Rust team chat showing !pulse AI reply

Asks an AI assistant a Rust-survival question and replies with a single in-game chat message. Powered by Groq (Llama 3.1 by default, configurable). Usage:

!pulse <question>

Examples:

!pulse how much sulfur for a tower?
!pulse what does a test generator cost at outpost?
!pulse cheapest soft side bigger than a 2x2?
!pulse where do I get green keycards?

Live data fusion

When the question maps to data Rust Pulse already knows, the bot fuses the answer with your live state:

  • Shop questions — the bot reads your tracked-shop list and the suspicious-shop scanner to answer with actual prices on your server, not generic wiki numbers.
  • Event questions (“is cargo up?”, “when did chinook leave?”) — the bot includes your current world-event state as context.
  • Recipe / raid-cost questions — the bot uses the same crafting/raid tables the dashboard tools use.

When it's unavailable

If GROQ_API_KEY is unset on the API, the bot replies “Pulse AI not configured”. The default model is llama-3.1-8b-instant. Operators can switch to llama-3.3-70b-versatile (slower, smarter) via GROQ_MODEL env. See Environment variables.
