Get started with Productivity Bot

Add the bot to Discord, create a task and try the controls in its reply. You can explore reminders, habits and focus sessions after your first task.

  1. 1. Add the bot to Discord

    Open the install link and follow Discord’s prompts to choose an available installation option and review the requested access.

    Add to Discord

  2. 2. Set your timezone

    Run /settings set timezone and follow the bot’s controls to configure your timezone for reminders and scheduling.

    Timezone and account settings →

  3. 3. Create your first task

    Type /todo add, select the command and enter a short task in the todo field, such as “Plan my week”. You can leave optional fields empty.

    Use the controls in the reply to manage the task, or run /todo complete and select the task when you finish it.

    Task commands and options →

  4. 4. Choose who sees the response

    In a server, the visibility option controls whether the bot’s reply is private to you or shown in the channel. Task scope selects personal or channel items; reminder destination selects where notifications are delivered.

    Response visibility does not change task scope or send a reply by DM.

Try another workflow

Browse the full command reference, or use a message’s Apps menu to try a message shortcut. Connect Toggl with /settings set toggl before using Toggl timers.

If commands are missing, check that the bot is installed in the intended Discord context and that you can use its commands there.
