Prerequisites

Note:
According to Discord's security model, a bot can only access information from servers it has been explicitly added to.
If you want to use this MCP server to access a specific Discord server, you must add the bot to that server first.
Use the invite link below to add the bot to your target server.

Installation

Installing via NPM

You can use it with the following command:

npx mcp-discord --config ${DISCORD_TOKEN}

For more details, you can check out the NPM Package.

Installing via Smithery

To install mcp-discord automatically via Smithery

Installing via Docker

You can run mcp-discord using Docker. The Docker images are automatically built and published to Docker Hub.

Docker Hub Repository: barryy625/mcp-discord

Docker uses the streamable HTTP server by default via build/app.js.

# Pull the latest image
docker pull barryy625/mcp-discord:latest

# Run HTTP server on port 8080
docker run -e DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token -p 8080:8080 barryy625/mcp-discord:latest

# Override the listening port if needed
docker run -e DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token -p 3000:3000 barryy625/mcp-discord:latest --transport http --port 3000

Available Tags:

  • latest - Latest stable version from main branch
  • v1.3.8, etc. - Specific version releases

Manual Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/barryyip0625/mcp-discord.git
cd mcp-discord

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Compile TypeScript
npm run build

Configuration

A Discord bot token is required for proper operation. The server supports two transport methods: stdio and streamable HTTP.

Transport Methods

  1. stdio (Default)

    • Traditional stdio transport for basic usage
    • Suitable for simple integrations

  2. streamable HTTP

    • HTTP-based transport for more advanced scenarios
    • Supports stateless operation
    • Configurable port number

Configuration Options

You can provide configuration in two ways:

  1. Environment variables:
DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token
  1. Using command line arguments:
# For stdio transport (default)
node build/index.js --config "your_discord_bot_token"

# For streamable HTTP transport
node build/app.js --transport http --port 3000 --config "your_discord_bot_token"

Usage with Claude/Cursor

1. Use Stdio Transport with Claude/Cursor

Use build/index.js when your MCP client expects a command-based stdio server.

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "discord": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "path/to/mcp-discord/build/index.js"
            ],
            "env": {
                "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your_discord_bot_token"
            }
        }
    }
}

Cursor

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "discord": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "path/to/mcp-discord/build/index.js"
            ],
            "env": {
                "DISCORD_TOKEN": "your_discord_bot_token"
            }
        }
    }
}

This is the recommended setup for local command-based MCP clients.

2. Self-Host the Streamable HTTP Server

Use build/app.js when you want to run mcp-discord as an HTTP MCP server.

Run with Node.js

DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token node build/app.js --transport http --port 3000

On Windows PowerShell:

$env:DISCORD_TOKEN="your_discord_bot_token"
node build/app.js --transport http --port 3000

Run with Docker

docker run -e DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token -p 3000:3000 barryy625/mcp-discord:latest --transport http --port 3000

Once started, the MCP HTTP endpoint is:

http://localhost:3000/mcp

3. Connect to a Hosted HTTP MCP Server

If you already host mcp-discord elsewhere, point your MCP client at the server's /mcp endpoint instead of launching build/app.js as a command.

Example endpoint:

https://your-server.example.com/mcp

Important notes:

  • build/app.js starts an HTTP server. It does not speak stdio.
  • build/index.js is the correct entrypoint for command-based stdio MCP clients.
  • For hosted HTTP usage, configure your MCP client to connect to the HTTP endpoint URL provided by your deployment.
  • The exact HTTP-client configuration format depends on the MCP client you use.
