BlackTools Documentation

The most important command. Shows all commands available at your access level, plus category submenus. Disabled commands are hidden or greyed out.

!h [category]       # categories: cmds · ban · add · manager · master · owner
                      #             btinfo · chaninfo · module · egg

!h                    # your main menu

!h module             # which modules are ON (+) or OFF (-) on #channel
!h chaninfo           # channel flags & eggdrop flood settings
/msg BotNick h #channel ban

The built-in user manual. Displays usage information for every command, protection and module — the same content as this page, live on IRC.

!man <command>

!man b                # manual for the ban command
!man antipub          # manual for the anti-advertising protection
!man banmethod        # explains the 7 punishment methods

Displays the BlackTools version the eggdrop is running.

!version

Invites a user to the channel. The bot must be opped (@) for the invite to work.

!i <nick>          # in channel
/msg BotNick i #channel <nick>

!i JohnDoe           # invite JohnDoe to #channel

Searches the per-channel seen database for a nick, IP or host (wildcards supported). Shows when the person was last seen and what they did. Owners+ can search global across all channels. Flood-protected (2 searches / 20s by default).

!seen <nick|ip|host>
!seen global <nick|ip|host>       # owners+ — all channels

!seen JohnDoe
!seen *!*@*.videotron.ca

Related: +seen module toggle · +seenlastmsg (show last message) · +seenreply (notify people they were searched for)

Shows the last recorded channel activity of a user (last join, part, kick, ban, text…), pulled from the bot's action tracker.

!activ <nick>

Makes multiple eggdrops (all running BlackTools) execute the same command simultaneously — handy when several bots guard the channel.

for <botnick1>,<botnick2>.. <command> [option]

for Bot1,Bot2 say Good morning everyone!

Displays database information about a user or a channel: access level, added hostmasks, automode, greet line, last-seen info, channel topic/URL/manager, and more.

!info <handle|#chan>

!info JohnDoe
!info #channel

Sets a personalised greeting line for yourself, shown in !info and announced by the bot when you join (requires +greet on the channel). Same as !myset greet.

!addinfo <text|reset>

!addinfo Hello everyone, glad to be here!

Gives or removes voice (+v) for one or more users. With no nick, voices you (if you aren't voiced already).

!v [nick1] [nick2]..
!v +        # mass voice everyone
!v -        # mass devoice

!v JohnDoe JaneDoe

Gives or removes op (@) for one or more users. With no nick, ops you.

!o [nick1] [nick2]..
!o +        # mass op
!o -        # mass deop

Gives or removes halfop (+h %) for the specified users. !ho + / !ho - perform a mass halfop / dehalfop.

!ho [nick1] [nick2]..

Applies or removes channel modes.

!mode <+/-modes>

!mode +m          # moderate the channel
!mode -m+ntr

Sets the channel topic. With !set +showhandle, the bot appends the handle of whoever changed it.

!t <text>

!t Welcome to #Channel — read the rules and have fun!

Manually refreshes/re-applies the stored channel topic (see also the +refresh and +autotopic settings).

!r [#chan]

Makes the bot cycle (part and re-join) the channel, optionally waiting a given duration.

!cycle [duration|reason]

Sends a message to all users with op (@) on the channel — or on every channel with all.

!omsg <#chan|all> <text>

!omsg #channel Watch for the spambot wave, set +m if it gets bad

Makes the bot say a message to the channel.

!say [#chan] <message>

!say Quiz night starts in 10 minutes!

Makes the bot send an action (/me) to the channel.

!act [#chan] <message>

!act waves at everyone

Sends a message to any target — a channel, a nick (query) or a chat window.

!msg [target] <message>

Sends a message to all channels the bot is in.

!broadcast <message>

Sends a private verification message to a user — used to test whether they are infected/advertising (drones often auto-reply). The message text is configurable.

!check <nick>

Optional settings: check-message (default check text)

Kicks a user (or everyone matching a mask) from the channel.

!k <nick|mask> [reason]

!k Troublemaker
!k Troublemaker Please keep it civil

Optional settings: k-reason (default kick reason)

Delivers a warning kick — a kick with a configurable warning reason and message.

!w <nick>

Optional settings: w-reason · w-message

The main ban command. Bans a nick or mask for a duration (stock default: 2 days). A duration of 0 makes the ban permanent (blacklisted). -level protects the ban from removal by lower access. Owners+ can add global (all channels) or link (linked channels). -c comment attaches a note visible on the ban entry. Supports CIDR masks like *!*@192.168.0.1/17 — and, new in 2.5.5, regex bans with -regex, matched against nick!ident@host/[realname]/[banmask type] (bracketed fields optional).

!b [-regex] <nick|mask|regex> [-level] [duration] [reason] [-c comment]
!b [-regex] <nick|mask|regex> [-level] [duration] [global|link] [reason]   # owner+

!b SpamGuy 2d advertising
!b *!*@198.51.100.* 12h botnet range
!b Griefer -400 0 permanent, level 400 protection
!b Flooder 3d flooding -c third offence this week
!b -regex [a-z]+[0-9][0-9]!*@* 1d drone pattern

Optional settings: b-reason · b-bantime (default 2d) · b-banmask (default *!*@host)

Removes a ban by nick, mask or ban ID (wildcards supported). If the nick isn't on channel the bot WHOISes and unbans by ident/host/nick — matching regex bans are removed too. Use -regex to remove a stored regex ban directly. Careful: !ub * removes all channel bans.

!ub [-regex] <nick|mask|id|regex> [global|link]

!ub SpamGuy
!ub 1234              # by ban ID (see +showid / !sb)

Searches the banlist and shows full details of a ban — who set it, when, why, expiry, comment. Also matches and inspects regex bans (-regex).

!sb [-regex] <nick|mask|id|regex> [global]

!sb *!*@*.example.net

Shows the active bans on the channel — all of them, only yours, other people's, regex bans only, gags only, or (owners+) the global list. Paged output; follow with -next for more entries.

!banlist <all|handle|regex|gag|other>
!banlist global                    # owner+

Bans a user permanently (blacklist). Equivalent to !b ... 0.

!black <nick|mask> [reason] [-c comment]

!black KnownTroll repeat offender -c do not remove

Optional settings: black-reason · black-banmask

Sets a sticky ban: if anyone removes it from the channel banlist, the bot puts it right back. Stock default duration: 2 days.

!stick <nick|mask> [duration] [reason] [-c comment]

Optional settings: stick-reason · stick-bantime · stick-banmask

Bans on the user's nickname (mask nick!*@*). Default: 2h.

!n <nick>

Optional settings: n-reason · n-bantime · n-banmask

Bans on the user's ident (mask *!user@*). Given a nick, the bot grabs the ident automatically. Default: 2h.

!id <nick|ident>

Optional settings: id-reason · id-bantime · id-banmask

Bans a nickname automatically on ident, with an optional reason. Default: 2d.

!mb <nick> [reason]

Optional settings: mb-reason · mb-bantime

Bans with a default DRONE reason — for compromised clients/drones. Default: 15d.

!dr <nick|mask>

Optional settings: dr-reason · dr-bantime · dr-banmask

Bans with a default VIRUS/TROJAN reason. Default: 3d.

!vr <nick|mask>

Optional settings: vr-reason · vr-bantime · vr-banmask

Bans with a default BOT reason — for unauthorised bots. Default: 7d.

!bot <nick|mask>

Optional settings: bot-reason · bot-bantime · bot-banmask

Bans with a default SPAM reason. Default: 7d.

!spam <nick|mask>

Optional settings: spam-reason · spam-bantime · spam-banmask

Bans with a default bad word reason. Default: 1d.

!bw <nick|mask>

Optional settings: bw-reason · bw-bantime · bw-banmask

Bans with a default TROLL reason. With +showtroll enabled, the bot notices a "trolls of the day" list to access-holders when they join (reset at midnight).

!troll <nick>

Optional settings: troll-reason · +showtroll

Silences a user — they can't write on the channel — for a period (default: 10m). The bot re-bans (+b with mute) if the gag is removed early. !ungag lifts it.

!gag <nick> [duration] [reason]
!ungag <nick|mask>

!gag LoudGuy 30m take a breather

Optional settings: gag-reason · gag-bantime · gag-banmask

Manages the ban-exempt list: hosts on it are never banned by the bot. Owners+ can make an exempt global.

!exempt add <ip|host> [period] [global] [reason]
!exempt list [global]
!exempt del <ip|host> [global]

!exempt add *!*@trusted.users.undernet.org 0 our regular helper

Shows ban/command statistics for a user. Managers+ can reset. Requires the +banstats setting to collect data (see also !banstats total|reset).

!stats <handle> [total|reset]

Lets regular users (and voice/protect) report a nickname for adverts or spam. The bot relays the report to channel ops via @notice. Needs +reportnick and the bot opped. Flood-limited (2 reports / 60s).

!report <nick> <comment>

!report LinkSpammer keeps pasting shady links in PM

Adds a user to the channel's userlist at a given level (voice, op, admin, manager…). If the user is on channel, their current hostmask is added (default style: *!*@host). If not, the Undernet default is used: *!*@<user>.users.undernet.org — so you can add people by X username.

!add <level> <nick|Xusername>

!add op JohnDoe          # JohnDoe is on channel → current host added
!add voice SomeUserX     # not on channel → *!*@SomeUserX.users.undernet.org

Shows the channel's access list, filtered by level or all of it.

!userlist <level|all>       # levels: voice · op · admin · manager · owner · master

!userlist op

Removes a user's access from the channel (their record stays in the bot). Must target someone with lower access than you. Owners can strip global owner|master access too.

!delacc <handle>
!delacc <owner|master> <handle>       # remove a global level

Deletes a user entirely from the bot's database — all channels, all hosts.

!del <handle>

Sets a user's automode — the bot automatically ops or voices them on join. The user must already have access on the channel. Owners+ can apply it -global.

!auto <+/-o> <nick|handle> [-global]       # auto-op
!auto <+/-v> <nick|handle> [-global]       # auto-voice

!auto +v JohnDoe

!s suspends a user's access on the channel for a period (default: 2d); !us lifts the suspension. Only works downward in the hierarchy.

!s <handle> [duration] [reason]
!us <handle>

!s RogueOp 3d abusing kick command

Adds or removes a hostmask on a user's record.

!addhost <handle> <mask>
!delhost <handle> <mask>

!addhost JohnDoe *!*@JohnDoe.users.undernet.org

Renames a user's handle in the bot's database.

!chuser <handle> <newhandle>

The universal switchboard. Turns protections/modules on or off (+flag / -flag) and assigns values to string options. Owners+ can use global to apply a setting to every channel. See the Protections and Modules sections for every flag.

!set <+/-flag>                     # toggle
!set <option> <value>              # assign
!set global <option> <value>       # owner+ — all channels

!set +antipub                     # enable anti-advertising
!set chanmode +ntk s3cret         # enforce modes incl. a key
!set b-bantime 4h                 # default !b duration → 4 hours
!set url https://www.example.com

Resets a setting/option back to default. Owners+ can unset global.

!unset <flag|option>
!unset global <flag|option>

Shows the current value of any setting.

!show <setting>

!show antipub-bantime

Enables/disables a command on the channel — for everyone or for a specific user. Masters+ can apply it globally (commands only, not users). Disabled commands show greyed-out in !h.

!disable <command|all> [user] [global]
!enable <command|all> [user] [global]

!disable k TriggerHappyOp     # take !k away from one user
!enable all

Adds, lists or removes bot-level ignores (default duration: 6h).

!ignore add <ip|mask> [duration] [reason]
!ignore list
!ignore del <ip|host>

Deletes the channel from the bot's channel database (manager-only variant of delchan).

!purge <#chan> <reason>

Adds a channel to the bot (it joins immediately; an optional key is used to get in) or removes one.

!addchan <#chan> [key]
!delchan <#chan> <reason>

Suspends a channel — the bot leaves and won't join or act in it — or reverses that.

!suspend <#chan> <reason>
!unsuspend <#chan>

Lists all channels the bot is joined to (channels flagged +invisible are hidden from non-boss users).

!channels

Copies configuration from one channel to another.

!cp <userlist|banlist|settings|badchans> <#chan1> <#chan2>

!cp settings #channel #channel-ops

ChanLink module — synchronises bans across two or more channels: a ban added on one linked channel is mirrored to the others (and removed everywhere on unban).

!link <#chan1> <#chan2> | all
!link del <#chan>
!link <list|reset>
# then, ad hoc:
!b <nick|mask> [duration] link [reason]
!ub <nick|mask> link

!uptime shows how long the bot has been up, when it connected and to which server. !status shows monitored channels, total users, version and bot owner.

!uptime
!status

die shuts the bot down. restart restarts it as a background process (use when lagged/malfunctioning). rehash reloads all files after user/channel record changes. save writes the user/channel files to disk.

!die [reason]   ·   !restart   ·   !rehash   ·   !save

Makes the bot connect to a different IRC server.

!jump [irc server]

!jump Ashburn.Va.Us.UnderNet.org

Changes the bot's nickname. !set nick <newnick> makes it permanent (written to the config).

!nick <newnick>

Manually logs the bot in to ChanServ (X on Undernet) using the configured username/password. Auto-login is controlled by black(autologin) in BlackTools.tcl.

!login

Connects you to the bot's botnet/partyline — same as /CTCP BotNick CHAT.

!chat

Manages Tcl scripts live: list, download from a URL (restricted to *.tcl), load, unload, or inspect.

!tcl list
!tcl wget <link/name.tcl>
!tcl load <name.tcl>

!set +spamjoinmessage · !set antispam-message <text>

Stock defaults: ban 6d · mask *!*@host · settings: antispam-scantime

!set +noproxy

Stock defaults: ban 1h · settings: noproxy-reason · noproxy-bantime

Bans users who try to invite the bot into unauthorised channels.

!set +dontdeop
!set +dontop

Undernet-specific botnet shield. Works with channel modes +Dm: each first-time joiner receives a unique code to confirm before being let in. +strictsecured requires the code on every join. Known-good hosts can be whitelisted.

!set +securemode
!securemode add <ip|mask> · del <no.> · list
!set +strictsecured

Periodically scans for clones (multiple connections from one host) and bans them. Stock defaults: max 3 clones, scan every 45m, ban 180m.

!set +clonescan
!clonescan add <ip|mask> # whitelist · del <no.> · list

Settings: clonescan-maxclone · clonescan-bantime · clonescan-reason · clonescan-scantime

Bans users who sit in forbidden channels (wardriving hack/warez/adult channels — a default list ships in the config). Scans every 10m; method 1 warns and gives 30s to leave the bad channel first. +showbadchan tells the ops which bad channel triggered it. Rewritten in 2.5.5 — faster and safer — and now accepts regex badchans.

!badchan <ON|OFF>
!badchan add <#badchan> [global] [reason]
!badchan regex <#regex> [reason]    # e.g. #[a-z]+[0-9][0-9]

Stock defaults: ban 6h · mask *!*@host · settings: badchan-scantime · badchan-bmethod · badchan-banwait · badchan-floodcontrol (join-flood pause, 5:5)

Lets the bot ask Undernet's X for op, voice, invite, or to unban itself when it needs help.

!set +xtools

Full channel administration through X: the bot performs all BlackTools commands via X even when it isn't opped. X bans use their own level and duration.

!set +xonly
!set xbantime <time> · !set xbanlevel <level>

Stock defaults: X ban time 1 · X ban level 100

Per-channel seen database powering the !seen command. Extras: +seenlastmsg (include the person's last message) and +seenreply (tell users who searched for them). Entries expire after 730 days.

!set +seen · !set +seenlastmsg · !set +seenreply

Channel welcome and goodbye messages. Greet supports the Count variables: %nick%, %countchan%, %count% (join number), %time%. Use ~ to split into multiple sentences.

!greet <ON|OFF> · !greet set <message>
!leave <ON|OFF> · !leave set <message>
!set greet-method <NOTICE|PRIVMSG> · !set leave-method <NOTICE|PRIVMSG>

!greet set Welcome to %countchan%, %nick%!~You are visitor number %count% since %time%

Rotates announcements/ads on the channel — but only while the channel is active (no activity = no ads). Supports %chan% and %botnick%, multi-sentence with ~.

!anunt <ON|OFF>
!anunt add <text> · list · del <no.>
!set anunt-showtime <period>

Stock interval: 52m

Broadcasts stored messages, one at a time, across all channels. Channels flagged +silent are skipped.

!bt <ON|OFF>
!bt add <message> · list · del <no.>
!set +silent          # opt this channel out

Stock interval: 55m, sent as ACTION

Keeps the channel limit (+l) floating a few places above the current user count — an old-school anti-massjoin trick. Stock margin: 6.

!limit <ON|OFF>
!limit set <number>

Stores the official channel topic and URL. +autotopic re-applies them whenever someone changes the topic; +refresh re-applies on an interval; !r does it manually. +showurl appends the URL to ban reasons.

!topic set <text> · !topic unset
!set url <url>
!set +autotopic · !set +refresh · !set +showurl

De-ops/-voices/-halfops users who idle too long. Stock defaults: ops 10m, voices 30m, halfops 30m, scanned every 5m. An exception list is available. Since 2.5.5 the module waits while the channel is +mD under SecureMode.

!idle <+/-o | +/-v | +/-ho>
!idle add <nick> · list · del <nick>
!set idleopmax <period> · idlevoicemax · idlehalfopmax · idle-scantime

Lets X-logged users voice themselves with /msg BotNick voiceme #channel. Extras: +onlyonmode restricts it to when the channel is +m (with a periodic channel hint, default 25m); +nologged allows users without an X username too.

!set +voiceme
!set +onlyonmode · !set +nologged · !set voiceme-showtime <period>
# users then do:
/msg BotNick voiceme #channel

Auto-voices active chatters (stock default: after 3 lines) and devoices them after idling too long (default: 2h). Users with access are ignored.

!set +voiceonmsg
!set voiceonmsg-linenum <lines> · !set voiceonmsg-idletime <duration>

Makes the channel access-only: anyone without bot access (or an exception) is banned on join.

!set +private
!private add <nick> <ip|mask> · list · del <nick>

Stock defaults: ban 60m · mask *!*@host

Lets the script update itself from GitHub when a new version or bugfix is released — automatically on a timer, or by command. All BT files and the settings from BlackTools.tcl are backed up and restored; the bot can auto-restart when an update requires it. Config: update_on (kill switch), update_type (0 = timer + command, 1 = command only), update_time_check (stock: 60m).

!update <on|off>       # enable/disable autoupdate
!update check          # check for new versions
!update start          # run the update now
!update time [period]  # get/set the check interval (Xm/Xh/Xd)

Lets users create their own personalized commands on top of any BT command, with %1%, %2%… as argument placeholders. Aliases follow the user (renamed with chuser, removed when the user is deleted or expires).

!alias add <command> <BT command> [arguments]
!alias del <command>

!alias add lamer b %1% 0 You are a lamer !!   # then: !lamer BadGuy
!alias add beer cycle %1% %2% Gone for a beer, back soon

Channel voting system: open a voting with multiple options, an optional expiry time, and choose whether only users with access or everyone may vote. Users answer with the option letter. +votegreet tells joiners when votings are open.

!set +vote
!vote add <vote_name> -option <opt1> -option <opt2>.. [-time DD/MM/YY HH:MM] [-type 1|0]
!vote <ID> <letter>              # cast your vote
!vote list [ID] · !vote time <ID> <DD/MM/YY HH:MM> · !vote end <ID> · !vote del <ID>

!vote add NewTopic -option Keep it -option Change it -time 31/12/25 20:00 -type 0

Optional settings: vote-mask (voter identity mask, stock *!*@host) · -type default: all users

Help-queue system (built for support channels like #TCL-HELP): users wait in line, helpers voice the next one in order. +nextshortcmd enables the short aliases.

Records chat statistics per user (words, lines, letters — daily and total). +accessonly restricts counting to users with bot access.

!set +topwords
!topwords <nick> [total|reset]
!set +accessonly

Channel quote database with add/search/list/delete — plus an optional "Quote of the Day" that posts a random stored quote on an interval (stock default: every 3h). Since 2.5.5 the quote:usage config setting chooses who may add/list/remove quotes: users with access only (stock) or everyone.

!set +quote
!q <text>          # add (use ~ for multi-sentence)
!q <word>          # search
!q list · !q del <no.>
!set +quoteofday · !set quoteofday-showtime <period>

Private note system: store personal notes or send them to other handles — delivered when they next appear. The bot also notes global owners whenever it gets banned or locked out of a channel. Inbox expires after 365 days (per-user override: !myset noteexpire).

!set +note
!note send <handle> <message>
!note <read|list|inbox> · !note del <no.|all>

Gives the channel a private "back-channel" where the bot reports every ban it sets on the main channel — and where you can issue ban commands that apply to the main channel. One backchan per channel.

!set backchan <#backchan>

!set backchan #channel-ops

Keeps statistics of every kick and ban on the channel (feeds the !stats command). Daily counters reset at midnight.

!set +banstats
!banstats <total|reset>

Sets the channel's reply language and the language used in kick/ban reasons. Available: EN (english) · RO (romanian). Each user can override with !myset lang.

!set lang <EN|RO>

+forward forwards PMs the bot receives (from strangers) to a channel. +invisible hides the channel from the bot's channel list. expirebans sets how long channel bans live before auto-removal (stock default: 120m; 0 = never remove).

!set +forward · !set +invisible · !set expirebans <period>
