Command Reference

This is the complete reference for all Inquisitor IRC commands. Every command available in the bot is documented here regardless of permission level. Permission levels are noted for each entry. The default command prefix is @ but may differ depending on your bot configuration.

Permission Summary

Permission	Commands
None (no permission required)	@activate, @category list, @duration, @info, @mypermissions, @poolstatus, @question help, @questionset help, @questionset list, @questionset stats, @record, @settings help, @setup
PLAY	@mystats, @recall, @settings diff, @settings get, @settings list, @skip, @stats, @topall, @topday, @topever, @topmonth, @topweek

ADMIN	@crossstats, @deactivate, @deny, @grant, @importconfirm, @importpointsconfirm, @importpointspreview, @importpreview, @listnetworks, @listperms, @lockout, @mergeuser, @netstatus, @permissions, @points combine, @question bulkdelete, @question bulkmove, @questionset delete, @reactivate, @revoke, @setmasterlog, @setnetlog, @settings set-default, @settings show-overrides
Owner (Limnoria owner capability)	@dbconnect, @dbmigrate, @dbstatus
Varies (permission of the operation being confirmed)	@confirm

• @setup and @activate need no permission, but each works only once. @setup is refused after global setup is complete; whoever runs it first becomes the first global ADMIN. @activate is refused on a network that has already been activated; to bring back a deactivated network, use @reactivate (ADMIN).
• @settings set and @settings reset need ADMIN for admin-only settings, and a network-wide ADMIN grant for settings that apply to the whole network. @settings import needs ADMIN when the JSON contains admin-only settings. @settings export network needs ADMIN. @settings set-default needs a global ADMIN (the setup admin or a Limnoria owner). @settings diff against another network needs a global ADMIN.
• @topall is an alias of @topever. The top commands take a paging suffix: @topday20 shows ranks 11–20.
• @question bulkdelete and @question bulkmove are @question subcommands with their own pages.
