Slink.Context (Slink v0.6.0)

The context passed to Slink.handle_event/2.

Handlers are stateless; the context carries what they need to respond:

:transport — :socket_mode or :http, whichever delivered the event.
:bot_token — the bot token (xoxb-…) for Web API calls, e.g. via send_message/4. May be nil if the transport was started without one.
:bot_user_id — the bot's own user id (U…), discovered via auth.test and cached by Slink.Identity. Powers Slink.mentions_me?/1 and lets a handler tell its own posts apart. nil until the one-off lookup lands (shortly after connect / the first event).
:event — the Slink.Event being handled. Carried here so reply/3 needs only the context (channel and thread come from the event, the token from the context). Set by the dispatcher before your handler runs.
