+this is a simple [maubot](https://github.com/maubot/maubot) plugin which interacts with a [matrix-registration](https://github.com/zeratax/matrix-registration) deployment and generates invite tokens.
 
-NOTICE: this bot depends on Maubot engine and matrix-registration. it does not work with synapse's native registration
-tokens. reasons you may still prefer this project:
-
-1. you already have set up maubot
-2. you already have set up matrix-registration
-3. this bot only requires administrative access to matrix-registration, whereas the ability to generate synapse
-   registration tokens would require the bot to be a server administrator
-
-if you would prefer to use native synapse registration tokens, please check out
-[matrix-registration-bot](https://github.com/moan0s/matrix-registration-bot/), an unrelated but similar project which is
-a standalone bot (no maubot engine).

-## usage
-
-modify the config to point to your matrix-registration url, include your admin secret to authenticate, and ensure that
-you're in the list of approved users.
