    FAQ

    Questions about OpenAI + Discord.

    How do I build a GPT bot in Discord?
    Discord New Message trigger filtered to bot mentions or specific channels → OpenAI Chat Completion with the user's prompt + recent channel context → Discord Send Message in a thread with the response.
    Can GPT moderate Discord content?
    Yes. On New Message, run OpenAI Moderation endpoint (free!) to classify content as flagged or safe. Pair with GPT for nuanced policy checks (e.g., off-topic, spam, low-effort). Auto-delete or warn based on the result.
    How do I keep conversational context across multiple Discord messages?
    Store recent message history per channel in Supabase / Redis. On each new message, fetch the last N messages, pass as messages array to OpenAI. Use Discord thread_ts to scope context.
    Can GPT summarize busy Discord channels?
    Yes. Scheduled daily at 5pm: List Messages for the channel for the last 24h → OpenAI Chat with "summarize today's discussion in 5 bullets and 1 paragraph" → post back to the channel as a thread.
    How do I avoid GPT responding to its own messages (loop)?
    Filter the Discord trigger to skip messages where author.bot = true. Otherwise the bot replies to itself indefinitely.
    What rate limits matter for a GPT + Discord bot?
    Discord: 50 messages/sec per channel, 5 per channel per user. OpenAI: per-minute and per-day token limits by tier. For busy communities, queue or rate-limit on your side to stay well under both.
