# Twitch

Connect to Twitch chat so viewers can interact with your agents during streams.

## Setup

1. Create a Twitch account for your bot (or use your own)
2. Generate an OAuth token at [twitchapps.com/tmi](https://twitchapps.com/tmi/)
3. In Pawz, go to **Settings → Channels**
4. Select **Twitch**
5. Enter:
   * **Username** — bot's Twitch username
   * **OAuth token** — from step 2
   * **Channel** — Twitch channel to join (your stream channel)
6. Start the channel

## Configuration

| Field         | Required      | Description           |
| ------------- | ------------- | --------------------- |
| Username      | Yes           | Bot's Twitch username |
| OAuth token   | Yes           | Twitch OAuth token    |
| Channel       | Yes           | Channel name to join  |
| DM policy     | Yes           | Who can interact      |

## Features

* Twitch IRC chat integration
* Per-user sessions with memory
* Prompt injection scanning
* Agent routing via channel routing rules
* Responds to mentions and commands

## Tips

* Set the DM policy to **open** for public stream interaction
* Use an allowlist if you only want moderators or subscribers to interact
* Messages are limited to Twitch's 500 character max — long responses are auto-split
* Consider rate limiting to avoid flooding chat
