how bots work and walks you through creating one. After you pick a server, a menu opens:
Check-up: finds problems, such as missing topics, empty channels, risky roles or a bot role that is too low.
Build or reorganise: templates, layouts and restores.
Messages & announcements.
Roles, members & moderation.
Build or reorganise includes Build a server from scratch:

Questions about the server: what it is for, languages, which areas, size.
A starting point: a built-in template, a template from the internet, a copy of another of your servers, or your own description. It is adapted to your answers, then a preview: the channel sidebar as members will see it, the roles, and a grid of who can see and write where. Approve it, ask for changes, or try another template, as many times as you like.
The structure: roles, channels and permissions.
The rules, welcome, FAQ and first announcement, written for you to approve before they are posted.
Optional settings: Community, onboarding, the welcome screen, verification, AutoMod and an invite link.

/discord setup walks through the setup one step at a time.
/discord skips the menu, e.g. /discord build the project template.

Tools

132 tools in packs. Only the core pack (48 tools) is on at first, so the model has fewer tools to choose from and each request stays small. When a task needs more, the assistant calls enable_tools and the pack appears at once. In apps that do not refresh their tool list, the assistant calls the same tools through use_tool, so nothing is out of reach. DISCORD_TOOLSETS=all turns everything on.

Pack	Tools
core (always on)	`setup_check` (bots, their servers, what to fix, 2FA notes, invite links), `list_bots`, `add_bot` (private token box or a one-time local page, never in the chat), `use_bot`, `set_server_bot`, `remove_bot`, `bot_invite_link`, `configure`, `enable_tools`, `use_tool`, `list_servers`, `get_server`, `edit_server`, `create_invite`, `create_category`, `create_channel` (text, announcement, forum, media, voice, stage; private), `edit_channel`, `delete_channel`, `reorder_channels`, `set_permissions`, `set_forum_tags`, `create_forum_post`, `create_thread`, `read_messages`, `get_message`, `send_message` (embeds, files, link buttons, polls, replies, pings, silent, publish), `edit_message`, `delete_messages`, `pin_message`, `react`, `search_messages`, `list_roles`, `create_role`, `edit_role`, `delete_role`, `list_members`, `get_member`, `set_member_roles`, `timeout_member`, `kick_member`, `ban_member`, `check_permissions` (effective permissions; who can see a channel), `list_templates`, `import_discord_template` (discord.new links), `preview_blueprint` (sidebar, roles and a who-sees-what grid), `export_server_structure`, `apply_blueprint`, `job_status`
