Moreever, we are continuing to reduce the number of bugs during setup. I know many of you are worried about security, we only ask for permissions that we require to have the bot setup properly. Here is a full list of permission that we need right now.

(a) Embed links: our configuring guild has embedded links allowing you to get help or setup a call with me. Without this permission, you will not see our messages.
(b) Manage channels: we will open up private channels for new users so that they can chat with Spark and understand your projects in a more intimate settings.
(c) Manage roles: we need to have the ability to mention names (like you!) to tell you which channels our Spark setup is at.
