matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/roles/custom/matrix-bot-meowlnir/templates/bin/meowlnir-create-management-room.j2

#!/bin/sh
# Creates a management room for a Meowlnir bot, with the given users able to command the bot there.
#
# The room is created by the bot itself, impersonated through the appservice token, so no human account's credentials are needed.
#
# The `trusted_private_chat` preset is what gives the invited users their standing, and it does the right thing on both old and new room versions: on rooms supporting MSC4289 every invitee becomes an additional creator, and on older ones each is given power level 100.
# Either way there is nothing for us to adjust afterwards.
#
# Usage: meowlnir-create-management-room <bot_localpart> <initial_manager_mxid>...
#
# Prints the created room's ID on success.
