Bot will not sync command tree

[lucasballr]

Summary

using the client.tree.sync or just tree.sync will not sync the app_commands in any guild

Reproduction Steps

You can define the bot/client as either of these two:

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=discord.Intents.all())
# OR 
client = discord.Client(intents=discord.Intents.all())
tree = app_commands.CommandTree(client)

I put my guildIds in a list: guild_ids = [MY_GUILD_ID]

Then you have two options for automatically syncing:

1. Create a setup_hook:

async def setup_hook() -> None:
  client.tree.copy_global_to(guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0])) # Optional if you don't want global?
  await client.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0]))

client.setup_hook = setup_hook

2. Sync on_ready:

@client.event
async def on_ready() -> None:
    await client.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0]))
    print(f"Logged in as {client.user}")

There is also the option to create a sync command:

@client.tree.command(name = "sync", description="Syncs the bot commands", guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0])) # or just use @tree.command
async def sync(interaction: discord.Interaction):
    if interaction.user.id == MY_USER_ID:
        #client.tree.copy_global_to(guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0])) # I tried putting it here too.
        await client.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=guild_ids[0]))
        await interaction.response.send_message('Command tree synced.')
    else:
        await interaction.response.send('You must be the owner to use this command!')

Make sure the bot has application.command permissions on the server

Minimal Reproducible Code

No response

Expected Results

I expected the commands to show up in discord.

Actual Results

The commands don't show up during the majority of my attempts. I think in one variation it synced once, but never again even after reproducing it. I have two commands registered and they have not synced since.

Intents

Intents.all()

System Information

discord.py==2.3.2 via requirements.txt (used in docker container)

Checklist

• I have searched the open issues for duplicates.
• I have shown the entire traceback, if possible.
• I have removed my token from display, if visible.

Additional Context

No response

[No767]

This is not an issue with discord.py.

The reason why is that the command is only synced to the guild, but not globally so it only shows up the commands that are marked to synced to that guild using @app_commands.guilds()

Some additional notes that I want to point out:

• It's recommended to not use the on_ready event to sync due to the dangers of the event being called randomly multiple times without warning.
• you can't sync app commands using an app command when the app command itself is not synced. Instead, use a prefixed command instead (mentions for the bot can also work)
• subclass setup_hook in discord.Client (and all subclasses) instead of trying to attach it as an attribute
