✨ NAME ✨

/autoaway — the Profanity /autoaway command, aka the little guy who handles your "brb gonna go be a person" vibes 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so bestie, this command is all about managing your autoaway settings for idle time 🦋. Basically: when you go quiet, Profanity can notice and update your presence for you. Your main character energy doesn't have to sit there manually telling everyone you stepped away — /autoaway does it 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

/autoaway mode idle|away|off

/autoaway time away|xa <minutes>

/autoaway message away|xa <message>|off

/autoaway check on|off

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

  • mode idle — sends idle time, and your status stays online 🌈. You're here, you're just... vibing quietly.
  • mode away — sends away and xa presence, plus idle time. Full "not at my keyboard rn" moment 💀
  • mode off — disabled, and this is the default. No auto-presence shenanigans at all.
  • time away <minutes> — how many minutes before the away presence gets sent. default: 15 ⏰
  • time xa <minutes> — how many minutes before the xa presence gets sent. default: 0 (disabled) 😴

  • message xa <message> — optional message to send along with the xa presence. default: off (disabled) 🍓
  • message away off — send no message with away presence. silence, but make it intentional 🤫
  • message xa off — send no message with xa presence. same deal.
  • check on|off — when this is enabled, it checks for activity and sends online presence. default: on 🔥
