NodeBB chat bot plugin

Hi, I'm trying to build a chatbot for my nodebb forum, at the moment I'm using the action:post.save hook and then run a check to see if the bot's username was mentioned. This is not ideal because only a fraction of the posts will contain the bot mention. Is there a hook specifically for a mention that I can use?

No

But you could easily add one yourself, like so

Fire hook when mentioned. · yariplus/nodebb-plugin-mentions@a3e855e
