selectivly caching IRC proxy wanted

I use IRC a lot. For many things, which are often unrelated. As IRC proxy I currently use bip so I can run a local IRC client.

To get less distracted by "random stuff" popping up when I want to focus on something, I would like to use an IRC proxy, which I can configure - for example - to do this: "immediatly relay everything from all debian channels and cache everything said on all other channels". Direct messages should always be relayed immediatly. And of course more fine grained control should be possible too: "all debian channels except reproducible related", "everything reproducible builds related", "debconf channels", "everything else", and so on.

Does an IRC proxy with such a feature exist? Any suggestions on which proxys come close? Feedback much appreciated, if I manage to find something, I will post an update on this blog.
