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 y’all 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 3 – Persona System (Updated)

Goal: Create a dynamic personality engine using a JSON file for flexible identity control.

• Replace hardcoded PERSONALITY with a JSON-based persona profile
• Create persona.json to store:
  • Bot name
  • Emoji
  • Style prefix
  • Prompt injection
• Update personality.py to read from persona.json
• Style all AI replies using the loaded persona
• Add !setpersona "<description>" command
  • Updates persona.json dynamically from a user-provided string

📁 This unlocks full customization without editing code or restarting the bot.

🧬 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 Ollama’s 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:

  ollama create delta -f ./models/delta/Modelfile
