Enables AI agents to interact with Discord by sending notifications, creating and managing channels, and posting interactive questions with support for two-way responses via buttons or text modals.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Discord Notifications MCP Serversend a notification to the alerts channel that the build finished"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Discord Notifications MCP Server
MCP server that gives AI coding agents access to Discord: send notifications to multiple channels, create channels for new projects, and post questions (yes/no, multiple choice, extended answer) with optional two-way response.
Requirements
Python 3.10+
A Discord Bot: create an application, add a bot, copy the token. Invite the bot to your server with scopes:
bot, permissions: Send Messages, View Channels, Manage Channels, Read Message History, Use Slash Commands (if needed). For questions with buttons, enable Message Content Intent in the Bot settings.
Config
Env / file | Purpose |
| Bot token (required). |
| Default guild ID for |
| JSON map of channel keys → IDs, e.g. |
| Directory for |
| Same as |
Channel keys let agents use send_notification("general", "Done.") instead of raw channel IDs.
Install and run
cd mcp-discord-notify
pip install -r requirements.txt
export DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token
# optional: export DISCORD_GUILD_ID=your_server_id
# optional: create channels.json or set DISCORD_CHANNELS
python main.pyThe server runs over stdio (JSON-RPC). Configure your MCP client to run:
Command:
python(oruv run python)Args:
["/absolute/path/to/mcp-discord-notify/main.py"]Env:
DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=...(and optionallyDISCORD_GUILD_ID,DISCORD_CHANNELS)
Cursor
Add to MCP settings (or .cursor/mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"discord-notifications": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["/home/skitz0/Documents/claude-cord/mcp-discord-notify/main.py"],
"env": {
"DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN": "your_bot_token",
"DISCORD_GUILD_ID": "your_guild_id"
}
}
}
}Use the real path to main.py and set the env vars (or rely on your shell env).
