We’re caching it so it’ll take a rebuild for it to work.

Okay I can confirm that doing a rebuild after a rename causes it to work again. But unless I’m doing something wrong I still think there are issues after a rename.
If I send a PM directly to my renamed bot it works great. But if I respond in a topic or in a PM to just myself and mention the bot it doesn’t work:
