Telegram Commands

The full slash-command reference. Most of NovaBuildBot is just natural conversation, but a handful of /commands give you direct shortcuts.

You don't need to memorize these — type / in Telegram and Telegram will auto-suggest. Everything else can be said as a normal sentence ("update my phone", "add a blog post about X") and the bot figures out what you mean.

Everyday commands

/start

Welcome message. New users get the signup flow. Existing users see their active site and a few example things they can ask for.

/sites

Lists every website connected to your account. Each entry shows the live URL, the Nova Hub dashboard link, and which one is currently active.

If you only own one business this is mostly a sanity check. If you run a few (a clinic and a side project, for example) this is how you keep them straight.

/switch <name>

Changes which site the bot is currently working on. Partial matches work, so /switch dent will switch to your dental clinic if there's only one match. Without an argument, it shows you your sites.

/new

Starts a fresh signup for an additional website on the same Telegram account. Same flow as the very first onboarding.

/customize

Shows a quick menu of things the bot can do for you, with example phrasings. Useful when you've forgotten what's possible.

Marketing & content

/connect

Connects your Facebook Page and Instagram Business account via Meta OAuth. See Connecting Instagram & Facebook for the full flow.

/analytics

Pulls a fresh analytics report for your active site — page views, top pages, traffic sources, devices. Monthly reports are also sent automatically on the 1st.

/domain <name.com>

Checks domain availability. If it's free, the bot tells you the registrar prices we recommend.

Account

/support

Opens a support ticket — your message goes straight to the NovaBuildBot team. Use this for anything urgent or anything you don't want the AI to handle.

What you don't need a command for

The bot handles plain-language requests for everything content-related. You don't need a /blog command — you just say "write a blog post about teeth whitening". You don't need an /image command — send the photo and tell the bot where it goes.

If a /command exists, it's usually because there's a privileged action (connecting an account, switching sites) that benefits from being explicit.
