RoboBot is not strictly limited to IRC. Any text-based chat protocol can be
supported via the network plugin interface. Out of the box, RoboBot supports
standard IRC networks (with or without SSL), the Slack RTM API, and Mattermost
WebSockets/Web Services APIs. A single instance of RoboBot may mix and match
connections to as many different chat protocols as you wish.

Other chat protocols, such as the various instant messaging platforms, could be
added fairly easily, providing there is already a CPAN module (compatible with
AnyEvent) or you are willing to write one. Network plugins need only implement
a handful of methods (connect, disconnect, join\_channel, and send) as well as
register any callbacks required to deal with messages coming in over the wire.
Any functionality beyond that is generally optional, though some protocols may
require some additional support (e.g. Slack support requires ID<->name mappings
via Slack API calls for both channels and participants).

### Plugins

The bulk of RoboBot's functionality is implemented through a generic plugin
interface, allowing developers to export functions for direct use by channel
members, or to hook into message and response parsing phases before and after
expression evaluation.
