How to configure Hermes Agent Discord?

Hermes Agent is connected to Discord, which is suitable for putting agents into server channels for long-term use. Recently, some people in the community have shared their experience of deploying and accessing Discord on VPS: first run through the installation and setup, then configure the gateway, and finally specify the channel and allow users.

Basic process

1. Create a bot in the Discord Developer Portal.
2. Get the bot token and invite the bot to the server.
3. Run hermes gateway setup and select Discord.
4. Configure DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS and DISCORD_HOME_CHANNEL.
5. Launch hermes gateway and test it in your channel.

Common stuck points

If the channel does not reply, first check whether the bot is in the channel, whether the permissions are sufficient, whether is required, and whether intent is enabled. Scheduled tasks should be actively sent to Discord, and the home channel must be configured.

In a word: Discord configuration focuses on tokens, permissions, allowed users, and home channel.
