ShardClientUtil

.broadcastEval(fn, options?)

fn: (client: ShardClientUtilOptions["client"], context?: unknown) => T | Promise<T>, options?: { context?: unknown; } → Promise<T[]>

Evaluate fn on every shard process (including this one via parent fan-out). Captured closure variables are NOT available — pass them via context.

await client.shard.broadcastEval(fn);

.fetchClientValues(prop)

prop: string → Promise<unknown[]>

await client.shard.fetchClientValues(prop);

.notifyReady()

→ void

Signal the parent that this child is ready (call after client.login).

client.shard.notifyReady();

.requestSpawnToken(shardId)

shardId: number → Promise<void>

Request a spawn/identify token from the parent manager before connecting shards. Required so children share the host IP identify budget.

await client.shard.requestSpawnToken(shardId);

.respawn(options?)

options?: { delay?: number; } → Promise<void>

await client.shard.respawn();

.send(data)

data: unknown → void

client.shard.send(data);

.shardIdForGuildId(guildId)

guildId: string → number

client.shard.shardIdForGuildId(guildId);
