The project maintains a number of IRC bots designed to improve the user/community experience on IRC. At present, they are only deployed on the Libera.Chat IRC network.
Official FreeBSD IRC bots always have the freebsd/bot/<nickname> hostmask cloak, with a link in their /whois information pointing to this page.
