Interactive AI Discord Bots

To leverage AI LLM's APIs to create interactive messaging and responses, we present a solution in the form of Discord bots that can interact with community members. This overview covers how to implement these bots using Anthropic's Claude and Google Gemini LLM APIs.

Origin

Discord offers extensive capabilities through its Development Apps. The goal of this project is to add a capability of integration AI LLM's into a community space (Discord) for sharing and having a bit of fun with ideas and topics generated using AI.

Hosting Platform

The bots are hosted on Linux (Ubuntu) VPS servers, inside of docker containers - ensuring a stable and scalable environment.

Programming Language

Python is used for developing these bots, leveraging its rich set of libraries and ease of integration with APIs.

Claude Discord Bot Overview

The Claude Discord Bot leverages Anthropic's Claude API to provide interactive and intelligent responses within a Discord server. The bot is designed to be user-friendly, offering various commands and functionalities to enhance community engagement.

Features

Integrates with the Anthropic Claude API to provide conversational responses
Supports syntax highlighting for code blocks in responses using Discord Markdown
Handles long responses by splitting them into multiple pages
Maintains conversation history for each user to provide context-aware responses
Implements retry logic with exponential backoff to handle API errors and overload situations
Logs errors and unhandled exceptions for debugging purposes
Utilizes environment variables for secure storage of sensitive information (e.g., API keys)
Supports easy customization and extension with modular code structure

Setup

Clone the repository to your local machine:
