Shows help in lobby chat. .commands is an alias for .help; .help <command> explains one command. .help2 gives the expanded reference with staff controls only for the appropriate role.

Compact help from v7.0.3 is retained in the current releases. The default .help / .commands reply lists the most common actions and links to the full web reference:

.queue · .skip · .start · .harder/.easier · .good/.bad rate last map | All commands: https://poolrotater.com/commands

The English reply is 118 characters. Focused .help skip and the optional expanded .help2 remain available. The concise common-command line is the same for staff and players; restricted controls are not exposed through it. Standard and Mania use the same common actions, and a custom command prefix is retained. All nine prepared non-English guidance packs point to the full link and focused help, with English first and one chat message.

The current owner v7.0.7 and common v7.1 releases retain this short help. A published successor does not establish that a particular host already installed it; check its room title and diagnostics. The short poolrotater.com/commands URL resolves to the full command reference.

Try .help on joining, then .help2 for more commands or .help skip for one command's usage. Help is mode- and permission-aware. Newer workers also describe .time, Jump/Rice/Noodle, .lang and Standard .dt [100] / .nm. The room title identifies its worker version; the wiki finder combines the verified deployed-worker inventory with clearly labeled editorial supplements.
