Chat commands
Chat commands are messages that can be triggered by chat users (such as viewers) using commands, such as "!lurk".
The Chat message window will show all active and inactive commands, sorted alphabetically. Inactive/disabled commands will not be usable in chat.

To manage chat commands, click the "New command" at the top of the page or the "Edit" command of any of the existing commands, a dialog will appear with info to fill out about it.

The fields for a command are:
- Command name
- The identifier used to call the command, i.e. A command called "!lurk" will trigger when someone in chat writes "!lurk" as the start of their message. (ok: "!lurk goodbye", not ok: "I'm going to !lurk now")
- Description
- Description of the command, has no functional effect and only shows up in the user interface and API. The search box at the top also filters on the description text.
- Response
- Message to write to chat, it uses the Go templating system with functions described below.
- Access level
- Minimum permissions required to use a command. This lets you restrict some commands to moderators or other subset of chat users.

Chat timers
Chat timers are messages that are written on repeating intervals as long as some chat activity conditions are met (so the bot doesn't keep screaming into the void!)
