Discord (Via message)

Use the message tool. No provider-specific discord tool exposed to the agent.

Musts

  • Always: channel: "discord".
  • Respect gating: channels.discord.actions.* (some default off: roles, moderation, presence, channels).
  • Prefer explicit ids: guildId, channelId, messageId, userId.
  • Multi-account: optional accountId.

Guidelines

  • Avoid Markdown tables in outbound Discord messages.
  • Mention users as <@USER_ID>.
  • Prefer Discord components v2 (components) for rich UI; use legacy embeds only when you must.

Targets

  • Send-like actions: to: "channel:<id>" or to: "user:<id>".
  • Message-specific actions: channelId: "<id>" (or to) + messageId: "<id>".

Common Actions (Examples)

Send message:

json
{
  "action": "send",
  "channel": "discord",
  "to": "channel:123",
  "message": "hello",
  "silent": true
}

Send with media:

json
{
  "action": "send",
  "channel": "discord",
  "to": "channel:123",
  "message": "see attachment",
  "media": "file:///tmp/example.png"
}
  • Optional silent: true to suppress Discord notifications.

Send with components v2 (recommended for rich UI):

json
{
  "action": "send",
  "channel": "discord",
  "to": "channel:123",
  "message": "Status update",
  "components": "[Carbon v2 components]"
}
  • components expects Carbon component instances (Container, TextDisplay, etc.) from JS/TS integrations.
  • Do not combine components with embeds (Discord rejects v2 + embeds).

Legacy embeds (not recommended):

json
{
  "action": "send",
  "channel": "discord",
  "to": "channel:123",
  "message": "Status update",
  "embeds": [{ "title": "Legacy", "description": "Embeds are legacy." }]
}
  • embeds are ignored when components v2 are present.

React:

json
{
  "action": "react",
  "channel": "discord",
  "channelId": "123",
  "messageId": "456",
  "emoji": "✅"
}

  "message": "fixed typo"
}
json

  "action": "delete",

  "pollOption": ["Pizza", "Sushi", "Salad"],
  "pollMulti": false,
  "pollDurationHours": 24
}

  "action": "search",
  "channel": "discord",
  "guildId": "999",
  "query": "release notes",
  "channelIds": ["123", "456"],
  "limit": 10
}

Presence (often gated):

json
{
  "action": "set-presence",
  "channel": "discord",
  "activityType": "playing",
  "activityName": "with fire",
  "status": "online"
}

Writing Style (Discord)

  • Short, conversational, low ceremony.
  • No markdown tables.
  • Mention users as <@USER_ID>.
