SOLUTION MENTIONED IN OTHER ISSUE:
To save the username/password you can use the path to your browser profile (check the README). You must provide username, password, and a target even if you're using a browser profile. You use a profile.json for this too, like this:
python3 ilcbot.py -pr myprofile.json --brprofile '/home/mycomputer/.config/google-chrome/Profile 1'
Here, I have specified my username, password, target in myprofile.json file and using a Chrome profile. Script will automatically detect if a login is required or not.
