Any of Discord's 7 triggers in the catalog, including New Forum Message, New Forum Post, New Mention and New Message Posted to Channel. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in HackMD when something happens in Discord? Any of HackMD's 6 actions, including Create Note, Update Note, Get My Note and Get My Notes. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from HackMD to Discord? HackMD has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Discord. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads HackMD's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Discord or HackMD? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use Discord and HackMD without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
