1 · Add an app to your glasses
On the Meta AI phone app, open your glasses' web apps → add a new connection, then:
  1. Tap Copy title on a card and paste it into the title field
  2. Tap Copy link and paste it into the URL field
  3. Save — it launches right on the display (D-pad to move, tap to select)
Meta doesn't allow apps to add themselves, so this is the fewest steps possible — no typing, just two pastes.
2 · Link your accounts
The glasses show a 6-character code. On your phone:
  1. Open herald.ascents.gg
  2. Type the code from the glasses
  3. Sign in to Discord, Reddit or YouTube (Augur needs no login)
Your tokens stay on the server — never on the glasses. Manage everything at herald.ascents.gg/app.
3 · Add the Herald bot to your Discord server
Required for the Discord app — Herald can only show channels & messages from servers where the bot is also a member. The bot is read-only: it can View Channels and Read Message History, nothing else. It can't send messages, kick anyone, or change settings.
  1. Add Herald bot to a server → (Discord opens; pick the server you own / can manage)
  2. Confirm the read-only permissions on Discord's screen
  3. Back on the glasses, the Discord app will list that server
Don't own the server? Ask its owner to invite the Herald bot — the same link works for any server they manage.
