Having problem is using prefixed commands with Cogs

[keen nova]

discord.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'commands.bills' raised an error: AttributeError: 'Bot' object has no attribute 'add_command'

I am using cogs with slash commands and this works perfectly

but whenever i want to use prefix with cogs then i have to face difficulties and unexpexted errors

i have only this little code

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

class BILLS(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.command()
    async def hello(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        await ctx.respond("hello.>!")


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(BILLS(bot))

and also in my main.py

bot.load_extension("commands.bills")

In your main file what type of bot are you using?

[keen nova]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import sqlite3

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=".", intents=intents)

# Connect to SQLite database (this will create a new database file if it doesn't exist)
connection = sqlite3.connect("darksinventory.db")
cursor = connection.cursor()


load_dotenv() # load all the variables from the env file
bot = discord.Bot()

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"{bot.user} is ready and online!")


bot.load_extension("commands.darkCal")
bot.load_extension("commands.price")
bot.load_extension("commands.bills")


bot.run(os.getenv('BOT_TOKEN'))

this is my main file

Do you realise you're overwriting your bot instance?

[keen nova]

Umm where bot = discord.Bot()

[remote birch]

bot = commands.Bot() and then
bot = discord.Bot()

[remote birch]
