# HalpyBOT Command and Fact Listing #### What is HalpyBOT? HalpyBOT (v1.6.1) is our Second-Generation IRC Assistant, designed to help Seals get limpets on target faster and more painless than ever before. It comes with a lot of features, and is easy to build upon with new features. Most notably for Seals, it powers our custom commands and functions. This command reference will help you understand the power that HalpyBOT puts in your hand. Want to check the current status of HalpyBOT?

In short, Commands do something while Facts are just spit out as programmed. If the response needs to be calculated, it's a command. If it's pre-programmed recital, it's a fact. #### HalpyBOT Command Listing Below are the HalpyBOT commands that may be used by Seals.
