@duketis that would need to be your first conditional in that handler.

You can avoid this by using this:

    // Only read messages that are not other bot messages
    if ((message.subtype && (message.subtype === 'bot_message' || message.subtype === 'message_replied')) || (message.message && message.message.subtype && message.message.subtype === 'bot_message')) {
      return
    }

EDIT: ^ that would be in the bot.on(‘message’) handler.
