Auto-mod

Auto-mod is a set of ready-made protections. Switch one on and Quark acts the moment it sees a match. Every protection is free on every plan. Auto-mod is on the dashboard under Moderation → Auto-mod, and in Discord with /setup → Auto-mod. A server that has never saved Auto-mod runs none of it: press Turn on recommended to start with the protections marked Most used.

Protections

Group	Protection	What it catches
Messages	Scam links	Links to fake Nitro, fake Steam and other account-stealing sites
	Same message in many channels	One message posted in several channels at once, as compromised accounts do
	Invite links	Invites to other Discord servers
	Message floods	Too many messages too quickly
	Repeated messages	The same message sent over and over
	Mass mentions	Too many people or roles mentioned in one message
	Blocked words	Swear words and slurs from Quark’s list, and any words you add, disguised spellings included
	Walls of text and emoji	Very long messages, or messages that are mostly emoji
	Shouting and odd characters	Messages mostly in capitals, or full of invisible or combining characters
Images and files	Known scam images	Images on Quark’s list of known scams, like fake giveaways and QR-code logins
	Your blocked images and files	Anything your moderators blocked with Apps → Block image or file
	Program files	Files that run a program when opened, like `.exe`, `.scr` and `.bat`
Joins	Join raids	Many members joining in a short time
	Brand-new accounts	Accounts made shortly before they join
	Blocked words in a name	Swear words and slurs in the name of someone joining or changing their nickname
Server safety	Mass deletes	Someone deleting many channels or roles in a short time

Press Edit on a protection to choose What Quark does: tell moderators, delete the message (or every copy), warn, time out, slow down or lock the main chat, give a Quarantine role, or reset a nickname, depending on the protection. A step that can’t run yet says why, for example “Choose a channel first”.

Shared settings

Tell moderators in: the channel for Auto-mod’s alerts.
Never act on: roles Auto-mod leaves alone.
Quarantine role: used by Brand-new accounts and Blocked words in a name.
Repeat offenders: someone caught several times in an hour is timed out, kicked or banned and warned.

Message and media protections can also skip chosen channels.

Fine-tuning

Each protection is made of automation rules. They are listed on the Automations page under From Auto-mod, locked. Press Copy to edit to make your own copy: it starts switched off, so nothing runs twice, and it counts towards your plan’s automations. The panel beside the protections shows the last 7 days of catches. People who can view logs also see the most recent catches, with a link to Cases.
