Potential fix for https://github.com/scarolan/data/security/code-scanning/3

Best general fix: remove or sanitize sensitive/untrusted values before logging. Prefer constant operational messages that do not include environment-derived data.

For this specific case, the best minimal fix is in app.js, in start(...) around line 373:

  • Replace console.log(${deps.botName} is alive!);
  • With a constant message like console.log('Bot is alive!');

This keeps startup logging behavior (an “alive” message still appears) without exposing environment-derived data. No new imports, methods, or dependencies are needed.

Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
