Discord Hub Builder

Build a complete Discord AI command center server from scratch using the Discord REST API. Use when a user wants to set up a professional Discord server for...

Builds a complete AI command center Discord server via API. No manual steps.

What Gets Built

Categories & Channels:

• COMMAND CENTER → #daily-brief, #task-queue
• AGENT CHANNELS → #agent-openclaw, #agent-perplexity, #agent-manus
• RESEARCH & OUTPUTS → #financial-briefs, #content-drafts, #research-archive
• OPERATIONS → #agent-logs, #ops-notes, #personal

Roles: Agent (blue), Reviewer (green)

Workflow Cards: Pinned in each agent channel with TOOL / TRIGGER / INPUT / OUTPUT / FREQUENCY

Prerequisites

Before running, confirm the user has:

1. A Discord bot — created at https://discord.com/developers/applications
2. Bot permissions: Manage Channels, Manage Roles, Send Messages, Manage Messages (for pinning)
3. Bot invited to the server — use OAuth2 URL with bot scope + above permissions
4. Guild ID — right-click server name → Copy Server ID (Developer Mode must be on)
5. Bot token — from the Bot tab in developer portal

If the user doesn't have these, walk through setup before running.

Execution

Dry run first (always)

python3 scripts/build_hub.py --token BOT_TOKEN --guild GUILD_ID --dry-run

Show the user the preview. Confirm before live run.

Live run

python3 scripts/build_hub.py --token BOT_TOKEN --guild GUILD_ID

The script:

• Creates roles (skips if already exist by name)
• Creates all categories and channels
• Posts and pins workflow cards in agent channels
• Prints channel IDs on completion

After Build

Tell the user:

1. Set channel-specific permissions manually for #task-queue (Owner-only send) and readonly channels — Discord's permission API requires role IDs which vary per server
2. To add more agent channels: copy an existing agent channel block in the script and re-run
3. Workflow cards can be edited by finding the pinned message in each agent channel

Error Handling

If the script fails mid-run:

• Re-running is safe — roles skip if they exist by name
• Channels don't have dedup logic; re-run will create duplicates — delete extras manually or use the dry-run to check state first
• Rate limit errors (429): add time.sleep(1) between calls or wait and retry
