Chat commands
Twitch chat commands your viewers will actually use
A command is a word starting with ! that the bot answers in chat, like !discord or !lurk. Here are the ones most channels have, and how to add them free in a minute, with no code.
Ready the moment the bot is on
- !uptime: how long you’ve been live
- !followage: how long the viewer has followed you
- !title and !game: the stream’s title and category
The ones most channels add
- !discord: the link to your server
- !lurk: a viewer says they’re watching quietly
- !socials: where else to find you
- !so name: a shoutout to another streamer
- !deaths: a counter that goes up each time it’s used
- !sr: a song request, once song requests are on
Add one

What can a reply say?
The viewer’s name, the name typed after the command, how many times it was used, or a random number from 1 to 100. Each command can be for everyone, subs, VIPs or mods, with a pause between uses.
Coming from Nightbot or StreamElements?
Your commands come over in one go from the Chat bot screen, so you don’t type them again.
