I want to implement a speaker queue manager that works off of the chat - see GitHub repo Q Bot for more details - but are unable to find a way to listen to chat events (and then react to them). Any hints?

There's no way to access chat from the Hangouts API.

There is, however, an open feature request for this. If you star the issue you'll be notified when it's updated.

You might be able to work around this by making your own interface in a Hangout extension to control the inputs for this app, rather than overloading the chat feature.
