Server Moderation

TomoriBot gives server admins controls over how she behaves in your server (who can use her, where, and how much she costs) through the /config panel and its related commands. Most require the Manage Server permission. This page covers the highlights; every command is in the Command Reference.

Cost Control: Quotas

Generation costs money (yours or your members’). Quotas cap usage per user and server-wide:

/moderation → Quotas: configure daily per-user limits and resetting server-wide pools for text, image, and video generation.
/quota reset: manually reset a user or server pool.

Set a per-user limit to 0 for unlimited. Server-wide pools reset on a configurable day interval.

User BYOK (Bring Your Own Key)

/moderation Member Access carries this as a two-state choice. Allow Server Models is the default; Require Personal Providers makes each member bring their own personal provider for their triggers, so the server pays for nothing on user-initiated messages. Server-initiated triggers still use the server provider. This is the strongest cost control: it shifts API spend entirely to members. Members set theirs up under Personalization → Your Own Providers.

You can also bootstrap a server without a server-side text provider by choosing User BYOK during /setup. It is offered in servers rather than in DMs, and it asks for confirmation before completing the provider step, because the workspace then has no provider to fall back to.

Access Control: Whitelists

/moderation → Whitelist → Channels: choose triggering channels and optional cooldown overrides.
/moderation → Whitelist → Personas: limit which channels a specific persona can trigger in.
/moderation → Whitelist → Roles: restrict triggering to specific roles.
/config > Engine > Trigger: set the global cooldown between responses.

Whitelisted channels inherit the global cooldown unless you set a channel-specific override.

Learning & Privacy Controls

/server memberpermissions: control who can teach her things.
/moderation > User Blacklist: make her ignore specific members completely. They cannot trigger her or use her interaction commands, and their messages never reach her context.
/config > Channels > Channel Rules: mark channels where short-term memory is isolated and thought logs are suppressed.

Transparency: Thought Logs

/server thought-logs sets a channel where her internal reasoning and successful tool calls are posted, useful for auditing what she’s doing (including which trigger exposed a tool in Deliberate Tool Mode).

Welcome Greetings

/config > Channels > Logs & Welcome configures an automated greeting for new members in a chosen channel. By default, Tomori waits one minute before greeting them so server onboarding can finish. Use the Clear Welcome button on that same page to stop greetings.

Expressions

/expressions initialize registers your server’s custom emojis and stickers so she uses them accurately (recommended right after setup). For what she does with them (natural :emoji: use, stickers, reactions), see Expressions & Reactions.
