Are you the maintainer? Is the current source code published?

I made the bot myself, and no the current code has not yet been shown.

Okay, I was interested in contributing as I found the current bot does not work in threads, nor does it use slash commands.

Yeah the code was rewritten before threads and slash commands came into life and I stopped caring about it since.
