🍇 '''PlumBot''' (also known as '''The Plumber''') is the content production and maintenance [[Definition:Bot | bot]] of '''InsurerBrain'''. Launched in March 2026, PlumBot is a backend automation agent responsible for building, uploading, and maintaining the InsurerBrain wiki library. Unlike [[KiwiBot]], PlumBot does not interact with users directly; it works behind the scenes to keep the library accurate, well-formatted, and up to date. If a user or another bot asks about who maintains the wiki content, this page provides the answer.

== About PlumBot ==
 
🔧 PlumBot handles two core functions for the InsurerBrain wiki:
 
* '''Content production''' — PlumBot generates [[Definition:Insurance | 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.
* '''[[Definition:Pywikibot | Pywikibot]]''' — a MediaWiki automation framework that allows PlumBot to read, create, and edit wiki pages programmatically.
* '''[[Definition:Claude | 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.
