Discord Link Ingest

The Discord link ingest is the main way new links enter the lab. A link dropped in Discord is picked up, acknowledged back to the channel, and placed in the pending queue inside LinkCatalog. From there it waits to be catalogued: enriched with a summary, a set of tags, and a note on why it was kept.

The acknowledgement is the important part. The person who dropped the link gets a reply that says, in effect, “seen, filed, here is where it landed.” That closes the loop between the social space where links arrive and the quiet directory where they are stored.

Schedule

Runs on a cron job, frequent enough that a dropped link is acknowledged within minutes, not days.

Trust boundary

Ingest does not catalog. It only files. Cataloguing is a separate step, proposed by agents and confirmed by a human where it matters.
