### Quick Setup (for self hosting)

1. If you're using Linux, or another platform that doesn't allow packages install through Pip, make a virtual environment. `python -m venv path/to/venv` and activate it with `source path/to/venv/bin/activate.fish` (if using fish, use activate while using bash or sh). If you're using Windows, install Python. If you're using macOS, check that you have Python 3 installed. If not, install it.

2. Run `pip install anthropic discord python-dotenv` to install the Anthropic API, Discord API and .env file interpreter.

3. Rename .envexample to .env and edit it with your Anthropic and Discord API keys. Get them at https://console.anthropic.com and https://discord.dev (make sure to enable privelaged intents for messages) **Be sure to not share these with anyone, as you might allow someone to use your Anthropic credits or send messages through your Discord bot!**

4. Add your personalities to the .env file

5. Run 'python3 main.py' to start the bot! If all goes well your bot should come online!
