Mediabot v3 continues its 3.4 development cycle with another script-bridge round focused on practical examples, documentation truth and safer configuration.
This update is not about adding noise. It is about making the new event system easier to understand, easier to copy and harder to misconfigu…
Mediabot v3 continues its 3.4 development cycle with a new round focused on script observability, practical examples and safer event-driven automation.
This is not a cosmetic update. It makes the script bridge easier to operate, easier to learn and more useful for long-running IRC communities.

Mediabot v3 continues its 3.4 development cycle with a new internal milestone focused on the script bridge, delayed actions and safety guards.
This update is not a flashy user-facing release, but it matters a lot for long-term reliability: script-driven actions can now schedule guarded timers, wh…
After a long school year spent among bubbling cauldrons, MariaDB migrations, protection spells, and strange creatures hiding in the logs, Mediabot 3.3 is officially out.
This new stable release does more than add a few new tricks. It strengthens the whole castle:

No stable release switch has been made yet: this is another polishing pass, not the final 3.3 tag.

The previous chapter left Mediabot with stronger authentication, safer deployment checks, a real security audit, and a cleaner release path toward 3.3.
This new pass is different.
It adds features that users will actually feel on IRC: delayed messages that arrive when someone joins, typo sugge…
The previous chapter ended with Mediabot checking its own installation at startup, preserving accented text across more of the IRC pipeline, and gaining disposable lifecycle and games smoke tests for the road to 3.3.
The next pass was smaller, but it followed an important rule:
