🌸 MEMBERS 🌸

okay so every single field, one by one, no skips, we don't do that here 🫶

• id_and_color — the ID and the color of the relevant Binding. both of them. iconic duo behavior 👑
• action — what action we're performing, fr fr. see enum iwl_ctxt_action for the full menu ✨
• apply_time — 0 means immediate apply and context switch, like right now, no waiting 💨. any other value means apply the new params after X usecs — literally X microseconds of patience 🕐
• tx_param_color — ??? 😭 bestie the docs said ??? and I am not about to invent lore. that's literally all we know. mystery main character energy 💀
• ci — channel info 🌈
• tail — command tail 🎀

ngl, when the official docs put ??? next to a field, that's your sign to go read the header yourself. i'm just the messenger 💖
