Prompt template

Search my Discord servers and DMs for topic and tell me what was said, by whom and when, with links to the messages.

Overview

Years of decisions, links and answers sit in Discord: in the servers you follow and in your DMs. Discord's search finds a word in one server or one conversation at a time. What you want is to ask "what did we decide about pricing, and who said it?" across all of them, and get an answer.

Why it's hard

Discord gives an AI no door to your own account. There is no official MCP server and no public API for your own account. A bot sees only the servers it was invited to, never your DMs, and the bot API has no message search. The data package holds only the messages you sent. Tools that read everything do it with your user token or your password.

How Reduck does it

Reduck is an MCP server that ChatGPT, Claude or any MCP client can call. Its Discord scripts run in your own Chrome, where you are already signed in, so your assistant reaches what you reach:

  1. It lists your servers and searches each one with Discord's own search, using the words and filters it picks from your question.
  2. It lists your DMs, one-to-one and group, and reads the conversations that matter.
  3. It reads the hits and the messages around them, and answers with who said what, when, and a link to each message.

There is no bot, no token and no password. Reading and searching change nothing in your account.

What to ask

  • "What did people say about the v2 launch in my Discord servers this week?"
  • "Find the message where someone shared the Figma link for the new onboarding, and who posted it."
  • "Summarize my DMs with Alex from the last month."
  • "Which servers talked about our pricing change, and was it positive?"

Limits

  • Discord's search runs one server per call, up to 25 hits per call; the agent searches server by server.
  • DMs are read, not searched with the search box: the agent reads the conversation and finds the passage.
  • Chrome must be open and signed in to Discord when your assistant runs a search.

Who it's for

  • Founders and community managers who live in Discord
  • Developers who follow many open-source and product servers
  • Anyone who has lost a message and wants to ask for it in plain words

FAQ

Not on their own. Discord has no official MCP server and no public API for your own account, so the assistant needs a way in: a file you exported, or an MCP server. Reduck is an MCP server that lets ChatGPT or Claude search your servers and read your DMs as you.
Only a tool that acts as your account can reach them. A bot never sees your DMs, and Discord's data package holds only the messages you sent. Reduck lists your DMs and reads them in your own signed-in Chrome; the assistant then finds the passage in what it read.
It includes the messages you sent, in servers and in DMs, not the replies you received. Discord says the package can take up to 30 days to arrive.
Discord's search covers one server or one conversation at a time, and so does every tool built on it. With Reduck the agent lists your servers and runs the search in each one, then answers with the hits from all of them.
Discord's terms restrict automated user accounts ("self-bots"), and tools that export with your user token say they can get an account banned. Reduck does not use your token or your password. Each script runs only when you or your agent asks, one at a time, in your own browser. Decide whether that fits how you use Discord; for a server you own, a bot is the route Discord designs for.
The search itself is Discord's, by words and filters (from:, in:, has:, before:, during:). The understanding comes from your assistant: it picks the words to search, reads the hits and the conversations around them, and answers in plain language.
