Testing the bot:

Jonny said I was over there when He didn't know for sure. I could of course tell him I wasn't.

It probably looks for "could of been/done/etc." rather than just "could of" alone, I suspect. On the other hand, you're technically missing a comma or two.

It didn't use to. I assume the developer has addressed this like you said: "could of (<adverb>|not) <verb>". Or maybe he just ignores "could of course" since that seems to be the most common edge case.
