Basic concepts

What is a statement?Copy Anchor Link

A statement is the Kether script you write. For example:

tell "Hello"
give diamond 1

A script can contain a single statement or several statements.

Think of it as a passage of text: its instructions need to make sense and execute in the intended order.

What is an instruction?Copy Anchor Link

An instruction is the verb in a statement: it describes what to do.

For example:

• tell — send a message.
• command — run a command.
• if — evaluate a condition.
• check — compare values.
• inline — resolve expressions inside a string.

An instruction usually appears at the beginning of a line, followed by its arguments.

What is an action?Copy Anchor Link

An action combines an instruction and its arguments into a complete operation, written as a line or a block.

For example:

• tell "Hello" — an action that sends a message.
• check money >= 100 — an action that returns true or false.
• inline "{{ sender }}" — an action that replaces {{ sender }} with the player's name.

An action can contain smaller actions grouped inside { }:

if check money >= 100 then {
  tell "You have enough money"
  give diamond 1
}

The two lines inside { }, tell and give, are child actions.

Writing Kether means combining actions and deciding the order and conditions under which they execute.
