# AI Discord Bot
## 👤 What It Is
A self-hosted, always-online Discord friend that feels like a fun, social member of the group — not a bot. Its job is to stimulate conversations, keep things lighthearted, and make the server feel alive, even during quiet hours.
🧠 Primary Goals
* Boost server engagement organically
* Act like a real person with jokes, roasts, and casual banter
* Share daily messages and eventually auto-post memes
* Be customizable, self-hostable, and monetizable via hosting
## ✨ Core Vibes
* Feels like a homie, not a bot
* Casual, sometimes spicy, often funny
* Always online and paying attention
* Posts stuff like:
* “@everyone yall still alive or is this a ghost town? 👻”
* “New meme dropped: [image] 🔥”
## 🔥 Updated Feature Focus
* !chat → Casual convos with LLM
* !roast → Roast your friends
* Scheduled daily messages (sassy, motivational, or chaotic)
* Future: Meme hunting & posting (from Reddit, X, Discord meme pages, etc.)
## 💡 Naming Ideas (More Intuitive & Fun)
| **Name** | **Vibe** |
|-------------------|----------------------------------|
| **ServerMate** | Feels social + simple |
| **PartyBot** | For fun-focused servers |
| **MemeBoi / MemeGal** | If meme-focused |
| **BanterBot** | Pure vibes and chaos |
| **ChatCrew** | Feels like a squad member |
| **VibeCheck** | Funny, catchy, modern |
| **HomieBot** | Friendly + clear purpose |
| **PingPal** | Low-key but memorable |
| **Instigator** | Edgy, fun, accurate |
## 🛠️ AlphaBot MVP Build Schedule
A structured build plan for developing and deploying the AlphaBot Discord companion.
---
### ✅ ~~Day 1 Core Bot Setup~~
- [x] Create Discord bot in Developer Portal
- [x] Enable Message Content Intent
- [x] Set up `.env` with token
- [x] Write `bot.py` with basic `!ping` command
- [x] Invite bot to server and confirm it replies
---
### 🔄 ~~Day 2 AI Integration~~
- [x] Write `ai.py` to connect to Ollama/OpenAI
- [x] Set up API call + prompt formatting
- [x] Add `!chat` command to relay messages
- [x] Create `.env` key for `OLLAMA_API_URL`
---
### 🎭 ~~Day 3 Persona System (Updated)~~
> Goal: Create a dynamic personality engine using a JSON file for flexible identity control.
- [x] Replace hardcoded `PERSONALITY` with a JSON-based persona profile
- [x] Create `persona.json` to store:
- Bot name
- Emoji
- Style prefix
- Prompt injection
- [x] Update `personality.py` to read from `persona.json`
- [x] Style all AI replies using the loaded persona
- [x] Add `!setpersona "<description>"` command
- Updates `persona.json` dynamically from a user-provided string
- (Optional) Sets bot name using Discord API
- [x] **Test live personality switching via command**
- Not working. Personality is being loaded but it doesnt actually work
![Delta Lives Screenshot](docs/images/delta-lives.png)
📁 *This unlocks full customization without editing code or restarting the bot.*
---
### 🔥 ~~Day 4 Roast Command~~
- [x] Build `!roast @user` with AI-generated replies
- [x] Style roast output with selected personality
- [x] Add cooldown to prevent spam (optional)
- [x] Fix Emojis (optional) --- I think this is now fixed
- Emojis from the settings.yml file are broken. Please fix
---
### 🕒 Day 5b AI Scheduled Messages & Smarter Posting 🧠
> Goal: Let Delta post her own AI-generated chaos on a schedule, instead of just scripted messages.
#### ✅ Core Features
- [x] Replace static messages in `scheduler.py` with AI-generated ones via `get_ai_response()`
- Use prompt like: *“Post something sassy, attention-grabbing, or chaotic to wake up the server.”*
- Maintain current persona system for tone consistency
- [x] Add `settings.yml` option to control post mode:
- `mode: preset` static messages only
- `mode: ai` generate new message via LLM
- ~~`mode: mixed` random chance between the two~~
- [ ] ~~Log each scheduled post and mode used for debugging~~ - Pushed back, not a critical feature right now
---
#### ⚙️ Probabilistic Scheduler (Mode 2 Optional)
> Post when it feels "natural" low chance at first, rising over time.
- [x] Add `probabilistic_scheduler.py` or integrate into `scheduler.py`
- [x] Configurable parameters:
- `start_chance: 0.05` (5% per hour)
- `increase_per_hour: 0.05`
- `decay_on_post: 0.02`
- [x] ~~Reset chance after post, store `last_post_time`~~ (this is using probability decay which is a bit better)
---
~~#### 💤 Inactivity-Aware Scheduler (Mode 3 Stretch Goal)~~ (Temporarily Passed, Probabilistic scheduler is really good for now)
> Posts when the **server** or a **user** has been inactive for too long.
- [ ] Monitor `message.created_at` timestamps per channel or user
- [ ] After `X minutes` of silence, apply probabilistic logic to post
- [ ] Configurable thresholds in `settings.yml`
---
### 🛠 Example: settings.yml Additions
```yaml
scheduler:
mode: ai # Options: preset, ai, mixed
interval_minutes: 60
probabilistic:
enabled: false
start_chance: 0.05
increase_per_hour: 0.05
decay_on_post: 0.02
inactivity:
enabled: false
threshold_minutes: 120
```
---
### 🐳 ~~Day 6 Dockerization~~
- [x] Write `Dockerfile` and `docker-compose.yml`
- [x] Test local build and `.env` passthrough
- [ ] (Optional) Add docker-compose.yml for repeatable builds across machines `added but not tested`
- [ ] (Optional) Document how to run with volume mounts if persistence is needed
- [ ] (Optional) containerize Ollama model if running locally `not likely to happen, part of the reason this works is thanks to a separate Ollama instance`
---
### 💰 Day 7+ Monetization Prep (Optional)
- [ ] Add donation/promo message in daily post
- [ ] Plan hosting model for non-technical users
- [ ] Write self-host instructions in `README.md`
---
### 🧬 Final Day Delta Modelfile Integration
> Goal: Make Delta self-contained by baking her personality directly into an Ollama Modelfile.
This final step removes the need for runtime prompt injection by turning Delta into her **own model** using Ollamas custom model system.
#### ✅ Tasks
- [ ] Create a `Modelfile` for Delta inside `models/delta/`
- [ ] Set `FROM llama3` or other base model
- [ ] Add personality using the `SYSTEM` directive
- [ ] Tune parameters:
- `temperature` for flair (suggested: `0.85`)
- `num_ctx` for longer memory (suggested: `4096`)
- `stop` tokens like `User:` to avoid rambling
- [ ] Define a conversation `TEMPLATE` that ensures in-character replies
- [ ] Build the model:
```bash
ollama create delta -f ./models/delta/Modelfile
---
### ✅ MVP Features (Core Bot Experience)
These are the must-have features to make the bot functional, fun, and engaging.
