This plugin connects a Discord bot to Claude Code through a locally run MCP server (built on Bun), forwarding incoming Discord messages to Claude and exposing tools to reply, react to, and edit messages. Setup, per the README, involves creating a Discord application/bot, inviting it to a server, installing the plugin, supplying the bot token, and pairing via /discord:access. Access defaults to a pairing flow that can be locked down to an allowlist, with IDs identified by Discord snowflakes and guild channels enabled on an opt-in, per-channel basis. Additional tools let the assistant fetch recent channel history and download message attachments. Further details on DM policies, guild channels, mention detection, and the access.json schema are documented separately in ACCESS.md, referenced by the README.
Overview
According to the README, this is a Claude Code plugin rather than a standalone SaaS: it runs a local MCP server (via Bun) that bridges a Discord bot to Claude Code, forwarding messages and providing reply/react/edit tools alongside built-in access control managed via /discord:access.
