Discord

Use this skill when implementing or automating Discord integrations.

Pick the right approach

1. Incoming webhooks (best for one-way posting)

   • Good for CI notifications, alerts, build status, etc.
   • No bot user needed.
   • See: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook#execute-webhook

2. Bot token + REST API (two-way / richer automation)

   • Use when you need to post as a bot, manage channels, read history, moderate, etc.
   • REST API base: https://discord.com/api/v10
   • Most REST calls use Authorization: Bot <token>.

3. Interactions / slash commands (user-invoked commands)

   • Use application commands and interaction webhooks.
   • Typically requires running a web server to receive interactions and respond quickly.
