Local Authoring Workflow

The normal v3 authoring loop looks like this:

1. run the engine from the robot home
2. connect over the local SSH connector
3. edit files under custom/
4. issue reload
5. test the command again

Example loop

cd ~/robots/acme
/opt/gopherbot/gopherbot

In another terminal:

ssh -i /opt/gopherbot/resources/ssh-default/alice.key -p 4221 alice@localhost

Then:

• edit custom/conf/plugins/hello.yaml
• edit custom/plugins/hello.lua
• run ;reload
• run ;hello

That is the workflow the rest of this manual assumes.
