/cs

Manage channel registration and access lists through ChanServ, the channel services bot. ChanServ keeps your channel settings safe even when no operators are online.

Syntax

/cs <subcommand> [arguments]

How It Works

ChanServ is an automated service that manages channel ownership and access. When you register a channel, ChanServ remembers who owns it and who has operator privileges, automatically restoring them when those users join. This prevents channels from becoming "ownerless" when operators disconnect.

Subcommands

register - Register and claim ownership of the current channel (you must be operator).
drop - Unregister the current channel, giving up ownership.
info - View current-channel registration details.
sop add/del/list <nick> - Manage Super Operators (can manage AOP and VOP lists).
aop add/del/list <nick> - Manage Auto Operators (get operator on join).
vop add/del/list <nick> - Manage Auto Voice (get voice on join).

Rules & Limits

  • You must be a registered user to use ChanServ
  • You must be a channel operator to register a channel
  • Access hierarchy: Owner > SOP > AOP > VOP

Examples

/join #mychannel /cs register /cs info /cs aop add Alice /cs aop list /cs vop add Bob /cs drop
