1. Sign in to your account at replit.com. On the dashboard, click + Create Something New.
2. In the prompt, describe what you want to build - for example, "A Discord business assistant bot that answers questions, sends reminders, and manages a server." Click the Arrow button to run. The Agent automatically sets up the environment.
3. Go to discord.com/developers/applications, click New Application, name your bot, and set up for your uses and preferences. Under the Bot tab, click Reset Token and copy your token.
4. When prompted in Replit, paste your token in the Agent workspace, then click Continue and + Add Account to Secrets to confirm. Alternatively, click the Secrets tab in the left sidebar, add a new key called TOKEN, and paste your token as the value.
5. Click the Open Files icon in the top-right corner and click File tree. Review the generated project structure - Replit creates a main.py and a pyproject.toml by default.
6. Click discord_main.py to open it in the editor and review your bot logic.
7. To add a new command, ask the Agent - for example, "Add a command that posts a weekly sales summary to the general channel."
8. Check the Console for confirmation that the bot is online, or open Discord and test it directly in your server.
