API-Referenz

Verwalte Kovu und deinen Discord-Server mit eigenen Skripten. Das sind dieselben 34 Operationen, die deine KI-App über Kovus MCP-Server bekommt.

API-Schlüssel erstellen OpenAPI-Dokument (API v1.0.0)

Grundlagen

Authentifizierung

Erstelle einen persönlichen API-Schlüssel unter Entwickler & KI und sende ihn als Bearer-Token. Ein Schlüssel handelt als du: Er funktioniert nur auf Servern, die du verwalten kannst, und nur in den Scopes, die du ihm gegeben hast.

Deine Server auflisten

curl "https://kovu.gg/api/v1/servers" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KOVU_API_KEY"

Änderungen sind zwei Aufrufe

Endpunkte mit der Endung /proposals ändern nichts. Sie prüfen deine Eingabe und geben ein Änderungsset mit lesbarer Vorschau und einer changeId zurück. Wende es innerhalb von 15 Minuten mit POST /guilds/{guildId}/changes/{changeId}/apply an. Ein Änderungsset lässt sich einmal anwenden, und nur mit dem Schlüssel, der es vorgeschlagen hat.

Antworten und Seitenaufteilung

Erfolg ist { "data": … }. Fehler sind { "error": { "code", "message", "issues" } } mit einem stabilen code. Lange Listen nehmen limit und cursor; übergib den erhaltenen nextCursor, um die nächste Seite zu bekommen.

Propose channel permission changes

POST/guilds/{guildId}/channels/{channelId}/permission-proposals

Scope: server:writeMCP-Tool: propose_permission_overwriteGibt ein Änderungsset zurück

Prepare changing what a role (or member) may do in one channel or category. allow, deny and inherit list permission names and are merged into the existing overwrite (others stay as they are); removeOverwrite: true deletes the whole overwrite. For @everyone use the server id as targetId. Private channel recipe, in this order: allow ViewChannel for Kovu itself (targetType "member", targetId = kovu.userId from get_channel_permissions) and for the roles that should see the channel, then deny ViewChannel for @everyone. Changes that would take View Channel, Manage Permissions or Manage Channels away from Kovu in the channel are refused, because Kovu couldn’t manage or undo anything there afterwards. You need Manage Channels and Manage Permissions there and can only allow or deny permissions you have yourself; Kovu too. Server-wide permissions like Administrator can’t be set per channel. Read get_channel_permissions first. Returns a preview with a changeId; call apply_change after the user agrees.
