Currenty channel is supported in the bot() function. Any plan to support a room server with authentication too? Thanks!

Hmmmm that might be kind of tricky; room server messages are not dispatched to the whole mesh but only once a user actually logs in does the room server begin synchronizing messages. There could be some way to do automatic logins to the room server, at which point I think the messages come through as if they are direct messages sent by the room server if I recall correctly. But it would not be a synchronous action; it would need to be some kind of scheduled poll for messages, which means the bot wouldn't work in real time. I'm not sure if this is something we'd be able to support, sorry 😕
