AutoMod

Unified Automated Moderation

Overview

AutoMod is a single unified module that covers seven independent moderation rules: alt account prevention, protected-role anti-tagging, anti-spam, anti-link, anti-caps, word filter, and invite filter. Each rule is independently enabled and configurable — enable only what your server needs. Rules run in sequence on every message and the first rule that triggers short-circuits the rest, preventing multiple actions on the same message.

Setup

  1. Run /settings automod in your server.
  2. Select Global to configure the log channel and any server-wide exempt roles or channels.
  3. Navigate to each rule you want to enable, toggle it on, and configure its specific settings.
  4. Each rule has an independent Action (warn, delete, mute, kick, or ban) so you can apply proportional responses.
  5. Save your changes. The configuration takes effect immediately.

The same settings are available on the dashboard under Settings → AutoMod, with a tab for each rule.

Usage

Once configured, AutoMod runs automatically:

  • Alt Prevention fires when a new member joins whose account is newer than the configured minimum age. The member receives a DM before they are kicked or banned.
  • Anti-Tagging detects messages that mention any of your configured protected roles — including roles that are not mentionable in Discord (the bot reads raw message content directly). The first matching message fires the configured action.
  • Anti-Spam, Anti-Link, Anti-Caps, Word Filter, Invite Filter evaluate every non-bot message in real time. The first matching rule fires its configured action and no further rules run on that message.
  • Members with exempt roles and messages in exempt channels bypass all rules globally.
