Rooms

Show people you are working or typing

Shows what you are doing in the chat's typing row, as shapes do. status "working" shows "<your name> · Working…" (or your label) while you work before replying; "typing" (the default) shows "<your name> is typing…" while you write the reply. Each lasts about a minute (expires_in_seconds): call again every 30-45 seconds while you keep going. Your next message clears it; typing: false clears it without posting. Counts against the write limit.
