gavrielc 00fb1bee4a chore(skills): rename add-*-v2 → add-* and drop dead v1 channel skills
Renamed 13 skill folders to drop the -v2 suffix (the v2/v1 distinction
isn't load-bearing anymore — there is no v1 runtime). Deleted the four
v1 channel skills that occupied the rename target paths (add-discord,
add-slack, add-telegram, add-whatsapp); they targeted src/v1 which is
reference-only per CLAUDE.md.

Skill content still says "v2" in places — that's a follow-up commit.

add-discord-v2 Add Discord bot channel integration to NanoClaw v2 via Chat SDK.

Add Discord Channel

Adds Discord bot support to NanoClaw v2. Discord is built in — no adapter package to install.

Install

v2 trunk doesn't ship channels. This skill copies the Discord adapter in from the channels branch.

Pre-flight (idempotent)

Skip to Credentials if all of these are already in place:

  • src/channels/discord.ts exists
  • src/channels/index.ts contains import './discord.js';
  • @chat-adapter/discord is listed in package.json dependencies

Otherwise continue. Every step below is safe to re-run.

1. Fetch the channels branch

git fetch origin channels

2. Copy the adapter

git show origin/channels:src/channels/discord.ts > src/channels/discord.ts

3. Append the self-registration import

Append to src/channels/index.ts (skip if the line is already present):

import './discord.js';

4. Install the adapter package (pinned)

pnpm install @chat-adapter/discord@4.26.0

5. Build

pnpm run build

Credentials

Create Discord Bot

  1. Go to the Discord Developer Portal
  2. Click New Application and give it a name (e.g., "NanoClaw Assistant")
  3. From the General Information tab, copy the Application ID and Public Key
  4. Go to the Bot tab and click Add Bot if needed
  5. Copy the Bot Token (click Reset Token if you need a new one — you can only see it once)
  6. Under Privileged Gateway Intents, enable Message Content Intent
  7. Go to OAuth2 > URL Generator:
    • Scopes: select bot
    • Bot Permissions: select Send Messages, Read Message History, Add Reactions, Attach Files, Use Slash Commands
  8. Copy the generated URL and open it in your browser to invite the bot to your server

Configure environment

All three values are required — the adapter will fail to start without DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY and DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID.

Add to .env:

DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token
DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID=your-application-id
DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY=your-public-key

Sync to container: mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env

Next Steps

If you're in the middle of /setup, return to the setup flow now.

Otherwise, run /manage-channels to wire this channel to an agent group.

Channel Info

  • type: discord
  • terminology: Discord has "servers" (also called "guilds") containing "channels." Text channels start with #. The bot can also receive direct messages.
  • how-to-find-id: Enable Developer Mode in Discord (Settings > App Settings > Advanced > Developer Mode). Then right-click a server and select "Copy Server ID" for the guild ID, and right-click the text channel and select "Copy Channel ID." The platform ID format used in registration is discord:{guildId}:{channelId} — both IDs are required.
  • supports-threads: yes
  • typical-use: Interactive chat — server channels or direct messages
  • default-isolation: Same agent group for your personal server. Separate agent group for servers with different communities or where different members have different information boundaries.
