Based on the original OCTOTROG bot written in Perl by shmup: https://github.com/shmup/octotrog
The Perl version wasn't terribly maintainable, so I rewrote it using Node and the nodeirc library, which is much more flexible.
The bot's main function is to send commands from an IRC channel to a pantheon of infobots on another server, and relay the response back.
