CodeRabbit Agent for Discord brings CodeRabbit's coding assistant into public Discord channels for eligible open-source communities. Community members can ask CodeRabbit to investigate repository context, answer implementation questions, prepare code changes, and open pull requests from the conversation where maintainers are already coordinating work.

<Warning>
  CodeRabbit Agent for Discord is limited to public channel usage during launch.
</Warning>

## Availability

CodeRabbit Agent for Discord is available during launch for selected open-source communities that have a GitHub repository with at least 1,000 stars.

During this launch period, CodeRabbit Agent for Discord is unpaid, but usage is capped per user or organization. If your community reaches a cap, CodeRabbit may pause new Discord-initiated work until more usage is available.

## What you can do

* Ask questions about repository behavior, recent changes, or implementation options
* Turn a Discord discussion into an implementation plan
* Ask CodeRabbit to prepare a pull request after the community agrees on the direction
* Keep technical discussion in public community channels where maintainers and contributors can inspect the context

## How pull request authorship works

When CodeRabbit opens a pull request from Discord, the pull request is authored by the connected user's personal GitHub account. This keeps contribution history and repository permissions aligned with the person who asked CodeRabbit to create the change.

Before asking CodeRabbit to open a pull request, make sure the connected GitHub account has permission to create branches and pull requests in the target repository.
