Multiple Embeds Being Sent

Hi! I'm currently working on sending embeds but I'm having an issue where multiple embeds are being sent each time the command is executed. I'm using v20.17.0 (node -v) This should be the code:

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits, EmbedBuilder } = require('discord.js');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
    GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
  ],
});

client.once('ready', () => {
  console.log(

Logged in as ${client.user.tag}

);
});

function loadEmbeds(filename) {
  try {
    const rawData = fs.readFileSync(path.join(__dirname, 'embeds', filename), 'utf-8');
    const jsonData = JSON.parse(rawData);
    return jsonData.embeds.map(embedData => {
      const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setTitle(embedData.title || null)
        .setDescription(embedData.description || null)
        .setColor(embedData.color || null)
        .setFooter(embedData.footer ? { text: embedData.footer.text } : null)
        .setTimestamp(embedData.timestamp ? new Date(embedData.timestamp) : null)
        .setImage(embedData.image ? embedData.image.url : null);

      if (embedData.fields) {
        embed.addFields(embedData.fields);
      }

      return embed;
    });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(

Error loading embed file: ${filename}

, error);
    return null;
  }
}

client.on('messageCreate', message => {
  if (!message.content.startsWith('!') || message.author.bot) return;

  const commandName = message.content.slice(1).toLowerCase(); 
  const embedFilename =

${commandName}.json

;

  const embeds = loadEmbeds(embedFilename);

  if (embeds) {
    message.channel.send({ embeds: embeds }).catch(console.error);
  } else {
    message.channel.send("This command does not exist or no embed is configured for it.");
  }
});

client.login('AAAA');

just to clarify, I assume you mean that it's sending the same embed multiple times? is it sending multiple messages per command, or multiple per message? have you confirmed that you don't have multiple instances of your bot running? just making absolutely sure, is there a reason why you say "this should be the code" rather than something more definite?
