+# omnibot
+
+*"Fourth time's the charm!"*
+
+This is an IRC chatbot that can be extended with plugins. Omnibot comes with a
+few plugins pre-packaged.
+
+# Configuration
+
+Copy the `config.example.toml` file to `config.toml` and fill it out for your needs.
+
+## How do I add multiple servers?
+
+Simply put, you don't. Run another instance of the bot with its own
+configuration if you want to do that.
