JoBot responds to you in any server channel when you @mention it or reply to one of its messages. Every response is generated by Claude (Anthropic), so you can ask it questions, give it instructions, or have a free-form conversation in plain English.

Starting a conversation

To start a conversation, mention JoBot in any channel it has access to:
@JoBot what's a good album to listen to on a rainy day?
JoBot replies directly to your message. To continue the conversation, reply to JoBot’s response — you don’t need to mention it again. JoBot treats the reply chain as a continuous thread.
1

Mention JoBot

Type @JoBot followed by your message in any channel where the bot is present.
2

Read the response

JoBot replies to your message using Claude. Long responses are split into multiple messages automatically.
3

Continue the thread

Reply directly to any of JoBot’s messages to keep the conversation going. No need to mention it again.

Conversation history

JoBot remembers recent messages in your server to maintain context across a conversation. By default, it keeps up to 40 messages in its history per guild. This means JoBot can reference things you said earlier in the same conversation, follow up on prior requests, and avoid repeating itself. You can change the history limit in your guild settings. See guild settings for details.
Conversation history is per-guild. JoBot tracks context separately for each Discord server it is in.

Direct messages

JoBot does not support direct messages. If you send it a DM, it will reply with a friendly notice letting you know to use it in a server channel instead.

AI persona

JoBot comes with a default persona called JoMusic — a 26-year-old music expert with a witty, sarcastic personality and a particular interest in lesser-known bands. This persona shapes how JoBot phrases its responses and engages in conversation. The system prompt that defines this persona is fully configurable per guild. You can replace it with any persona or set of instructions that fits your server. See guild settings to learn how to update the system prompt.

Memory

JoBot can store and retrieve facts about individual users across conversations. When you mention music preferences, likes, dislikes, or personal details, JoBot may save that information and use it in future responses — for example, remembering that you love metal or that you dislike country music. Stored memories are not private by default. JoBot only marks a memory as private if you explicitly ask it to, or if it determines the information is sensitive.
