name: discord-search description: Search public Discord help-channel archives via Answer Overflow MCP (mcpc @discord-search).
Use mcpc @discord-search to search Answer Overflow — a searchable archive of public Discord help channels.
Known server: The Shitty Coders Club — serverId=1456806362351669492. Pass serverId:=1456806362351669492 to scope queries.
If the session is missing, run:
mcpc connect ~/.config/mcpc/mcp.json:discord-search @discord-search
To discover tools:
mcpc @discord-search tools-list --full
mcpc @discord-search grep <term>
mcpc @discord-search tools-get <tool>
Typical workflow:
# 1. Find a server ID (skip if you already know it)
mcpc @discord-search tools-call search_servers query:="shitty coders"
# 2. Search threads
mcpc @discord-search tools-call search_answeroverflow \
query:="ctx.reload" serverId:=1456806362351669492 limit:=25
# 3. Pull full conversation
mcpc @discord-search tools-call get_thread_messages threadId:=<id> limit:=100
# 4. Semantic similarity within a community
mcpc @discord-search tools-call find_similar_threads query:="<question>" serverId:=1456806362351669492
Caveats:
- Searches by message content, not author. Usernames are anonymized in results (e.g.
yucky-gold); real handles only appear when someone is@-mentioned in the message body. - Only public, indexed help channels are searchable.
