You mean slash commands aren't deployed to a new guild?
kindred sleet
Nope. I think it because i dont check "application.commands"... but i just cannot do that...
The guild was create with the commande client.guilds.create()

yeah, besides giving yourself owner and reinviting the bot there isnt much you can do about that
kindred sleet
Ok... it possible to give ownership to the bot after that ?

@kindred sleet You don't need to give up ownership of the server -- if you join the bot's server and have it grant you a role with the "manage guild" permission, you can then re-invite the bot to its own server with the "application.commands" scope. It will then be allowed to update commands, and you can safely exit the server.
this little edge case had me pulling out my hair for a minute as well. it's an unfortunately manual process, but it gets the job done.
