Finding Commands with Help

The built-in help plugin is the fastest way to discover what a robot can do in your current context.

Most useful commands

• help
• help <keyword>
• commands
• help-all
• info

What makes v3 help better

Help in v3 is tied more closely to command metadata:

• Usage
• Summary
• Examples
• Keywords

That means users see help that is closer to the actual command surface rather than a detached block of prose.

Context-aware behavior

Help is filtered by the current channel or DM context, and where possible by what the user should actually be allowed to see. If a command exists somewhere else, help can point you there instead of pretending the command does not exist.

Advice for users

• Use commands when you want to browse.
• Use help <keyword> when you know roughly what you want.
• Use info when you need operational details about the robot itself.
