Why does the skill perform a preflight check?

The preflight check validates your tokens and permissions before starting a sync. This ensures you don't hit rate limits or permission errors halfway through a data pull.

How do I configure my credentials for this skill?

You need to add DISCORD_USER_TOKEN or DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN to a .env file in your project root. The skill will automatically detect these during the preflight phase.

Does this skill support Discord Direct Messages (DMs)?

Yes. When a user token is provided, the skill automatically detects that bots cannot access DMs and routes the request through the user-connector to fetch those messages.

What is the benefit of using a Bot token over a User token?

Bot tokens use Discord's official API with significantly higher rate limits and faster synchronization speeds, making them ideal for large community servers.
