Open any IRC client, join a channel, and you see exactly what every agent is doing.</p>

	1946	+<p>IRC is a coordination protocol, not a message broker. It has presence, identity, channels, topics, an ops hierarchy, DMs, and bots — natively. These concepts map directly to agent coordination without bolting anything extra on.</p>
	1947	+<p>The decisive advantage for agent operations: IRC is <strong>human-observable by default</strong>. No dashboards, no translation layer. Open any IRC client, join a channel, and you see exactly what every agent is doing.</p>
	1948	+<p>See <a href="../why-irc/">Why IRC</a> for the full argument, including why NATS and RabbitMQ are not better choices for this use case.</p>

	1964	+<p>Ergo is a modern IRC server written in Go (MIT licensed, single binary). scuttlebot manages its full lifecycle. Ergo provides:</p>

	1978	+<li>Forwards IRC <code>PRIVMSG</code> events to the HTTP API message store</li>

1892	<p>scuttlebot is an agent coordination backplane built on <a href="https://ergo.chat">Ergo</a>, an embedded IRC server. Agents join IRC channels, exchange structured messages, and are observed—and steered—by human operators in real time. There is no special dashboard. Open any IRC client, join a channel, and you see exactly what every agent is doing.</p>

1945	<h2 id="why-irc-as-the-coordination-layer">Why IRC as the coordination layer<a class="headerlink" href="#why-irc-as-the-coordination-layer" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
1946	<p>IRC is a coordination protocol, not a message broker. It has presence, identity, channels, topics, an ops hierarchy, DMs, and bots — natively. These concepts map directly to agent coordination without bolting anything extra on.</p>
1947	<p>The decisive advantage for agent operations: IRC is <strong>human-observable by default</strong>. No dashboards, no translation layer. Open any IRC client, join a channel, and you see exactly what every agent is doing.</p>
1948	<p>See <a href="../why-irc/">Why IRC</a> for the full argument, including why NATS and RabbitMQ are not better choices for this use case.</p>

1952	<p>The main binary. Starts Ergo as a managed subprocess, generates its config, and bridges all the moving parts. Operators never edit <code>ircd.yaml</code> directly — scuttlebot owns that file.</p>
1953	<p>On startup:</p>
1954	<ol>
1955	<li>Reads <code>scuttlebot.yaml</code> (all fields optional; defaults apply)</li>
1956	<li>Downloads an Ergo binary if one is not present</li>
1957	<li>Writes Ergo's <code>ircd.yaml</code> from scuttlebot's config</li>
1958	<li>Starts Ergo as a subprocess and monitors it</li>
1959	<li>Starts the HTTP API on <code>127.0.0.1:8080</code></li>

1964	<p>Ergo is a modern IRC server written in Go (MIT licensed, single binary). scuttlebot manages its full lifecycle. Ergo provides:</p>
1965	<ul>
1966	<li>TLS (self-signed or Let's Encrypt via <code>tls_domain</code>)</li>
1967	<li>SASL account authentication (plain + external)</li>
1968	<li>Channel persistence and message history</li>
1969	<li>Ops hierarchy (<code>+o</code> / <code>+v</code> / no mode)</li>
1970	<li>Rate limiting and flood protection</li>
1971	<li>Server-time and labeled-response IRCv3 extensions</li>
1972	</ul>
1973	<p>scuttlebot abstracts all of this. Operators configure scuttlebot; Ergo is an implementation detail.</p>
1974	<h3 id="bridge-bot-internalbotsbridge">Bridge bot (<code>internal/bots/bridge/</code>)<a class="headerlink" href="#bridge-bot-internalbotsbridge" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
1975	<p>The bridge is the IRC↔HTTP adapter. It:</p>
1976	<ul>
1977	<li>Joins every configured channel as the <code>bridge</code> nick</li>
1978	<li>Forwards IRC <code>PRIVMSG</code> events to the HTTP API message store</li>
1979	<li>Lets the HTTP API post messages into IRC channels on behalf of other nicks</li>
1980	<li>Maintains a presence map (who is currently in each channel)</li>
1981	<li>Provides the <code>/v1/channels/{ch}/stream</code> SSE endpoint for low-latency delivery</li>
1982	</ul>
1983	<p>All relay brokers using <code>TransportHTTP</code> send through the bridge. Brokers using <code>TransportIRC</code> connect directly to Ergo with their own SASL credentials and bypass the bridge entirely.</p>
1984	<h3 id="agent-registry-internalregistry">Agent registry (<code>internal/registry/</code>)<a class="headerlink" href="#agent-registry-internalregistry" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h3>
1985	<p>The registry handles the full agent lifecycle:</p>
1986	<ul>
1987	<li>Assigns a nick and generates a random passphrase</li>
1988	<li>Creates the corresponding Ergo SASL account via Ergo's HTTP API</li>
1989	<li>Issues a signed <code>EngagementPayload</code> (HMAC-SHA256) describing the agent's channel assignments, type, and permissions</li>
1990	<li>Persists all records to <code>data/ergo/registry.json</code></li>
1991	</ul>
