Take control.
Every command works on every server, we don't paywall features.
Your room
These act on the voice channel you are in right now. The person who made the room is in charge, and the bot politely tells everyone else no.
| Command | What it does | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
/limit count | Set how many people can join your room. Use 0 for no limit. | Room owner |
/unlimit | Drop the limit again so anyone can join. | Room owner |
/name | Open a panel to rename your room, or reset it back to the template. | Room owner |
/private | Lock the room to @everyone. A public join channel appears so friends can knock, and you approve or deny each one from inside your room. | Room owner |
/public | Reopen the room to @everyone and clear away the join channel. | Room owner |
/transfer member | Hand the room over to another member who is in it with you. | Room owner |
/reclaim | If you're the original creator of the channel, when you leave and come back, you can reclaim ownership and control. | Original creator |
/kick member [reason] | Start a vote-kick. If most of the room agrees, the member is removed. It's democracy, but for voice channels. | Anyone in the room |
Anyone
Small utilities that any member can run, anywhere in the server.
| Command | What it does | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
/nick name | Set the name shown for you in @@owner@@ room names, or pass reset to go back to your display name. | Anyone |
/channelinfo | See what AVC knows about the voice channel you're in: who owns it, the game it detected, and why it's named what it is. Two buttons go deeper, showing every name template variable resolved for that channel right now, and what its template gives in situations you can't see, like nobody playing or the room being full. Admins can pass a channel to look at another one, including a creator channel. | Anyone |
/ping | Check that the bot is awake and how quickly it answers. | Anyone |
/invite | Grab a link to add the bot to another server. | Anyone |
/source | Get a link to the bot's source code. It's open source, AGPL-3.0. | Anyone |
Admins, needs Manage Channels
Server setup and configuration. These show up only for members who have the Manage Channels permission.
| Command | What it does | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
/create | Make a new creator channel, the one members join to spawn their own room. | Manage Channels |
/setup | See where the server stands, walk through setup, and grab quick actions to get going. | Anyone can view. Setup actions need Manage Channels |
/template | Open a panel to set the name template for the creator channel you are in. Game names, party sizes, conditionals, all of it. | Manage Channels |
/templateassistant | Describe the names you want in plain words and it writes the template for you. Shows a preview across a few different room states, then you apply it or keep refining. Free on every server, same as everything else. How it works. | Manage Channels |
/position | Pick whether new rooms appear above or below the creator channel, and what number they count from. | Manage Channels |
/alwaysprivate | Toggle whether a creator channel spawns private rooms by default. | Manage Channels |
/defaultlimit | Set the user limit new rooms from a creator channel start with. 0 means no limit. Existing rooms keep whatever they already have. | Manage Channels |
/group | Group a category's rooms into one numbered block, or turn grouping back off. | Manage Channels |
/inheritpermissions | Pick where new rooms copy their permissions from. The creator channel, its category, or a specific channel. | Manage Channels |
/logging | Send events to a text channel, pick how much detail you want, or turn it off. | Manage Channels |
/alias | Open a panel to add, edit or remove shorter aliases for game names that show up in room names. | Manage Channels |
/debug | Dump a room's name, template, presence, and permission data. This is for dev builds only, so you will not see it in production. | Manage Channels, dev only |
If a server is paused or blocked, commands still get a friendly reply instead of failing silently. New here? Start with getting started.
Taking your config with you
Your configuration is yours, and you can move it any time off the hosted service and onto your own instance, or back again, without setting every creator channel up by hand a second time.
| Command | What it does | Who can use it |
|---|---|---|
/export | Download this server's AVC configuration as a file: creator channels and their templates, game aliases, logging, the lot. The reply is private to you. | Manage Server |
/import | Attach a configuration file and get a preview of exactly what would change before anything is written. Reads a file from /export or a config from the old Python bot. | Manage Server |
Both need Manage Server rather than Manage Channels, because an import replaces configuration somebody else may have set up.
