discrawl

Use discrawl to mirror Discord guild data into local SQLite, then query it offline.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user wants to:

• search Discord history locally without relying on Discord search
• archive a guild into SQLite for later queries
• inspect recent messages, mentions, channels, or members from a local archive
• import local Discord Desktop cache data for DM recovery/search
• publish or subscribe to a Git-backed Discord archive snapshot

Requirements

• Discord bot token for guild sync, or an existing OpenClaw Discord config
• local Discord Desktop cache files only if using wiretap
• enough local disk for SQLite archive growth

Setup

• Default config: ~/.discrawl/config.toml
• Default database: ~/.discrawl/discrawl.db
• Fastest setup when OpenClaw already has Discord configured:
  • discrawl init --from-openclaw ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json
• Env-only setup:
  • export DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN="..."
  • discrawl init

Common Commands

• Doctor: discrawl doctor
• Initial history: discrawl sync --full
• Incremental refresh: discrawl sync
• Live tail: discrawl tail
• Search: discrawl search "panic nil pointer"
• Recent channel messages: discrawl messages --channel general --hours 24
• Mentions: discrawl mentions --user <user-id>
• DM cache import: discrawl wiretap
• Local DM search: discrawl dms --search "launch checklist"
• Read-only SQL: discrawl sql "select count(*) from messages"
• Git-backed reader mode: discrawl subscribe <private-repo-url>

Notes

• Bot-token sync reads only guilds/channels the bot can access.
• wiretap uses local Discord Desktop cache files only; it does not use a user token.
• Prefer discrawl doctor before a first sync.
• Use sync --full once for backfill, then plain sync for routine refreshes.
