For some networks AUTH is a command, e.g. QuakeNet: https://www.quakenet.org/help/q-commands/auth

To auth through Freenode you need to message NickServ, which can be done through the other command listed in the README: ["PRIVMSG", "NickServ", "IDENTIFY password"]. This would be the eqvuivalent of writing /msg NickServ IDENTIFY password in your IRC client.

For a full list of regular IRC commands, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_Relay_Chat_commands

I'm not sure what you mean with

Also can you add some documentation on what thoes messages are for ?

Are you talking about the error message from Freenode or the ["AUTH", "test", "password"] command?
