To get the help on Freenode, and with irssi, you could use: @/query ChanServ HELP FLAGS@

It will switch to the ChanServ window and show the help.

At the time of writing this gives:

***** ChanServ Help *****

Help for FLAGS:

The FLAGS command allows for the granting/removal of channel

privileges on a more specific, non-generalized level. It

supports nicknames, groups and hostmasks as targets.

When only the channel argument is given, a listing of

permissions granted to users will be displayed.

Syntax: FLAGS <#channel>

Otherwise, an access entry is modified. A modification may be

specified by a template name (changes the access to the

template) or a flags change (starts with + or -). See the

TEMPLATE help entry for more information about templates.

If you are not a founder, you may only manipulate flags you

have yourself, and may not edit users that have flags you

don't have. For this purpose, +v grants the ability to grant

+V, +o grants the ability to grant +O, and +r grants the

ability to grant +b.

As of Atheme 7.0, there are now extended entity targets

which allow you to match chanacs against a situation instead

of against a nickname, hostmask or group.

Available exttargets are:

$chanacs:#channel - Any user with channel access in the given channel

                      (including hostmasks).

If you do not have +f you may still remove your own access

with -*.

Syntax: FLAGS <#channel> [nickname|hostmask|group template]

Syntax: FLAGS <#channel> [nickname|hostmask|group flag_changes]

Permissions:

    +v - Enables use of the voice/devoice commands.

    +V - Enables automatic voice.

    +o - Enables use of the op/deop commands.

    +O - Enables automatic op.

    +s - Enables use of the set command.

    +i - Enables use of the invite and getkey commands.

    +r - Enables use of the unban command.

    +R - Enables use of the recover, sync and clear commands.

    +f - Enables modification of channel access lists.

    +t - Enables use of the topic and topicappend commands.

    +A - Enables viewing of channel access lists.

    +S - Marks the user as a successor.

    +F - Grants full founder access.

    +b - Enables automatic kickban.

    +e - Exempts from +b and enables unbanning self.

The special permission +* adds all permissions except +b, +S, and +F.

The special permission -* removes all permissions including +b and +F.

Examples:

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com VOP

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com -V+oO

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com -*

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo +oOtsi

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo TroubleUser!*@*.troubleisp.net +b

    /msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo !baz +*
