Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Discord for LLM agents: 168 tools for messages, moderation, channels, roles, threads and AutoMod.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Chat & email
  • You need to fill in: DISCORD_TOKEN

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: DISCORD_TOKEN, DISCORD_GUILD_ID, ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@willuhmjs/discord-mcp",
        "--stdio"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your-value",
        "DISCORD_GUILD_ID": "your-value",
        "ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add discord --env DISCORD_TOKEN=your-value --env DISCORD_GUILD_ID=your-value --env ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT=your-value -- npx -y @willuhmjs/discord-mcp --stdio

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@willuhmjs/discord-mcp",
        "--stdio"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your-value",
        "DISCORD_GUILD_ID": "your-value",
        "ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "discord": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@willuhmjs/discord-mcp",
        "--stdio"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your-value",
        "DISCORD_GUILD_ID": "your-value",
        "ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • DISCORD_TOKEN secret required env
    Discord bot token from https://discord.com/developers/applications
  • DISCORD_GUILD_ID env
    Default server (guild) ID used when a tool call omits guildId
  • ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENT env
    Set to 1 to enable the privileged Server Members intent (needed for member-list tools)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Common questions

Is Discord safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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_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 –, and the latest version (1.1.1) reached the registry 35 days ago.

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?

In the same category: Vexa, emailmd, MCP WhatsApp Cloud

discord-mcp

An MCP server that lets an LLM run a Discord server: 168 tools for messages, moderation, channels, roles, threads, events, invites, webhooks, AutoMod and more. Works with Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP client.

  • Rich messages: embeds, Components V2, polls, files, replies — validated before they reach Discord, with errors that name the bad field.
  • Interactions: role menus that survive restarts, plus a log of who clicked what.
  • Secure by default: binds to 127.0.0.1, SSRF-guarded URL fetching, webhook tokens never echoed.

Quick start

  1. Create a bot in the developer portal, invite it to your server, and enable the Message Content intent (*Bot → Privileged Gateway Intents*).
  2. Add this to your MCP client's config (mcp.json, claude_desktop_config.json, .cursor/mcp.json, ...):
{

"mcpServers": { "discord": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@willuhmjs/discord-mcp", "--stdio"], "env": { "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your-bot-token", "DISCORD_GUILD_ID": "your-server-id" } } } }

VS Code uses "servers" instead of "mcpServers". On Windows, if the client can't find npx, use "command": "cmd" with "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@willuhmjs/discord-mcp", "--stdio"].

Claude Code — one command:

claude mcp add discord -e DISCORD_TOKEN=... -e DISCORD_GUILD_ID=... -- npx -y @willuhmjs/discord-mcp --stdio

Docker — a long-running HTTP server at http://127.0.0.1:8085/mcp:

docker run --rm -e DISCORD_TOKEN=... -p 127.0.0.1:8085:8085 ghcr.io/willuhmjs/discord-mcp

Requires Node.js 22+ for npx.

Configuration

VariableDefaultMeaning
DISCORD_TOKEN— (required)Bot token.
DISCORD_GUILD_ID—Default server for tools when guildId is omitted.
ENABLE_MEMBERS_INTENToffEnables the privileged Server Members intent (also enable it in the portal). Member-list tools need it.
MCP_TRANSPORThttpstdio for stdin/stdout. The --stdio flag does the same.
HOST / PORT127.0.0.1 / 8085HTTP bind address and port.
MCP_SOCKET—Listen on a Unix socket instead of HOST:PORT (HTTP mode only).

In HTTP mode, POST /mcp serves MCP (stateful sessions via Mcp-Session-Id) and GET /health returns 200 once the bot is connected.

Keeping the HTTP endpoint private

The HTTP endpoint has no authentication: anyone who can reach it can use every tool as the bot. Keep it on loopback or a private network. On a shared machine, other accounts can still reach a loopback port, so use a Unix socket that only you can open:

mkdir -m 700 ~/.mcp

MCP_SOCKET=~/.mcp/discord.sock DISCORD_TOKEN=... npx @willuhmjs/discord-mcp curl --unix-socket ~/.mcp/discord.sock http://localhost/health

The socket is created with mode 600. Avoid network file systems such as NFS. The Docker image binds 0.0.0.0, so keep that container on an internal network. stdio mode has no network exposure at all.

Tools

Every tool, with its parameters and the Discord permission it needs, is listed in [docs/TOOLS.md](https://github.com/willuhmjs/discord-mcp/blob/main/docs/TOOLS.md), along with the conventions (string IDs, JSON-string payloads, reason for the audit log) and message/component formats.

Security

  • Every URL a tool fetches (emoji, stickers, files, avatars) goes through one guarded fetcher: http/https only, private/loopback/metadata IPs blocked before the request and after every redirect, size and time limits.
  • Webhook tokens are credentials: create_webhook returns the URL once, and no list/get tool shows it.
  • No tool reads the server's filesystem.

Development

npm ci

npm run build # tsc -> dist/ npm test # vitest, no Discord token needed npm run typecheck

A contract test locks every tool name and parameter set against tests/fixtures/tool-contract.json. TESTING.md is the manual checklist for a run in a real test server.

Releases are automated: commits on main using Conventional Commits (feat:, fix:, feat!:) feed a release PR; merging it publishes to npm, the MCP Registry and GHCR.
