A switchboard: any command off, off until, or on its own cooldown
One row per live command on a new Commands tab of the management page,
each with an on/off switch, an optional "off until" moment and a cooldown
that overrides the bot's default for that command alone. Every switch is
live: the bot keeps them in its own SQLite (command_settings, a permanent
table) and reads the row on every attempt, so nothing goes through
/_reload and nothing restarts.

A command that is off answers "BEEP BOOP !kot WYŁĄCZONE." (with "DO HH:MM"
for a timed switch) rather than going quiet, so nobody reports it broken;
the refusal is filed as refused_off, which the analytics count with the
other refusals, and it neither starts the cooldown nor counts as a use.

The bot grows GET /_commands and PUT /_commands/{name}; the management app
proxies them under /api/commands and passes the bot's 404/503 through
unwrapped. !cisza and !odcisz carry no cooldown and the page says so
instead of accepting a number the bot would ignore (test_wiring_ungated
keeps that set honest against the real table).

Proven end to end: scripts/e2e.sh now brackets a PUT with switch_off.yaml
and switch_on.yaml, the same actor refused and then served, with no reload
between them. Also bumps vitest and @vitest/coverage-v8 to 5.0.0 and
@types/react-dom to 19.2.7, which the freshness gate asked for.

# 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. `!poems` is the one trigger in the table that is only
just legal: it sits two edits from `!pies`, and passes solely because `!poem`
is one edit away and wins the tie. Deleting `!poem` would fail the suite at
`!poems`, nowhere near where the change was made.
## 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 than `difflib`'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.
`random` exists **only in the photo album's own groups**, and only on an
installation that has an album at all — everywhere else it is not a command,
not refused and never logged. It takes 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`.
`mute` (`!cisza [1-10]`) silences the bot in **that group only**, for the
minutes asked or ten by default, and ten at most. It confirms once and then
answers nothing: no commands, no near-miss suggestion, and the nightly report
is held back (not marked, so the next run still says that day). Messages are
still counted. Anybody may ask -- ten quiet minutes is the whole downside.
`unmute` (`!odcisz`) is the one command that runs through a mute, and only
for `TRUSTED_INVITERS`; anyone else is refused without a reply, because a
refusal is a reply. With `TRUSTED_INVITERS` unset, anybody may. There is no
`!unmute` alias: it sits one edit from `!mute`, inside the near-miss budget.
`add_photo` (`!dodaj`) is **unwired since 2026-09-04**: a photo posted to a
group must not reach the album without somebody approving it, and no approval
queue exists yet. It comes back when one does; `DOCS-add-photo.md` describes
the path as it was.
Any command can be **switched off** from the management page (Commands tab),
outright or until a moment, and given its own cooldown. The bot reads the
switch on every attempt, so it is live without a reload; a command that is
off answers `BEEP BOOP !kot WYŁĄCZONE.` (or `… WYŁĄCZONE DO 14:01.`, Warsaw
time) rather than going quiet, and the refusal neither starts the cooldown nor
counts as a use. `!pomoc` still lists it. `DOCS-web-ui.md` has the page.
## 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 — `fold` maps `0134578` onto
letters, so `!7dni` would 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.
