Discord MCP server for integrating Discord with Claude
Most team communication work still happens through a UI a human drives. Discordmcp MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. Discord MCP server for integrating Discord with Claude.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables LLMs to interact with Discord channels, allowing them to send and read messages through Discord's API. Using this server, LLMs like Claude can directly interact with Discord channels while maintaining user control and security.
The server publishes 2 tools. What each one is for:
macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.jsonWindows — %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.jsonInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @modelcontextprotocol/inspector on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: DISCORD_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the team communication options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Discordmcp's toolset — macOS, Windows — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by v-3; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
