GroupBuffToggle — aura content, UI labels and stored data

The content comes from the game, not a static spell list

Unlike a curated combat-addon whitelist, this addon does not store names or icons for individual spells. It queries the current game client's UnitBuff textures for five possible units:

Unit token	Vanilla frame anchor	Cap
`party1`	`PartyMemberFrame1`	16 buffs
`party2`	`PartyMemberFrame2`	16 buffs
`party3`	`PartyMemberFrame3`	16 buffs
`party4`	`PartyMemberFrame4`	16 buffs
`target`	`TargetFrame`	16 buffs

The game supplies textures, their order and the tooltip returned for the unit/index. The addon doesn't generate individual buff names, build a spell database, communicate with the party or log aura history.

Authored controls and text

The two checkboxes use the simple label Buffs.
Party checkbox tooltip: Group Buffs, explaining party-member buffs beside group frames.
Target checkbox tooltip: Target Buffs, explaining buffs beside the target frame.
Chat command prefix uses Group Buffs: and shows command status.
Slash help displays group, groupbox, target, targetbox with on|off|toggle choices.

The names are English literals, but individual buff tooltips come from the game. The project contains no localization directory or translated settings UI.

Saved flags

GroupBuffsDB, account-wide:

Field	Initial value	Meaning
`enabled`	false	Party buff grid visible when appropriate
`targetEnabled`	false	Target buff grid visible when appropriate
`groupCheckbox`	true	Show contextual party Buffs checkbox
`targetCheckbox`	true	Show contextual target Buffs checkbox

The settings persist through game SavedVariables, shared across characters in the account. There is no persisted buff content, player name, target identity, instance or session history.

The older project data used OctoGroupBuffsDB until the September 18 rename; users need the documented migration if moving existing configuration.

Assets and provenance

The addon bundles no screenshots, custom icons, fonts or images. Buff textures and border materials come from the WoW client via UnitBuff, UICheckButtonTemplate, UI-Debuff-Overlays, etc., not from a new art collection in the repository.

A real MIT License is included, with 2026 Babuni.dev copyright. The license applies to the repository's software/documentation as written; it doesn't transfer ownership of Blizzard game assets to Babuni.dev or an AI assistant.

The published v1.2.0 release contains a ZIP and checksum, but those bytes were not downloaded or compared during this documentation task. No private aura state was exported.
