Show HN: A Werewolf bot for Slack

As I don't use Slack, I'm totally building an IRC version of this. Actually, I'd prefer frontend-agnostic, so I can hook the logic to IRC/matrix/XMPP/websockets.

If you're a rubyist check out Lita[1] which is a ruby bot framework that has many adapters[2] to work with various chat services like IRC, slack, etc...

I'm down to build this into this project. Build an IRC client in ReactPHP (async websocket pkg) and we'll work towards the necessary abstraction to make the game logic completely secular.

You might want to look up existing IRC bots for reference (like XylBot [1]). I'm not sure how usable the code is, but it could be useful for role ideas.

I've actually been looking at scheme. I need the practice, and it has enough frontends to make it work. Also, there is CHICKEN's C FFI, which is amazing.

But ruby might be good, too.
