Moosebot is a quirky, serverless Slack chatbot built using Autocode. It was first built to help automate some tasks in a workspace channel called #screaming_only. That is, Moosebot would send the letter "a" a specified number of times on behest of users. Origins aside, the resulting project could serve as a flexible foundation for a variety of Slack bots. Have fun with it!
moosebot can interface with other users via Slack commands (prefixed by /) and mentions (@username). See the usage blurb for commands to try out.

- Thanks to Sajan R, who first coded a Discord chatbot (python server) to automate shouts;
