Whenever an output from CF causes your mudclient to trigger a command that sends an input to CF, that is botting. Hotkeys and Macros are just shortcuts that you can define to do certain things, there is still human intervention necessary to make that happen. With triggers (unless it is a trigger to highlight something or echo something to the user for easier detection) there is no human interaction, it is the mud clients predefined rules that are playing the character.

That is cheating.
