 ### Configuration
 
+`config.robot.name` will be used as Tox user name
+
+Mentions in Tox usually use user name, Tox clients usually allow mentioning
+by writing first letters of user name and pressing `<Tab>`, so don't use
+`config.robot.mention_name`

 #### Optional attributes
 
 - `savedata_filename` (String) - Path to file where Tox state will be stored (if provided)
+- `status` (String) - Tox user status
