FORBID accepted and stored EMAIL patterns, but nothing ever checked them:
a forbidden address still registered and could be set via NickServ SET
EMAIL. Both paths now reject a matching address (new ForbiddenEmail
outcome), matching how NICK and CHAN forbids already gate registration.
Lets an account keep its last-seen/online line in INFO visible only to
itself and to opers. Default stays public (Anope's default). Accepts
STATUS (with USERMASK as an alias) per Anope's SET HIDE <field> grammar.
The account's last-active time was tracked but never surfaced. INFO now
reports it, reading 'now (online)' when the account has a live session.
Threads NetView into the INFO handler for the session lookup and carries
last_seen on AccountView.
Nick protection was unconditional. SET KILL OFF lets an account opt out —
an unidentified user keeping one of its nicks is no longer prompted or
renamed to a guest. Stored inverted (no_protect) so protection stays the
default. Accepts Anope's ON/QUICK/IMMED/OFF; grace is a fixed interval
here, so the finer variants simply enable protection like ON.
A user with SET AUTOOP OFF is never auto-opped on join, even where they
hold channel access — they op themselves via ChanServ UP. Stored inverted
(no_autoop) so the default stays auto-op. Join gates on both the channel
setting and the account preference; either can opt out.
SET NOTIFY {ON|OFF} controls whether you're told about new memos on login;
SET LIMIT <n>|NONE sets your mailbox cap (honoured on SEND, NONE = the
network default). New memo_notify/memo_limit account fields + one
MemoPrefsSet event.
Split RECOVER from GHOST: GHOST just frees a session off a nick you own,
while RECOVER also puts you back onto it (frees the ghost if present, then
SVSNICKs you to the nick). RECOVER works on an already-free nick too.
GETEMAIL (auspex) lists accounts whose email matches a glob. SET
RESTRICTED makes a channel kick anyone without access (or oper) as they
join, mirroring the SECUREOPS on-join enforcement.
SET <#channel> SUCCESSOR <account>|OFF names an account that inherits the
channel if the founder's account is dropped or expires, instead of the
channel being released. Adds a ChannelInfo.successor field + event, and
centralises the founder-gone channel release into a single
release_founded_channels store method used by DROP, expiry, and the
gossip account-gone path so all three transfer consistently.
UPDATE re-applies your auto-joins and vhost and re-checks for waiting
memos without re-identifying. LIST (auspex-gated) shows registered
accounts matching a glob, capped at 100. Adds an accounts_matching store
method.
Each service now exposes its help catalog via Service::help_topics; the
engine collects them into a network-wide index on Network, reachable
through two new NetView methods. HelpServ uses it: HELP <service>
[command] (or a bare service name) serves any service's per-command
help, bare HELP lists the services, and its own ticket commands still
work. No cross-crate dependency: the catalog flows through the SDK's
NetView, keeping every module dependent only on echo-api.
New echo-api primitive: a HelpEntry table plus a shared help() renderer.
HELP lists a service's commands; HELP <command> prints that command's
detail. Every service routes its HELP arm through the one renderer, so
the shape is identical across the network. Wired into NickServ and the
six newer services so far.
Rebrand the daemon and workspace: the binary is now `echo`, every crate
is `echo-*` (`echo-api` and the module crates), Rust imports use
`echo_*`, the gRPC proto is `proto/echo.proto` with package `echo.v1`,
and the log filter, gossip peer-name default, and on-disk store default
(`echo.db.jsonl`) follow. Docs updated throughout. No behaviour change;
crate directories and the config schema are untouched.
The service pseudo-clients and the ircd protocol link sat flat at the
repo root, mixed in with the daemon core and the SDK. Move them all
under modules/ so the tree separates concerns cleanly: the daemon in
src/, the SDK every module links against in api/, and the loadable
modules — the pseudo-clients plus the protocol link — in modules/.
Workspace members, the daemon's per-crate dependency paths, and each
module's api path are updated to match; the docs follow. No code change.
