Description

Thanks for this, it's awesome!

Since first viewing, https://archive.matrix.org/r/hledger:matrix.org/date/2023/06/08 and chat clients show the archive bot repeatedly joining and being kicked by appservice. I assume it's because this room is plumbed to a Libera IRC channel ? What is the proper fix for this ?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Matrix archive for the hledger room and reproducing the repeated archive-bot joins and kicks in a client. Investigate the room's Libera IRC bridge and appservice interaction; done means the bot no longer repeatedly joins and is kicked, with the appropriate fix confirmed in the bridged room.
