To install mcp-discord for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @barryyip0625/mcp-discord --client claude

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

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Compile TypeScript
npm run build

A Discord bot token is required for proper operation. You can provide it in two ways:

1. Environment variables:

DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token
DEFAULT_SERVER_ID=your_default_server_id  # Optional
DEFAULT_CHANNEL_ID=your_default_channel_id  # Optional

2. Using the --config parameter when launching:

node path/to/mcp-discord/build/index.js --config "{\"DISCORD_TOKEN\":\"your_discord_bot_token\"}"

The project includes an enhanced startup script (start-discord.js) that provides better debugging and error handling:

• Loads environment variables from the .env file
• Sets default server and channel IDs if not provided
• Redirects console.log to stderr to avoid JSON parsing issues in Claude Desktop
• Tests the Discord connection directly before starting the MCP server
• Provides detailed error information if anything goes wrong

To use this script:

node start-discord.js
