# TOG Tools — Lightweight Utility Toolkit for WoW Classic

TOG Tools is a small collection of quality-of-life utilities that don't need a full addon of their own. Each tool lives in its own tab inside a single tidy window — open with `/togt`. New tools will be added over time.

## Features

### Name Prefix

Automatically adds a nickname in front of your chat messages so guildmates know who is talking, even when your character name doesn't match the name everyone knows you by. Useful for shared accounts, alts, or anyone who goes by a different name in their community.

- Set any nickname you like — it will be inserted at the start of your message before it is sent
- Fully configurable format: choose between (Name):, [Name], Name —, or any pattern you want using a simple format string
- Live preview updates as you type so you always see exactly what your messages will look like
- Enable per channel: Guild, Officer, Party, Raid, Instance / Battleground, or a specific custom channel by name
- Option to skip messages that start with ! so addon commands like `!keys` or `!roll` are never prefixed
- Option to suppress the prefix automatically on characters where your nickname already matches your character's name
- Works on all supported WoW versions — Classic Era, TBC, Wrath, Cataclysm, Mists, and Retail

### Addon Load Monitor

A diagnostic tab that shows every installed addon at a glance — how much memory it uses, whether it loaded successfully, and how long it took to load during the loading screen. Helpful for spotting heavy or slow addons, missing dependencies, or addons that failed to load.

- One row per installed addon: name, memory used, load time, and status
- Sort by any column — click the header. Status sorts failures first so you spot problems immediately
- Status badges: Loaded, On Demand, Disabled, Missing, Dep Missing, Wrong Version, Corrupt TOC, Outdated
- Summary bar shows total addons, how many loaded / failed / disabled, total memory used, and the overall loading-screen duration
- Accurate sub-millisecond load times for every addon when the !TOGT companion is installed (a tiny no-UI helper that loads first and records the timing — auto-installed via CurseForge)
- Window resizes gracefully — columns compact and text truncates instead of wrapping

## Slash Commands

- `/togt` — open the main window
- `/togt np` — jump straight to the Name Prefix settings tab
- `/togt al` — jump straight to the Addon Load Monitor tab
- `/togt settings` — open the addon settings panel
- `/togt vc` — check addon versions across the guild (Classic only)

## Requirements

- Ace3 (AceAddon-3.0, AceDB-3.0, AceGUI-3.0, AceConsole-3.0) — auto-installed by CurseForge
- !TOGT companion — tiny helper that records full addon load timing (auto-installed by CurseForge)
- WoW Classic Era, TBC, Wrath, Cataclysm, Mists of Pandaria, or Retail — all versions supported

## Recent Updates

v0.2.0 (2026-05-04) — Addon Load Monitor

- New Addon Load tab: see every installed addon's memory use, load time, and load status at a glance. Sort by any column, with failures sorted to the top of the Status column.
- Pairs with the new !TOGT companion (auto-installed) to capture sub-millisecond load timing for every single addon, not just the ones whose folder name comes after T in the alphabet.
- Tab body resizes gracefully: shrinking the window horizontally elastically compacts the Addon Name column and truncates text instead of wrapping rows to multiple lines.
- Click a column header to sort; click again to reverse. Memory and Load Time default to highest-first, Status sorts failures first.

v0.1.0 (2026-05-04) — Initial release

- First release: TOG Tools addon with the Name Prefix tool — set a nickname that automatically appears at the start of your chat messages, configurable per channel with a live format preview.
- Minimap button: left-click to open the main window, right-click to open the addon settings panel directly.
- Addon settings panel integrated into the native ESC → Interface → Addons → TOG Tools page, with a toggle to show or hide the minimap button.
- Slash command `/togt` with subcommands: `np`, `settings`, and `vc` (guild version check, Classic only).
