From a downloaded zip to a bot running on its own. Headings across these docs are tagged Free or Premium so you can see what a subscription adds without…

Everything on this page needs an active subscription. These are the options that make a session survive without you.

• It walks off the route
• Discord notifications stopped
• F9 and F10 do nothing
