AutoGPT Discord

🎮 Using our Discord

➡️ Join here! ⬅️

Note: If you just created your Discord account, you'll need to wait a couple of hours before you can join the server. This is an anti-bot security measure. If you got banned due to this, it's an IP ban, so you'll also be banned on your original account. Contact our community administrator Bently (@bentlybro) if you're locked out and he'll sort you out.

The public AutoGPT Discord guild serves multiple purposes:

  • Connecting users with fellow users, to exchange experiences and insights
  • Providing users with a direct help line if the documentation is of no help
  • Providing a communication channel for people who are actively contributing to the project, accelerating coordination and development
  • Connecting users with developers, allowing them to get advanced technical support, which also serves as useful feedback for the developers
  • Connecting developers with users; giving them insight into the target audience
  • Providing the development team with a testing/proving ground for new features

Help

If you have read the user documentation but still need help with setting up or using AutoGPT, we have two dedicated channels to assist you:

Please don't post in the #dev- channels with questions about setting up or using the application. We do our best to be helpful, and reserve the right to remove off-topic posts.

Communication Guidelines

Discord is great for information that is more transient:

  • touching base and chatting with other users / devs
  • getting help / figuring out problems together
  • discussing ideas
  • hanging out in the voice/video chat rooms
  • discussing development topics

GitHub is great for more-persistent information.

  • filing a bug / feature-request issue (after you've used Discord to discuss)
  • contributing persistent information to a pull-request (please still prefer to keep chat on Discord)
  • MAKING a pull-request

Do your best to figure out where to engage. And do not worry, we are trying to figure it out too.

Discord Conventions & Tips

  • If you're contributing, please align your nickname/handle on Discord with your GitHub username, and include your timezone, e.g.:
    fooNickname -> myGitHubName (GMT+3)
    fooNickName -> fooNickName / myGitHubName (GMT+3)

    You can change this in your Discord Settings -> Profiles -> Server Profiles.

  • Please put things in the most sensible place. If we all do this, we are golden.

  • Code-piece (within a line of text) use ` on either end of your code

  • Code-blocks (multiline) use ```python
    then ``` on a last seperate line to end the block
    this way you will get beautiful syntax highlighting

  • Use Discord Timestamps for scheduling. To get current stamps click here

  • If it helps someone else, react 👍 to acknowledge you have read something

  • If you want to spawn a thread (and cannot) ask a community mod

  • We use Threads.

    • If you're in a channel and want to see the threads, there's a #💬 icon on the top right of your Discord window.
    • Click it to see all the threads for this channel
    • You can JOIN a thread, to do this right click the thread and choose 'join'.
      This will make the thread appear under the channel, and you can see conversation in it!
  • If you want your DMs alongside channels-view, you can use the Desktop Discord client and WebUI together (or simply multiple WebUIs windows)
