## Edit the character files

Open `agent/src/character.ts` to modify the default character. Uncomment and edit.

### Custom characters

To load custom characters instead:
- Use `pnpm start --characters="path/to/your/character.json"`
- Multiple character files can be loaded simultaneously

### Add clients

```diff
- clients: [],
+ clients: ["twitter", "discord"],
```

## Duplicate the .env.example template

```bash
cp .env.example .env
```

\* Fill out the .env file with your own values.

### Add login credentials and keys to .env

```diff
-DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID=
-DISCORD_API_TOKEN= # Bot token
+DISCORD_APPLICATION_ID="000000772361146438"
+DISCORD_API_TOKEN="OTk1MTU1NzcyMzYxMT000000.000000.00000000000000000000000000000000"
