Office JS Dialog - How to get back/keep context with Excel

I'm messing around w/ Office Dialog for Add-Ins in JS. I've got it so far where I can open a dialog, capture input to console, run a function from a button and close the dialog box, but I can't seem to get my function to interact with Excel. It's lost context I beleive, I tried using this and I get no errors, but it doesn't work --> var context = new Excel.RequestContext().

Here is my open function and my main function and the end function.

main.js

export async function helloworld(event) {
    try {
        await Excel.run(async (context) => {
            //Start Func
            console.log("BEFORE OPEN UI");
            openDialog("/yo/dist/dialog.html", 30, 20);
            console.log("AFTER OPEN UI");
            await context.sync()
                .then(function () {
                    console.log("AFTER SYNC UI");
                    var ws = context.workbook.worksheets.getActiveWorksheet();
                    var range = ws.getRange("A1:D5");
                    range.select();
                })
            //End Func
            await context.sync();
        });
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
    console.log("EVENT COMPLETEED HELLOW");
    //event.completed();
}

open.js

function openDialog(RelURLStr, H, W) {
    Office.context.ui.displayDialogAsync(window.location.origin + RelURLStr,
        { height: H, width: W }, dialogCallback);
}

run func //this gets ran, but nothing output to worksheet and no errors.

function dobuttonrun(event) {
    console.log("ENDING");
    var context = new Excel.RequestContext()
    var ws = context.workbook.worksheets.getActiveWorksheet();
    var fakedatarng = ws.getRange("A1");
    fakedatarng.values = "TEST";
    return context.sync();
    event.completed();
}

function getGlobal() {
    return typeof self !== "undefined"
        ? self
        : typeof window !== "undefined"
            ? window
            : typeof global !== "undefined"
                ? global
                : undefined;
}

const g = getGlobal();

// The add-in command functions need to be available in global scope
g.dobuttonrun = dobuttonrun;

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
