This is a list of all Internet Relay Chat commands from RFC 1459, RFC 2812, and extensions added to major IRC daemons. Most IRC clients require commands to be preceded by a slash ("/").

Example /attach /server: Sign on to a server /attach irc.libera.chat /server irc.libera.chat /nick: Set your nickname /nick your_nickname /join /j: Join a channel /join #wikipedia-en /j #wikipedia-en /msg: Sends a message (can either be private or to the entire channel) Message the channel: /msg #wikipedia-en Hello, World!
