It provides ready-to-use message classes for encoding and decoding Discord's internal data formats, particularly user settings like PreloadedUserSettings and FrecencyUserSettings. The package is maintained by tracking changes in Discord's protobufs and releasing updates automatically when new definitions are detected.\n\nThe package depends on protobuf and mypy-protobuf for runtime support. It is designed for developers who need to work with Discord's wire protocol or settings data outside the official Discord API\u2014for example, building custom clients, analyzing settings structures, or integrating with Discord's internal message formats. The protobufs are provided as compiled Python modules ready for import and use.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building custom Discord clients or tools that need to work with Discord's internal protobuf formats. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, carries a permissive MIT license, and has no known security vulnerabilities. However, be aware that reverse-engineered protobufs may change without notice as Discord updates its client, and you should verify compatibility with your use case before relying on it in production."},"id":"discord-protos","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/discord-protos","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/discord-protos.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/discord-protos/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-14","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"discord-protos","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Discord user settings protobufs."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":110523,"position":12454,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.2.296"}
