Discord Bot — Claude AI Integration

We are looking for an experienced developer to build a Discord support bot for our business using the Claude API. What the bot needs to do: The bot will monitor support ticket channels on our Discord server. When a customer sends a message, the bot waits 2 to 3 minutes after their last message before responding to ensure they've finished typing. If the customer sends another message within that window, the timer resets. The bot should only respond in two situations: A customer is asking to purchase a product via PayPal A customer has bought from our website and is following up on their order The bot must check two conditions before responding: The ticket is in either the uncategorized or orders category The last message in the ticket was sent by the customer, not a team member If either condition isn't met, the bot stays silent. Technical requirements: Discord bot framework Claude API integration (we will provide the full system prompt) Image support — the bot must be able to pass image attachments from Discord messages to the Claude API 2 to 3 minute message delay with timer reset logic Category detection and last-message author detection The bot must be able to search a specified Discord channel to verify website orders by invoice ID or email before responding VM deployment with auto-restart on crash (we will provide VM access) Process manager to keep the bot running 24/7 What we provide: Full system prompt and SOP the bot will use to respond VM access Claude API key What we need from you: Clean, well commented code Brief documentation on how to update the system prompt going forward Please share examples of Discord bots or API integration projects you've built previously. Applicants without relevant experience will not be considered.
