@striderlabs/mcp-discord

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Discord, enabling AI assistants like Claude to interact with Discord servers and channels via the Discord API.

Prerequisites

You need a Discord Bot Token. This connector uses the Discord.js library to communicate with Discord's official API — not browser automation.

Creating a Discord Bot

Go to the Discord Developer Portal
Click New Application and give it a name
Go to the Bot section and click Add Bot
Under Token, click Reset Token and copy the token
Under Privileged Gateway Intents, enable:
- Server Members Intent
- Message Content Intent
Go to OAuth2 > URL Generator, select scopes: bot
Select bot permissions: Read Messages/View Channels, Send Messages, Read Message History
Use the generated URL to invite the bot to your server(s)

Scored 2026-08-30 14:35 across 6 tools

Disambiguation4/5

The tools are mostly distinct: get_servers, get_channels, get_messages, send_message, get_dms, and search_messages each target a different resource. There is minor overlap between get_messages and search_messages, and get_dms could be confused with channel message retrieval, but descriptions clarify the intended use.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a consistent get_* pattern, with send_message and search_messages being logical action-based exceptions. The use of 'dms' instead of 'direct_messages' is a minor inconsistency but does not hurt readability.

Tool Count5/5

Six tools is a well-scoped set for a Discord MCP server covering server discovery, channel listing, message reading, searching, sending, and DM access. No tool feels redundant or unnecessary.

Completeness4/5

The core read/send workflows for Discord are covered: list servers, list channels, fetch messages, search messages, send messages, and read DMs. Minor gaps exist such as no direct message sending or message editing/deletion, but the main use cases are supported.
