hi! i play bara maesters so one question if i kneel my maester can i use king roberts hammer to stand him and then trigger steel link to stand the location or can i only trigger it in the action window of kneeling him for gold link for example? and one more think what happens when iron throne (lanister) targets meera reed or catelyn (low)? tnx!

There timing here is the difference between Player Actions (anything marked with a phase or "any phase") and responses.

Action: Kneel Maester for Intrigue Challenge
Responses (Anything that triggers off kneeling the maester)

Opponent's Action (Pass?)

Your action: Stand Maester with King Robert's Hammer
Responses: Probably none at this point

Action: Kneel Maester for Gold Link
Response: Trigger Steel link to stand King Robert's Hammer.

The iron throne cannot cancel either Meera's any-phase or catelyn's challenges text, because they are triggered from out of play. That makes them "character effects" not character abilities. You can, however, cancel Meera's "Response" effect, since that is a character ability.
