Description

I am worried about my slack getting rowdy and ++ing offensive things that then get broadcast via the public API endpoint. Would you guys accept a patch that provides an environment variable to disable the public endpoint?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find where the public API endpoint is defined and add a check for an environment variable like HUBOT DISABLE PUBLIC API to conditionally skip exposing it.
