!pułapka (and !trap, !sidła, !wnyk, !potrzask, 26 spellings in all) posts a photograph of the literal device -- a bear trap, a mousetrap, a snare, a fish weir -- captioned with what Commons says it is. The pool is 2218 Commons page ids, harvested by tool/gen_traps.py from a curated seed list and committed. Page ids and not filenames on purpose: a filename carries photographers' and sitters' names, and one of those colliding with a label somebody mints from the chat would wedge check_personal_data.py permanently, over data nobody can edit by hand. _repo_vocabulary() subtracts aliases.json and nothing else, so it would not have caught it. An integer cannot carry a name. Nothing is cached. !papież caches because 267 portraits are a closed set a group works through; a uniform draw from 2218 warms a cache essentially never, so this fetches per call the way !kot and !pies do. What the harvest measured, and now enforces: - five plausible seed categories do not exist (Snares, Man traps, Hunting traps, Wasp traps, Animal trapping). A missing category is an empty answer, not an error, so verify_seeds() asks Commons before harvesting and fails loudly naming all of them. - depth three from Category:Fish traps reaches Alfred Sisley's net paintings. Depth one, from seeds picked by hand. - "<thing> in art" categories are paintings: Mousetraps in art put a Robert Campin altarpiece in the pool. Pruned by pattern, since Commons mints a new one whenever somebody needs it. Booby traps, the Wolfsangel, camera traps and animals dying in traps are pruned by name. - Commons rate-limits hard, so a partial harvest must not be committed silently: 429 backs off, and a short pool refuses to write at all. Descriptions are HTML and sometimes say nothing, so the tags come out, the Fisheries records' trailing catalogue list is cut, a description naming only the country falls back to the filename, and the file's own page is always linked. !łapka is not an alias: it resolves to !papa at distance two, which test_nearest.py fails on, and rightly -- the suggestion would be a coin toss. signal_bot/commons.py is the imageinfo query both Commons commands now share; portraits.py keeps its behaviour and its tests unchanged.

Commands
The copy that matters is not this file: !pomoc prints the same list in the
group, in Polish, one line of description per command. That version is built
from the command registry at run time and cannot drift, because
CommandRegistry.register takes the description as a required argument and
help_command.render_help prints any command its GROUPS table forgot to
file anyway, under no heading.
This file is the trigger reference — every spelling that resolves, which
!pomoc deliberately does not print.

Aliases live in signal_bot/aliases.json, not in source, because they are
data: adding one should never mean touching Python. Two constraints on a new
one. It is subtracted from the personal-data gate's word list by
_repo_vocabulary(), so it must not be name-shaped; and
tests/test_nearest.py fails if it lands within edit distance of a
different command's trigger, because the near-miss suggestion below would
then be a coin toss.
A word nothing claims
An unrecognised !word used to be dropped in silence, which made a typo
indistinguishable from the bot being down. Now it is answered, and kept:
- within one edit (two, from six characters up) of a real trigger, the bot
asks whether that is what you meant —
!cta→ chodziło o !kot? The distance is optimal string alignment rather thandifflib's ratio, because a transposition costs one edit there and shreds the matching blocks a ratio counts. - otherwise it points at
!zaproponuj, which files the idea. - either way the word and the message go into
unknown_commands, which the management page shows. That is the list of commands worth writing next.
Three things stay silent, and each for its own reason. !kot ładny is a
real trigger with words after it, and always has been silent. !! and !?
are punctuation, not a mistyped command. And a command scoped to some other
group — the album's, whose triggers are real people's names — is neither
answered nor recorded, because a refusal would announce that the album
exists.
add_photo and random exist only in the photo album's own groups, and
only on an installation that has an album at all — everywhere else they are
not commands, not refused and never logged. Both take arguments, and those
arguments are resolved to pseudonym keys by the registry before any handler,
log line or command_uses row sees them. See DOCS-photo-pack.md and DOCS-add-photo.md.
Why !pomoc shows the first alias and not a trigger
Command.triggers is a frozenset of folded skeletons — folding.py
runs NFKC, strips diacritics and maps Cyrillic/Greek/small-caps/leet
lookalikes onto ASCII, so that !gecko typed on a Russian keyboard still
resolves. Everything that makes those triggers robust also makes them
unprintable: the set has no order, !papież survives only as !papiez, and
the styled variants come out as zalgo.
So Command.primary holds the first raw trigger instead, which
aliases.json lists as the canonical Polish spelling for every command.
Two consequences worth remembering, both from folding.py:
- A command name can never contain a digit —
foldmaps0134578onto letters, so!7dniwould resolve as!tdni. - The styled Unicode aliases in the table above are redundant now; folding covers them. They are kept because removing an alias can only take something away.
