Create Your Digital Team with Discord and OpenClaw
Building a remote or async team is hard. You want specialized roles—research, writing, ops—without hiring. Coordination across tools and people gets messy. What if your "team" lived in one place and you could @mention them like colleagues?
The Coordination Problem
You need a researcher, a writer, an analyst, an ops person. Hiring is expensive. Spreading work across five apps and DMs is chaotic. You want one place to delegate, get answers, and run workflows—without the overhead of a full team.
The Solution: Your Digital Team in Discord
OpenClaw agents in a Discord server become your digital team. Each agent is a "team member" you and your collaborators can @mention:
- @researcher — "Find everything on X and summarize by Friday"
- @writer — "Turn these bullets into a blog post"
- @analyst — "Crunch last month's numbers and flag anomalies"
- @ops — "Check staging and restart the API if it's down"
One server. One place to talk to humans and agents. Threads, history, and permissions all in Discord—so your digital team feels like a real one.
How It Works
- Deploy OpenClaw with Clawctl — One or more agents, each with a role and skills.
- Connect Discord — Add your OpenClaw bot(s) to your server; each bot can be a different "team member."
- Define roles — Give each agent a name, avatar, and instructions (research vs. writing vs. ops).
- @mention and delegate — In any channel, tag the agent you need. It replies in thread, runs tools, and hands off to other agents or you.
Your digital team is always on. No standups, no time zones—just ask.
Why Clawctl for Your Digital Team
Multiple agents in Discord mean multiple bots, credentials, and actions. Clawctl gives you:
- Audit logs — Every @mention and agent action recorded
- Sandboxed execution — Agents only access what you allow
- Kill switch — Pause or revoke an agent instantly
- Egress controls — Limit which APIs and tools each "team member" can call
Run your digital team with guardrails—so you can trust it at scale.
