📖 Description

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Discord API using (JDA), designed to integrate Discord bots with MCP-compatible applications such as Claude, ChatGPT etc. It allows AI assistants to interact with Discord by managing channels, sending messages, and retrieving server information. Ideal for building powerful Discord automation and AI-driven workflows.

🔬 Installation

► 🐳 Docker Installation (Recommended)

[!NOTE] Docker installation is required. Full instructions can be found on docker.com.

1) Set local env variables

export DISCORD_TOKEN="YOUR_DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN"
export DISCORD_GUILD_ID="OPTIONAL_DEFAULT_SERVER_ID"
export SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE=http

[!IMPORTANT] Instructions for creating a Discord bot and retrieving its token can be found here.

[!TIP] The DISCORD_GUILD_ID env variable is optional.

When provided, it sets a default Discord server ID so any tool that accepts a guildId parameter can omit it.

2) Run the Docker container

docker run -d -i \
  --name discord-mcp \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  -p 8085:8085 \
  -e SPRING_PROFILES_ACTIVE \
  -e DISCORD_TOKEN \
  -e DISCORD_GUILD_ID \
  saseq/discord-mcp:latest

Default MCP endpoint URL (HTTP profile): http://localhost:8085/mcp

Go to: Settings -> Cursor Settings -> MCP -> Add new global MCP server

Pasting the following configuration into your Cursor ~/.cursor/mcp.json file is the recommended approach. You may also install in a specific project by creating .cursor/mcp.json in your project folder. See Cursor MCP docs for more info.

{
  "mcpServers": {

</details> <details> <summary style="font-size: 1.35em; font-weight: bold;"> 🚀 n8n Connection </summary>

Connect in n8n

Open n8n and add an MCP Client node.
Choose HTTP or Streamable HTTP transport (depending on your n8n version/node options).
Set the server URL to: http://localhost:8085/mcp
Save the node and test the connection.
After connecting, you can use the available Discord tools exposed by discord-mcp inside your workflow.

Notes

If n8n is running in Docker, localhost may point to the n8n container itself, not your host machine.
In that case, use the Docker service name or another reachable host, for example: http://discord-mcp:8085/mcp

</details> <details> <summary style="font-size: 1.35em; font-weight: bold;"> 🖥 Claude Desktop Connection </summary>

STDIO local config (Default, legacy):

Past the following configuration into your Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--rm",
        "-i",

        "saseq/discord-mcp:latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Remote MCP Connector:

Open Claude Desktop and go to Settings -> Connectors.
Add a custom connector and set MCP URL to your server endpoint (for example https://<PUBLIC_HOST>/mcp).
Save and reconnect.

Claude Desktop remote connectors are managed via Connectors UI (not claude_desktop_config.json). http://localhost:8085/mcp is reachable only from your machine. For Claude Desktop remote connectors, expose the endpoint with public HTTPS (for example tunnel/reverse proxy).
