S4. BaseCommand and the 40 bundled overrides that took no argument now take `message: MeshMessage | None = None`, matching joke and rain, which already use the message. None of the 40 bodies read it, so their help text is unchanged. help and command_manager keep their TypeError retry, since local plugins may still implement get_help_text(self). For bundled commands the retry no longer runs: `help <command>` calls get_help_text(message) once instead of failing and calling it again. A new test pins the signature for every bundled command class. The offline smoke run against the real config produces the same help text for all 46 commands.
reload, channelpause, status and feed overrode requires_admin_access() to return True, then checked 'if not self.requires_admin_access(): return False' in their own can_execute, which could never fire. BaseCommand gains an admin_only class attribute that requires_admin_access() honors before consulting [Admin_ACL] admin_commands; the four commands set it and lose both overrides. status and feed move their enable switch onto enabled_attr. requires_admin_access() is unchanged for every other caller, including local plugins and the website generator.
- Updated `config.ini.example` to support single, multiple, and decorative command prefixes, improving flexibility in command invocation.
- Refactored `CommandManager` and `BaseCommand` to utilize new command prefix parsing logic, allowing for better handling of multiple prefixes and optional bare commands.
- Enhanced documentation to clarify command prefix configuration options and behavior, ensuring users understand how to set and use prefixes effectively.
- Added unit tests to verify the correct functionality of command prefix handling, including support for permissive and strict prefix modes.
- Updated type hints to use `|` for union types instead of `Optional` where applicable, enhancing readability and consistency.
- Cleaned up import statements by removing unnecessary imports and organizing them for better clarity.
- Adjusted function signatures in various modules to reflect the new type hinting style, improving type safety and code maintainability.
These changes contribute to a more modern and consistent codebase, aligning with current Python typing practices.
- Added `channelpause` and `channelresume` commands to the admin commands list in configuration files, allowing admins to pause or resume bot responses on public channels via DM.
- Updated documentation to reflect the new command functionality and its implications for channel responses.
- Modified validation and message handling to incorporate the new channel response control feature.
