## TypeScript API Reference

### Create Auto-Reply Manager

```typescript
import { createAutoReplyManager } from 'clodds/auto-reply';

const autoReply = createAutoReplyManager({
  // Storage
  storage: 'sqlite',
  dbPath: './auto-reply.db',

  // Defaults
  defaultCooldownMs: 0,
  defaultPriority: 0,

  // Limits
  maxRulesPerUser: 100,
  maxResponseLength: 2000,
});
```

### Add Simple Rule

```typescript
// Keyword match
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'greeting',
  pattern: {
    type: 'keyword',
    value: 'hello',
    caseSensitive: false,
  },
  response: 'Hi there! How can I help?',
});
```

### Add Regex Rule

```typescript
// Regex pattern
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'price-query',
  pattern: {
    type: 'regex',
    value: /price\s+(btc|eth|sol)/i,
  },
  response: async (match, ctx) => {
    const symbol = match[1].toUpperCase();
    const price = await getPrice(symbol);
    return `${symbol} price: $${price}`;
  },
});
```

### Add Conditional Rule

```typescript
// With conditions
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'trading-hours',
  pattern: {
    type: 'keyword',
    value: 'trade',
  },
  conditions: [
    // Only during market hours
    {
      type: 'time',
      start: '09:30',
      end: '16:00',
      timezone: 'America/New_York',
    },
    // Only on weekdays
    {
      type: 'day',
      days: ['mon', 'tue', 'wed', 'thu', 'fri'],
    },
    // Only for certain users
    {
      type: 'user',
      userIds: ['user-123', 'user-456'],
    },
  ],
  response: 'Markets are open! What would you like to trade?',
  elseResponse: 'Markets are closed. Try again during trading hours.',
});
```

### Add Cooldown

```typescript
// Prevent spam
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'faq',
  pattern: {
    type: 'keyword',
    value: 'faq',
  },
  response: 'Check our FAQ at https://...',
  cooldown: {
    perUser: 60000,    // 60s per user
    perChannel: 10000, // 10s per channel
    global: 5000,      // 5s global
  },
});
```

### Dynamic Responses

```typescript
// Response with variables
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'welcome',
  pattern: {
    type: 'exact',
    value: '!welcome',
  },
  response: 'Welcome {{user.name}}! You joined {{user.joinDate}}.',
  variables: {
    'user.name': (ctx) => ctx.user.displayName,
    'user.joinDate': (ctx) => ctx.user.createdAt.toDateString(),
  },
});

// Response with API call
await autoReply.addRule({
  name: 'portfolio',
  pattern: {
    type: 'keyword',
    value: 'portfolio',
  },
  response: async (match, ctx) => {
    const portfolio = await getPortfolio(ctx.user.id);
    return `Your portfolio: $${portfolio.totalValue.toFixed(2)}`;
  },
});
```

### List Rules

```typescript
const rules = await autoReply.listRules();

for (const rule of rules) {
  console.log(`${rule.id}: ${rule.name}`);
  console.log(`  Pattern: ${rule.pattern.value}`);
  console.log(`  Enabled: ${rule.enabled}`);
  console.log(`  Triggers: ${rule.triggerCount}`);
}
```

### Test Rule

```typescript
// Test which rules would match
const matches = await autoReply.test('hello world', {
  userId: 'user-123',
  channelId: 'telegram-456',
});

for (const match of matches) {
  console.log(`Rule: ${match.rule.name}`);
  console.log(`Response: ${match.response}`);
}
```

### Enable/Disable

```typescript
await autoReply.enable('rule-id');
await autoReply.disable('rule-id');
```

### Delete Rule

```typescript
await autoReply.deleteRule('rule-id');
```

## Best Practices

1. **Use priorities** — Important rules first
2. **Set cooldowns** — Prevent spam
3. **Test patterns** — Verify before enabling
4. **Use conditions** — Context-aware responses
5. **Monitor triggers** — Check rule effectiveness
