CogServer Commands

The server implemented in CogServer application has a flexible architecture that allows custom module to provide user-defined commands. This page lists both build-in and custom commands and indicate the module that hosts them. Remember to use `help <command>` to get full help for each command. To get a list of all commands available at any given time from loaded modules type `help` without any argument. If you find this page to be out of date or you create a module exposing some commands, please update it.

In the table below aliases follow main command in a comma separated list. A <token> like this means something that the user should type in while a [token] like this indicates an optional argument.
