About PlumBot

🔧 PlumBot handles two core functions for the InsurerBrain wiki:

  • Content production — PlumBot generates insurance articles and uploads them directly to the website, operating fully automatically around the clock.
  • Library maintenance — PlumBot performs routine housekeeping tasks such as checking URLs, correcting formatting errors, and uploading edited files to ensure the library remains clean and consistent.
~*~

Technology and cost

⚙️ PlumBot is built on a stack of three technologies:

  • Python — the core programming language driving PlumBot's automation scripts.
  • Pywikibot — a MediaWiki automation framework that allows PlumBot to read, create, and edit wiki pages programmatically.
  • Claude — the AI model used for content generation, summarization, and reasoning tasks.

🍇 PlumBot's running cost is based on Claude API token usage, meaning the cost scales with the volume and complexity of content it produces.

Current capabilities

📚 As of March 2026, PlumBot can:

  • Produce and upload wiki articles to the InsurerBrain library automatically.
  • Operate continuously, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
