Discord Insights

WHY - Purpose & Goals

The Core Problem

There's a lot of valuable context being shared in Clawdbot Discord channels:

• Use cases people are sharing
• Ideas and feature requests
• How people actually use Clawdbot in practice
• New features and announcements from Peter (the creator)
• Tips, tricks, and solutions the community discovers

Without daily extraction, we miss this context and can't learn from it.

What We Want to Learn

1. From the Community:

   • What use cases are people building?
   • What problems are they solving?
   • What features are they requesting?
   • What pain points do they hit?
   • What creative solutions are they sharing?

2. From Peter (Creator):

   • What new features is he announcing?
   • What is he building/testing?
   • What features is he using himself? (Example: voice mode discovery)
   • What's on the roadmap?
   • What issues is he prioritizing?

3. Actionable Insights:

   • Features we should adopt/use
   • Ideas to implement in our own workflows
   • Common patterns to learn from
   • Warnings about bugs or issues to avoid

Daily Workflow

Every day:

1. Export messages from key Discord channels (last 24h)
2. Extract insights: use cases, features, announcements, tips
3. Identify key contributors and message patterns
4. Flag Peter's messages for special attention
5. Deliver summary report: channels + insights + raw data reference

Scripts

daily-insights.sh (PRIMARY)

Main automation script - runs daily analysis and generates PNG summaries.

~/clawd/skills/discord-insights/scripts/daily-insights.sh

Calls analyze-all-channels.py and saves results to:

• /tmp/discord-daily-insights/ (working dir)
• ~/clawd/output/discord-insights/YYYY-MM-DD/ (dated archive)

analyze-all-channels.py

Core analysis engine - generates PNG insights for all channels:

• #models - Model discussions, sentiment, mentions
• #showcase - What people built
• #hardware - Device discussions
• #general - Peter updates, main topics
• #skills - New skills, help requests
• #clawdbot-fails - Funny failures
• #clawdributors - Contributor activity

Output: PNG tables via tablesnap for easy Telegram delivery.

export-daily.sh (runs via cron)

Exports Discord messages for the last 24 hours. Outputs JSON files to ~/clawd/data/discord-exports/YYYY-MM-DD/

Legacy Scripts (deprecated)

• mine-insights.py - Use analyze-all-channels.py instead

Automation

Current Cron Schedule

• Discord export: Daily at 6:00 AM UTC (existing)
• Insights analysis: Run manually or add to cron after export

Recommended Cron Entry

Add to ~/clawd/scripts/cron/ or gateway cron config:

# Discord insights - daily at 9 AM UTC (3h after export)
0 9 * * * /home/henrymascot/clawd/skills/discord-insights/scripts/daily-insights.sh

This gives the export time to complete (6 AM) before analysis runs (9 AM).

2. DiscordChatExporter: ~/clawd/tools/discord-exporter/
3. Export directory: ~/clawd/data/discord-exports/
