 todo:
-- !states emits current state 
-- TEST. Just like, refactor and test to shit.
-- try search ntg by autoinc?
+- fast exact is dumb or...?
+- modify old items once no longer available; drop stale jobs good candidate but requires new matrix interaction
+- more than NTG; blue one
+- !states emits current state
 - test each !command callbacks to matrix
 - recv-as for clients so pa receives mas commands as writes
 - continuation is garbo, but I can still do better client side to avoid get-set high level
 - no hard code jpeg or have it in multiple places
 - change matrix so I test my custom logic even if I dont fetch remote
 - warn/err/etc. on clobbering ids.matrix since clients can mess with one another
-- modify old items once no longer available; drop stale jobs good candidate but requires new matrix interaction
-- more than NTG
 - todo: filter out jobs like CA
   subtasks:
   - banlist criteria like vendors, brokers, metadata
 - set up copy for caleb, broc
 done:
+- try search ntg by autoinc?
+- TEST. Just like, refactor and test to shit.
 - mark jobs no longer avail by modifying in matrix;; save matrix ID over dummy payload
 - TEST its falling apart
 - help() log on truckstop for stuff like perma 403
