🫶 the basics

  • --help, -h — prints the help text and dips out. your "wait what does this do again" bestie 🥺
  • --version, -V — prints the version and exits. it's giving credential check ✨

🦋 Mode: customized 🦋

  • --message [STRING], -m [STRING] — sets the main text of the notification. the body, the lore, the substance 💌

🌈 Mode: standard 🌈
