Just 9 commands. After you add the bot to your server, `/join` is all it takes to get going.

## Setup steps

1. Invite the bot to your server
2. Join a voice channel yourself
3. Type `/join` to start reading

## Commands

- `/join`: Have the bot join the voice channel you're connected to
- `/leave`: Make the bot leave the current voice channel
- `/select_channel`: Switch the text channel the bot reads from
- `/clear`: Clear the queued read-aloud messages
- `/ping`: Show the bot's response time
- `/language`: Switch the language your own messages are read aloud in
- `/voice`: Choose the voice model your own messages are read aloud with, per language
- `/invite`: Invite the bot to your server
- `/help`: Show the command list with links to the website, guide, terms of service and privacy policy

## Tips

- Join / leave announcements are automatic. No setup needed.
- Messages that mix multiple languages are also read aloud with a natural tone.
- If messages pile up, use /clear to flush the queue.
