lokalny-bot

lokalny-bot is a Discord bot with two sources of answers: Claude from a Claude Code subscription and models running locally in Ollama. You call it with a ping and a question, and parameters before the text change the model and how it answers.

Claude does not go through the API but through a subprocess of the Claude Code CLI signed in on that account. The subprocess gets no tools at all, because it is meant to talk, not act as an agent with disk access, and it does not load the account's settings, hooks or plugins. The prompt goes to standard input, so neither quotes nor the length of the text can break the call.

Every channel has its own session with an id derived from the channel id, so the conversation survives a bot restart. The channel history goes into the session once, when it is created, and from then on the session itself carries the conversation.

The model list is never written into the code: the bot asks Ollama for it on every use, together with each model's capabilities, so a newly pulled model shows up in the help on its own. A model name can be shortened to its family or an alias.

The first word that is not a parameter starts the text, so a dash inside a sentence stays plain text. For parameters the Claude CLI does not support, the bot says so plainly under the answer instead of pretending they worked.

The /help command lists the help topics, and /help with a topic name explains one parameter. The bot listens only to the configured operators, and without a token or an operator it stops and says why.
