 AutoBotRobot has many features, but not necessarily any practical ones.
 It can execute code via TIO.run, do reminders, print fortunes, bridge IRC, store data, and search things!
 AutoBotRobot is open source - the code is available at <https://github.com/osmarks/AutoBotRobot> - and you could run your own instance if you wanted to and could get around the complete lack of user guide or documentation.
