does seem to just be /slash commands.

Saw the name fusebot and was hoping for another way to bridge discord/matrix/twitter/insert-other-thing-here - that could be smart enough to send copies when it detects X thing or Y person.

Like the landing page though - and nice thought to put 'Too busy now to install? Sign up for a reminder'



Yes it is just for slash commands for now. What mode of iteraction would you like to see? What do you mean when you say "send copies when it detects X thing or Y person"?


if I had a 24/7 bot could sit in a discord and listen.. when it hears and word from [list of words] - it copies that statement and sends it to [my fantasy yahoo pipes remake] that emails me a copy and adds a post to my private wordpress and..

If it hears that a person from [list of persons] says something, it copies what they said, along with timestamp, send copies to my other places..

this way I can get notified upon specific events and don't have to watch 24/7 to see when 'princessK' posts a new decree.. or someone mentions digitalCoin X..

I could see that being used a lot by many people.. I would love to have a few other messages posted before and after [said event] also sent.. this way I could likely scan an email while on the go and get some context..

I'd also use such a bot for moderation warnings.. and if I can send a post to my private-wordpress - then all of my moderators can get auto-notified that a new post was made - which could include details like [badKeyword] was said.. but person Nickname.. timestamp.. possibly include the 5 lines of chat before..

I guess kind of like how google alerts works.. and there are bridges with matrix that would allow one to cross post and such.


I get what you are saying and your mention of yahoo pipes makes me nostalgic. I'd love to discuss it more if you can join our discord/slack at https://fusebit.io/contact. In particular I am interested in how you would want to express the logic behind those rules - do you see yourself writing a piece of JavaScript?
