Discord MCP

Hosted MCP server

View Discord MCP

Let Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients search and act in Discord through a bot you create and select during consent. You control its identity, permissions, and tool approvals.

Search and read: messages, pins, threads, reactions, and attachments your bot can access.
Post and organize: replies, edits, threads, reactions, files, and polls through your bot.
Permission-aware: Discord channel permissions define the bot's reach. Message Content is required for useful reads.
Nexus setup: ships as an optional companion with guided OAuth for Claude Desktop.
Direct setup: connect the hosted endpoint from ChatGPT or another compatible MCP client.

Protocol

MCP Connector

Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf & more

The official Archivist Campaign MCP gives any MCP-compatible client direct, OAuth-secured read/write access to your campaign data: sessions, characters, quests, journals, and entities. It is officially listed in the Anthropic Connectors Directory.

This is the campaign-data connector. For Discord channels and messages, use Discord MCP above. Access follows your Archivist plan, and Archivist Nexus requires an active subscription.

FAQ

Does Archivist have a ChatGPT app?

Yes, an official app in the ChatGPT app directory, with OAuth-backed read and write access to your campaign.

Can the MCP server write data, or just read it?

Both. Grant the agent_write scope to create and update characters, quests, and journals from your AI assistant, not just query them.

What is the difference between Archivist Campaign MCP and Discord MCP?

Archivist Campaign MCP brings structured Archivist data into Claude, ChatGPT, and other clients and can write approved updates back. Discord MCP lets the client search and post in Discord through a bot you control. It does not write to Archivist. Use both when a workflow needs campaign history and a place to post the result.

Does Archivist integrate with Notion or Gemini Notebook?

Notion ships its own official MCP server, and Gemini Notebook (formerly NotebookLM) has community-built ones. Bundle either alongside Archivist's MCP through Nexus, Claude, or ChatGPT.

What is the fastest way to connect Claude Desktop?

Archivist Nexus. A guided installer that wires Claude Desktop's config automatically. No JSON editing required.

Why does Archivist have an MCP server and API?

It's your campaign data, not ours, so it shouldn't be stuck inside Archivist. That's why we built a hosted MCP server (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and more) and a REST API for everything else.
