Matchers

You can configure tasks to match in several ways with incoming messages:

• isMessage: Checks if the incoming message is strictly equal to the specified content
• beginsWith: Checks if an incoming message begins with the specified content string
• isJoining: Looks for channel joining events in incoming messages, so the bot can advertise itself
