Respond Rooster

Turn chat into action.

Respond Rooster is a lightweight chat monitoring, response queue, group invite, and guild recruitment addon built for players who need to keep up with busy World of Warcraft chat channels without constantly staring at them.

Create your own keyword triggers, choose exactly which channels to watch, and let Respond Rooster catch matching players for you. Matches are organized into clean queues where you decide what happens next.

Respond Rooster does NOT exist to mindlessly spam chat. It is designed around detection, organization, and player-controlled responses.

WHAT CAN RESPOND ROOSTER DO?

- Monitor chat for custom keywords and phrases
- Create multiple independent triggers
- Watch only the channels you choose
- Queue matching players for review
- Send prepared responses manually
- Automatically substitute player, realm, and class information into responses
- Queue players for party or raid invitations
- Maintain a completely separate Guild Recruit queue
- Send guild invitations individually or in batches
- Optionally auto-invite newly queued guild recruits
- Track recruitment prospects
- Review response history
- Pause monitoring whenever needed
- Maintain multiple profiles for different activities
- Track detected matches, responses, and invitations
- Access everything through a movable minimap button

TRIGGER STUDIO

Build rules around the way you actually play.

Each trigger contains its own keyword or phrase, prepared response, watched channels, and queue behavior.

Watch channels such as:

- Say
- Yell
- Whisper
- Party
- Raid
- Guild
- Officer
- General
- Trade
- LookingForGroup

A trigger can simply detect a message, place the player into your normal response queue, route them into the group Invite Queue, or send them into the dedicated Guild Recruit system.

GUILD RECRUITING

Respond Rooster 3.0 includes a dedicated guild recruitment workflow.

Create recruiting triggers for phrases such as "LF Guild" and Respond Rooster can collect matching players into a separate Guild Recruit queue.

From there you can:

- Review waiting recruits
- Add players manually
- Invite the next recruit
- Invite multiple queued recruits
- Remove unwanted entries
- Clear the queue
- Optionally enable automatic guild invitations
- Track recruits separately from normal party and raid invitations

Guild recruiting remains separate from the standard Invite Queue, so the two workflows don't become mixed together.

MANUAL CONTROL

Respond Rooster is built around keeping you in control.

Finding a matching message does not mean the addon needs to immediately fire a response. Matches can wait in your queue until you're ready to act.

Prepared responses support:

{player}
{realm}
{class}

Response messages are limited to 255 characters to help keep templates practical for in-game chat.

PROFILES

Different activity? Different setup.

Use profiles to maintain separate trigger configurations for things like:

- Guild recruiting
- Group building
- Professions
- Trading
- Community events
- General chat monitoring

Switch profiles without rebuilding your triggers every time.

COMMAND CENTER

The Dashboard gives you a quick overview of what Respond Rooster has been doing.

See:

- Players currently queued
- Messages detected
- Responses sent
- Invitations sent
- Live queues
- Listening status

From one screen you can pause monitoring, clear your queues, or jump directly into creating another trigger.

BUILT FOR MODERN WOW

The addon now features the modern Rooster Family interface, faction-aware Alliance/Horde presentation, organized navigation, improved queue management, cleaner trigger configuration, history tracking, and a movable minimap launcher.
