Overview

@file /help-me — collect the context once, match it, escalate honestly. The whole point of this bot. Support here costs three or four round trips before anyone knows which board, which image, and what the console said, so this asks for all of it in one form and posts a thread that already has the answer or already says there isn't one. Two interactions, not one. Discord will not let a command defer and then open a modal, so board and image are command options (enumerated, validated by Discord) and the free text is collected by the modal that the command returns. The selections ride through on the modal's custom_id. The matcher never speculates. No match is reported as no match and pings the maintainer, because "I don't recognise this" is a useful thing to tell somebody and a plausible guess is not.
