**Features**

- Authenticate with Pieces: Login to the Pieces Chat Bot (used to authenticate the bot on behalf of the user and to save snippets to your Pieces for Developers Desktop application).

- Action to Save to Pieces: This will save the message and any code attachments to Pieces for Developers in real-time and enrich those materials with valuable metadata such as related people, a smart description, and related links, including a link back to the original message to reference later.

- @Pieces Save: This message command will save the previous message to Pieces. To enable this feature, you will need to add Pieces to your desired chat/channel.

- Question: This is a message command that will start a conversation with the Pieces for Developers Copilot and help you answer all your code questions. This is only available within the personal chat with the Pieces Bot.

- @Pieces Discover: This is a message command that will comb through your desired chat/team, identify code attachments, and save them to Pieces.

- @Pieces Enrich: This will select the previous message (code snippet) and enrich it with AI-powered metadata (related links, related people, title, language classification, and more!).

- @Pieces Extract: This will select the previous message (only image files), extract the code from the image via OCR, and enrich the extracted code with AI-powered metadata (related links, related people, title, language classification, and more!).

- @Pieces Unfurl [pieces_shareable_link]: This will take a Pieces-generated shareable link and unfurl the link to display a card within a chat or channel. This card includes a convenient save button that will gather additional Microsoft Teams context. For example, ”@Pieces Unfurl https://mark.pieces.cloud/?p=516149bcb1”.

- @Pieces Help: This is a message command that will list all available commands, common errors, and links to documentation/support.

- Note: All message commands will skip messages that include @Pieces commands, and will skip messages that are emitted from the Pieces bot, unless you are using commands within the personal chat with the bot. This enables you to retry a message command if a failure occurs.
