+Discord bot event pings
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Our Discord bot supports automatically sending messages about upcoming events
+on `the LLVM community calendar <https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/[email protected]>`_
+to Discord. This behavior is controlled on a per-event basis, by metadata in the
+event's description. Each piece of metadata should be on its own line in the
+event description.
+
+The currently supported metadata is:
+
+- ``discord-bot-event-type`` - **Required**. Specifies the event type. Valid
+  values are ``office-hours`` and ``sync-up``.
+- ``discord-bot-channels-to-mention`` - **Sometimes required**. A
+  comma-separated list of Discord channels to post notifications in. If your
+  ``discord-bot-event-type`` is ``office-hours``, the ``#office-hours`` channel
+  will be implicitly appended to this list (ergo, you don't need to specify this
+  item). Otherwise, you must specify a value here.
+- ``discord-bot-mention`` - **Optional**. A comma-separated list of people to
+  ping on each event notification. All names mentioned must be Discord
+  usernames, and must have a leading ``@``. e.g., ``@foo, @bar``.
+- ``discord-bot-reminder-time-before-start`` - **Optional**. The number of
+  minutes before the beginning of an event to send a ping. This should be
+  formatted as an integer. Defaults to 30.
+- ``discord-bot-message`` - **Optional**. Text to append to all event pings.
+
+An example of an event description with valid metadata is::
+
+  Regular office hours to chat with people about LLVM! We can help with
+  questions, troubleshooting bugs, etc.
+
+  discord-bot-channels-to-mention: #beginners, #foo
+  discord-bot-event-type: office-hours
+  discord-bot-mention: @gburgessiv, @bar
+  discord-bot-message: Come join us for office hours!
+  discord-bot-reminder-time-before-start: 5
+
+This metadata will prompt the Discord bot to:
+
+* send pings 5 minutes before the given event starts, mentioning ``@gburgessiv``
+  and ``@bar`` in the ping
+* send the pings to the ``#beginners``, ``#foo``, and ``#office-hours`` channels
+* include the text "Come join us for office hours!" in the ping
+
+A few minutes before sending a ping, the bot will double-check that the event
+hasn't been cancelled.
+
+If you need help troubleshooting, or have feature requests/questions, please
+feel free to ping @gburgessiv!
