    In fairness, this was all on a switch, where the commands are very tightly tied to the vendor and their underlying in-house shell. So commands may vary by release greatly. I was already explicitly telling the bot what software version and licenses I had, but ultimately I had to resort to the CLI’s help function at times and tell the bot “The command you gave me didn’t work. Here’s where it broke, and here’s the commands it will accept”. Given that information, it could (generally) figure it all out.

      I dunno if you had this experience but the one I used made up commands if it didn’t know them.

      It basically hallucinated them.
