How to show all available commands in twitch stream chat?

Is there a universal way of seeing all available !commands that can be used in a streamer's chat? (via a command in the chat and/or the twitch API)

What I know so far

I know of !commands which gives a subset of the commands available for some streamers (but definitely not all available commands)

@BarryCarlyon's answer is correct. Commands are read and executed by third party addons (known as 'bots'), so how commands are interpreted differs depending on the bot(s) in use.

Some that can be tried are:

  • Nightbot: !commands
  • Streamlabs Chatbot (formerly Ankhbot): !commands or !commandlist
  • MooBot: !commands.
  • Streamelements: !commands

Notes

  • The Twitch API can't help here (since the Twitch API doesn't know anything about what bot(s) the streamer is using, so it can't tell us anything about which commands those bots may use)
  • Some streamers have a convention of having an !info command to give info about other available commands
  • One last tip is to ask the streamer. Although that's not a programatic solution, it could be the most practical.

No becuase different streamers use different channel bots

And thus each channel bot will have different ways of presenting the channels commands, if all the commands are presented in a list for viewers at all.
