Glossary

Shelf

A labeled section of the Directory (Featured, Resources, Templates) that holds a kind of listing.

Why this word exists

A catalog needs labeled bins. Shelf is Botski's friendly name for a Directory section — Featured, Resources, Templates — so talk stays plain.

A shelf can hold seed rows while real records grow. Seed is starter content on purpose, not a pretend Hall of bots.

Where you will meet it

Shop notes and Directory writeups name shelves when sorting cards. Featured is one shelf with staff scorecards, not a paid ad row.

Examples

  • Resources shelf holds guides and tools; Templates shelf holds recipe writeups.
  • Clerk soft-passes a writeup onto the Guides shelf under soft rules.
  • Empty Hall is not a Directory shelf of fake bots — Hall waits on real claims.
