```

**Option B: Run directly with npx (no install required)**

```bash
npx @mahesvara/discord-mcpserver
```

## Usage

### MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Claude Desktop or Claude Code):

**Using globally installed package:**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord": {
      "command": "discord-mcpserver",
      "env": {
        "DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN": "your_bot_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

**Using npx (no install required):**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@mahesvara/discord-mcpserver"],
      "env": {
        "DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN": "your_bot_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Environment Variables

The server supports loading environment variables from a `.env` file in the current directory:

```env
DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here
TRANSPORT=http
PORT=3000
HOST=localhost
```

| Variable | Description | Default |
|----------|-------------|---------|
| `DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN` | Your Discord bot token (required) | - |
| `TRANSPORT` | Transport mode: `stdio` or `http` | `stdio` |
| `PORT` | HTTP server port (when using http transport) | `3000` |
| `HOST` | HTTP server host (use `0.0.0.0` for remote access) | `localhost` |

### HTTP Transport

For remote access, run the server with HTTP transport enabled:

**Linux/macOS:**
```bash
DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your_token TRANSPORT=http PORT=3000 HOST=0.0.0.0 discord-mcpserver
```

**Windows (Command Prompt):**
```cmd
set DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your_token && set TRANSPORT=http && set PORT=3000 && set HOST=0.0.0.0 && discord-mcpserver
```

**Windows (PowerShell):**
```powershell
$env:DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN="your_token"; $env:TRANSPORT="http"; $env:PORT="3000"; $env:HOST="0.0.0.0"; discord-mcpserver
```

**Or use a `.env` file** (works on all platforms):
```bash
discord-mcpserver
```

Then configure your MCP client to connect via HTTP:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "discord": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://your-server-ip:3000/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```
