Is there a way to create a bot on Discourse that would reply to my commands, in a similar way that I have built many of my Discord bots?

Basically, I know that there are various plugins that I can install, but in my mind, it would be far easier for me to maintain if I could just have a bot that could listen to the text in a comment rather than trying to install plugins that are prone to mess up with things and especially if the maintainer decides that they don’t want to maintain the plugin anymore.
