  //   Color     (optional) the text color for this command. Falls back to DefaultColor.
  //   Cooldown  (optional) a wait in seconds between uses of this one command. 0 means no wait.
  //   Permission(optional) a Permissions node. If set, only players with the node can use it,
  //             and it only shows in /help for them. Leave it out for a command everyone can use.
  //   Header    (optional) a first line printed before the rest.
  //   Lines     (optional) a list of text lines to print.
  //   Links     (optional) a list of { "Label": "...", "Url": "..." } pairs printed as "Label: Url".
  // A command needs Lines or Links (or both) to show anything.
  //
  // Text tags you can use in any Header, Line, or MOTD line:
  //   {server}  your server name (from Tags below)
  //   {online}  how many players are online right now
  //   {map}     the map name
  //   {player}  the name of the player who ran the command
  //   {time}    the server clock, like 14:30
  //   {date}    the date, like 2026-07-07
