# Mendable AI Discord Bot

This is a Discord bot that uses the Mendable API to answer questions and provide sources for the answers. It creates a new thread for each question asked and stores the history of the conversation.

## Features

- Starts a new thread for each question asked.
- Uses the Mendable API to answer questions and provide sources.
- Stores the history of the conversation.

## Setup

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install the required dependencies with `npm install`.
3. Create a `.env` file in the root directory of the project and add the following environment variables:
    - `MENDABLE_API_KEY`: Your Mendable API key.

    - `BOT_ID`: Your Discord bot ID.
4. Run the bot with `node index.js` or `npm run start`.

## Usage

```

The bot will create a new thread, answer the question, and provide sources for the answer.
