# AI agent to control Discord via text commands and MCP
This automation template enables natural language control of a Discord server through an external chat interface. Built on n8n and LangChain, it implements a tool-enabled AI agent powered by OpenAI GPT-4o and connected to Discord via the MCP protocol over SSE. The workflow triggers on incoming messages and operates as an autonomous agent.
## Who it´s for
- Developers building AI agents for Discord management
- Discord server admins who want to use voice/text commands
- Automation specialists integrating external systems with Discord via natural language interface
## What the automation does
- Triggers on incoming chat messages
- Sends command text to OpenAI GPT-4o with tool-calling capability
- Uses a LangChain agent to interpret intent and select actions
- Communicates with Discord server via MCP client over SSE
- Executes actions: assign roles, create channels, moderation tasks, etc.
- Returns execution results back to the chat
## What´s included
- Ready-to-use n8n workflow
- Trigger and handler logic based on LangChain
- Integrations with OpenAI API and Discord via MCP (SSE)
- Basic setup and adaptation guide
## Requirements for setup
- n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud)
- OpenAI API access with GPT-4o enabled
- Configured MCP server for Discord with SSE endpoint
