Discord MCP server & Claude connector

Does Discord have an official MCP server or Claude connector?

Community only

As of October 2026, no official Discord MCP server that can act on servers, channels or messages is verified. Discord's developer docs do offer an official MCP server at docs.discord.com/mcp for searching documentation. Community servers such as SaseQ/discord-mcp use a Discord bot token to read and send messages and manage channels.

  • Give AI tools access to Discord's developer documentation

From the publisher’s documentation for the version we checked. Not every tool is listed.

Safety check

  • Pass

    Publisher verified

    Announced in Discord's own developer docs changelog (docs.discord.com), March 9, 2026, at docs.discord.com/mcp.

  • Unknown

    Auth model

    Not described in the changelog entry; a direct fetch of the URL returned HTTP 405, consistent with an MCP endpoint that expects POST.

  • Pass

    Write and delete access

    Described as documentation access only; it does not act on Discord servers.

  • Unknown

    Tool-description injection scan

    Tool descriptions were not reviewed. The docs index carries an llms.txt-style line addressed to AI tools ("Use this file to discover all available pages before exploring further."). That is docs-site boilerplate asking for no action, not a tool description, so it is not counted as injection.

  • Unknown

    Repo maintenance

    No public repository found for the docs server.

FAQ

Does Discord have an official MCP server?

Only for documentation. Discord's changelog lists an MCP server at https://docs.discord.com/mcp for its developer docs. An official server that acts on Discord servers is not verified as of October 2026.

How do AI tools control a Discord server then?

Through community MCP servers that use a Discord bot token and Discord's bot API.

Is a community Discord MCP safe?

It holds a bot token and may expose delete tools, so give the bot minimum permissions and review the server first.

Is Discord a Claude connector?

Not verified; no claude.com connector page was found.

Is there a read-only mode?

None was seen in the SaseQ README. Limit the bot's Discord permissions instead.
