It may not be a complete solution but my [discord bot](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discord-bot-construction-kit/122530) includes a command to copy x prior messages to Discourse. If your Discord user logs into Discourse using Discord sign-in, it will even match the user..

> [@Discord Bot Construction Kit robot](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discord-bot-construction-kit/122530/1):

> Allows you to copy Discord message history to your Discourse instance from within Discord chat. This can cope with 1,000’s of messages in one go (but for that volume will take time).
