AutoMod
Protect your Discord server against raids, spam, and malicious takeovers (nukes). Configure AutoMod filters and trap channels directly via the /automod command.
Command | Parameters | Description | Required Permission |
|---|---|---|---|
| none | Opens the control panel for all protection modules: anti-spam, mention spam (from 5 mentions), keyword filter, Nexus Shield (anti-nuke) and the honeypot channel. Everything can be enabled and configured with buttons. | Administrator |
Required Bot Permissions
For Nexus to step in on its own and prevent damage during an attack, the bot's role needs the following Discord permissions:
Manage Server: Creates the AutoMod rules in Discord and immediately pauses all server invites for 24 hours during an attack.
Manage Roles: Strips all roles from attackers within seconds and restores deleted roles.
Manage Channels: Restores deleted channels and creates the honeypot channel.
Ban Members: Bans bots that trigger a nuke and lifts bans that were issued during an attack.
Kick Members: Removes bots that post in the honeypot channel.
Moderate Members (Timeout): Puts attackers, and whoever invited a nuking bot, in quarantine for 28 days. Members who post in the honeypot receive a timeout.
Manage Messages: Deletes messages in the honeypot channel.
Read & Send Messages: Monitors the honeypot channel and posts security events to the log channel.
Recommendation: Give Nexus the Administrator permission. Without it, Shield still detects and stops attacks, but it can only partially restore deleted roles and channels that use permissions Nexus doesn't have itself.
