An ephemeral panel — only you can see it — with a button per admin function. It is where anything that needs more than one decision lives, rather than as a slash command with eight options. Bot-admin only. See Admin roles.

​
The main view

The embed above the buttons shows what is running: who everybody is currently appearing as, who started it, when, how much longer it has, and which bridge directions are switched on. Refresh exists because the panel is a snapshot. It was rendered when you ran the command; an effect that started or expired since then will not show until you press it.

​
Drafts

Setting up an effect takes several clicks — a member, a duration, sometimes testers and channels. That half-filled form is held in memory between clicks for fifteen minutes, not carried in the button ids. Two consequences: a draft you abandon expires on its own, and restarting the bot mid-setup costs you the picks you had made. Nothing that was already running is affected — that lives in a file.

​
Adding a function

The panel is built to grow: each function is a button on the main view and a view of its own. See Adding a command for how a new one is wired in, and keep the audit trail in mind — anything that acts on other people’s messages should leave a record the way the global profile change does.
