 - nanobot v0.2.1 available (current: v0.2.0)
 - User completed detached background research on the movie *Interstate 60* (slug: `interstate-60-movie-research`)
 - User archived the completed detached task `interstate-60-movie-research` on 2026-06-02
+- User wants deterministic IRC-bot-style command dispatch in nanobot where `!command text` invokes a registered Python function or external app and returns output without LLM agent involvement
+- User expects nanobot creators to implement custom command registration natively and considers existing workaround solutions unsatisfactory
+- User requested patch study only with no actual code changes for nanobot IRC-bot command dispatch feature
+- Nanobot CommandRouter has priority/exact/prefix/interceptor tiers but lacks an extension point for custom command registration with all handlers hardcoded in builtin.py
+- Proposed nanobot patch adds a custom command tier to CommandRouter dispatching before session lock configured via `commands` section in config.json supporting exec script and python module/function handler types
