Everything that’s old is new again.

Constraints are a Good Thing: ! History Context CLI-ish syntax

Step 1: Get a bot. https://hubot.github.com/ https://www.lita.io/
Step 2: Grab a useful script (or use some plugins)
and add it in. https://github.com/hubot-scripts/ https://www.lita.io/plugins
Step 3: Play the long game of learning-by-demonstration.
Step 4: Iterate until you have everything in chatops.
