Which command wins

A name can mean four things. Conch tries them in this order:

  1. One of Conch's own commands, above.
  2. One of your commands: a prompt you saved in Settings → Commands, where {{input}} is replaced by what you type after the name.
  3. One of your skills, by name.
  4. One of the provider's own commands, sent as it is.

Thinking effort

/effort takes one of these. A model only offers the levels it has.

/effort autoAuto
The model decides how long to think.
/effort lowLow
Quick answers for simple things.
/effort mediumMedium
A balance of speed and care.
/effort highHigh
Careful thinking for real work.
/effort xhighExtra

/effort maxMax
As much thinking as it takes.
