Setup

A server admin can finish the setup in under a minute.

Invite ProtoTrack

Open the install link, select your Discord server, and approve the requested permissions. Discord requires the installing account to have Manage Server permission.

Choose a post channel

Run the setup command, select the channel where Target Loot should appear, then choose the delivery format. ProtoTrack posts the current Target Loot once immediately after setup.

/targetloot setup channel:#target-loot format:image

Check the status

Use the status command to confirm the server is subscribed.

/targetloot status

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
Command is not visible	Kick and re-invite the bot, then wait a moment. Server commands can also require a fresh command registration.
Setup works, but no first post appears	Check the selected channel permissions for the bot role. View Channel and Send Messages must be explicitly allowed. Embed Links is required for fast image delivery; Attach Files is required for attachment image delivery.
Server wants text instead of an image	Run `/targetloot setup` again and choose `format:text`. Use `format:image` for the image card or `format:both` for text plus image.
Missing Permissions	The bot can see the selected channel, but is not allowed to post everything ProtoTrack needs. Allow View Channel, Send Messages, Embed Links, and Attach Files for the ProtoTrack bot role in that channel, then run `/targetloot setup` again.
Missing Access / HTTP 403	The bot cannot access the selected channel at all. Check that the channel still exists, that the bot is still installed on the server, and that private channel overrides allow the ProtoTrack bot role to View Channel. Then run `/targetloot setup` again.
Wrong channel was selected	Run `/targetloot setup` again with the correct channel. The latest setup replaces the old one.
Stop posts on a server	Run `/targetloot disable` or remove the bot from the server.
