Discord Bot for AI agents

Discord bots automate moderation, messaging, and event management inside Discord servers on behalf of community owners, handling routine tasks so human moderators can focus on members. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

01 · USE CASES

What agents do in Discord Bot.

01

Post an announcement

Send a message to a channel to announce an event or update to the community.

02

Create a scheduled event

Set up a guild scheduled event with a time and description once organizers confirm the details.

03

Approve before banning a member

Route a ban or bulk ban request through approval, since removing members from a guild is hard to reverse.

02 · ACTIONS

167 Discord Bot actions, graded by risk.

Every Discord Bot action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

await arc0.policies.set('discord_bot', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_dm

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Discord Bot connects.

Users sign in to Discord Bot on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Discord Bot OAuth app, or bring your own so the Discord Bot consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

The same Discord Bot connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Discord Bot and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Discord Bot with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Discord Bot to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Discord Bot actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Discord Bot?

Users sign in to Discord Bot on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Discord Bot OAuth app, or bring your own so the Discord Bot consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

Q03

Which Discord Bot actions can my agent take?

167 in total: 70 read, 66 write and 31 destructive, such as “initiate user channel with recipient”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Discord Bot?

Yes. Actions like “delete guild by id” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Discord Bot too?

Yes. The same Discord Bot connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
