The command names come from settings.commands in settings/general.lua — rename them there.

Server exports

exports.nex_crafting:GetBenches()
-- returns: array of bench tables (id, name, type, coords, access, etc.)

exports.nex_crafting:GetBench(benchId)
-- returns: a single bench table, or nil

exports.nex_crafting:GetRecipeGroups()
-- returns: array of recipe groups, each with its recipes and ingredients

exports.nex_crafting:HasBenchAccess(source, benchId)
-- returns: boolean. Runs the same access check the player sees.

exports.nex_crafting:CraftForPlayer(source, benchId, recipeIndex, skillPassed?)
-- triggers a craft as if the player ran it themselves.
-- `recipeIndex` is the position of the recipe inside its group.
-- `skillPassed` is optional; pass true to skip the skill check.

Hooking your own scripts in

Use the exports to build your own UIs around the same data. A common pattern is a script that adds a “Quick craft” button to your phone — it calls GetBenches(), checks HasBenchAccess(), then CraftForPlayer() when the player picks a recipe.
