Moderation

Counting what happens in a room, before anybody is punished for it

Two ladders that count, one rung that speaks, and enforcement that is built and deliberately not armed.

The question

automatic moderation for a chat group that has got too big

Partly, and the part that is missing is the part most people mean. Two ladders count violations per bot, per member and per chat over a rolling window. One rung speaks: a warning in her own voice. Muting and removing are built, reversible, and shipped locked.

Who this is for

Somebody whose room has got big enough to need rules, and who would rather see the counting before anything acts on it.

How it works

Built, and not armed, and the difference is not a setting

This is the page where the honest answer is the least convenient one, so it is the first thing on it.

Every sanction today is recorded as observed and nothing happens to anybody. The arming form is not rendered, the write path refuses regardless because the flag is a build constant rather than a setting, and a schema check makes a row claiming enforcement unrepresentable. Turning it on is a switch plus proof against a real group, and it has never been proven against one.

What it will not do

It will not act on your members today, and it will not pretend otherwise to win the comparison. Enforcement never applies to owners, admins or moderators, and an owner is never touched whatever is configured.

Which door

What this needs, and what state it is in

Read from the same table the ways-in page renders, so it cannot be current there and stale here.

The doors this touches

Over a chat network built

What runs today: the chat core embedded in-process, with no daemon and no exposed port, one directory as the only SDK importer, and one core hosting every enabled bot with commands serialized and events routed per profile

Over a web server, as an ordinary web assistantstarted

More than nothing, honestly: a demo route drives the real interaction engine, consent logic and persistence over the fake adapter, with a deterministic rules layer, a 25 message budget and synthetic data. The admin console and the public archive are web surfaces rather than chat ways in

The web door is the one most readers of this page assume they are buying, and it is not finished. The door that is built is a chat network you would have to adopt. That is the honest answer, and it will cost us some readers.

Every way in, and its state

Where to go next

The pages that carry the checks

This page makes no claim of its own. Each one below is where the thing is written down with the way to verify it.

What to read

The moderation page carries both ladders, the three things holding enforcement locked and the evidence holds; the roadmap carries what unlocking it needs.
