# Discord (Bot API)
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw supports Discord integration for direct messages and guild text channels. The system requires a bot token, message content intent, and proper configuration to function.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Setup
|
|
|
|
To enable Discord:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a Discord bot application and obtain the token
|
|
2. Enable "Message Content Intent" and "Server Members Intent" in Discord Developer Portal
|
|
3. Configure the token via environment variable (`DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN`) or config file
|
|
4. Invite the bot to your server with appropriate permissions
|
|
5. Start the gateway
|
|
|
|
**Minimal configuration:**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"channels": {
|
|
"discord": {
|
|
"enabled": true,
|
|
"token": "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
- **DM handling**: Uses pairing-based security by default; unknown senders receive time-limited pairing codes
|
|
- **Guild channels**: Isolated sessions per channel with optional mention requirements
|
|
- **Group DMs**: Disabled by default; can be enabled via configuration
|
|
- **Message routing**: Replies always return to the originating channel
|
|
- **File uploads**: Supported up to 8 MB (configurable)
|
|
- **Reactions**: Available via the `discord` tool when enabled
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Options
|
|
|
|
The system supports granular control through:
|
|
|
|
- Per-guild rules and channel-specific settings
|
|
- User allowlists at multiple levels (DM, guild, channel)
|
|
- Mention requirements for reducing noise in shared channels
|
|
- Tool action gates (reactions, threads, moderation, etc.)
|
|
- Reply threading via special tags in model output
|
|
|
|
## Safety Considerations
|
|
|
|
- Treat bot tokens as sensitive credentials; use environment variables in production
|
|
- Grant only necessary permissions (View Channels, Send Messages, Read History)
|
|
- Use allowlists to restrict access in shared spaces
|
|
- Monitor rate limiting with retry policies
