From Apibot
Apibot is a MediaWiki bot, written in PHP, and oriented towards bot operators with a basic PHP knowledge.
Abilities

- richness and fine-grainedness of the functions that no other bot even comes close to
- an iterator / actionobject framework on top of the bot basic functions
- support for compressed transfers
- support for HTTP over SSL (HTTPS) transfers
- support for HTTP authentication (in addition to the MediaWiki account authentication)
- page bot exclusion compliance
- stack-based reentrantness: push_bot_state() and pop_bot_state() functions
- a huge number of wiki / user information returning functions
- most functions will work with MW as old as 1.12, or even older (some through web-based backends)
