# Unmaintained bots
|
|
|
|
This directory contains bots that are currently not maintained by the Zulip
|
|
community. They are untested and potentially buggy or completely nonfunctional.
|
|
We only know that they worked at the time of their creation.
|
|
|
|
We see potential in every bot included in this directory. Many were moved simply
|
|
because they didn't contain automated tests. Feel free to use or revive
|
|
these bots.
|
|
|
|
## Reviving a bot
|
|
|
|
To revive an unmaintained bot, go through our [Writing bots](
|
|
https://chat.zulip.org/api/writing-bots) guide and check if
|
|
the bot meets the outlined criteria.
|
|
In particular, this means that the bot should:
|
|
* contain automated tests.
|
|
* be well-documented, with usage examples.
|
|
* provide a command set reasonably easy and convenient to use for a human.
|
|
|
|
Once a bot fulfills all the criteria, feel free to submit a pull request to add it
|
|
to the `bots` directory. We are happy to include it there.
