+# 174BG Discord Bot
+
+This repository contains the source code for the official Discord bot for the 174th Battle Group community. The bot is written in JavaScript using the [discord.js](https://discord.js.org) library.
+
+## Features
+
+- `/create-requisition-ticket` — Creates a private ticket channel under the **tickets** category so a member can submit a request to the Quartermaster role.
+- `/delete-all-requisition-tickets` — Bulk-deletes all open requisition tickets. Restricted to administrators.
+- Logs ticket activity (creation and closure) to a **logs** channel.
+
+## Setup
+
+1. Install dependencies:
+
+   ```sh
+   npm install
+   ```
+
+2. Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the values:
+
+   ```
+   DISCORD_CLIENT_ID=
+   DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN=
+   ```
+
+3. Run the bot:
+
+   ```sh
+   npm start
+   ```
+
+   During development, use `npm run dev` (or `npm run dev:watch` to restart on file changes) to load the `.env` file automatically.
+
+## Deployment
