User guide
What AegisGrid can do and how to set it up, in plain words. New here? Start with Getting started. Looking for something? Type in the search box. Quick answers are on the FAQ.
Pick a member guide channel or a staff guide channel on the Guide channels page first.
🚀 Getting started
Add AegisGrid to your server
Press Add AegisGrid to Discord and pick your server. You need to be the owner or have Manage Server. Keep the permissions it asks for; it needs them to moderate, give roles and post.
Open the dashboard
Go to aegisgrid.io/dashboard, log in with Discord and choose your server. Everything is set up there, so there's nothing to type in Discord.
Use the Setup Wizard or Easy Build
The Setup Wizard goes through the main features one question at a time. Easy Build can create a whole server from a template, with channels, roles and settings. It only adds things and never deletes what you already have.
Move AegisGrid's role up
In Discord, open Server Settings → Roles and drag the AegisGrid role above the roles it should give out or moderate. Discord only lets a bot manage roles below its own.
Check your channel permissions
Open Moderation & safety → Channel permissions on the dashboard. It points out anything that looks wrong, like staff channels anyone can read or channels AegisGrid should post in but can't, and fixes most of them in one click.
🧭 Using the dashboard
- The menu on the left has a few pinned pages (Overview, Features, Setup Wizard, Easy Build) and six groups that fold open: Moderation & safety, Members, Community, Tools, Alerts & feeds, and Server & plan. On a phone, tap ☰ Menu.
- Finding a page: type in the box at the top of the menu, or press / anywhere, then Enter to jump to the first match.
- Overview shows how far setup has got and what to do next, your permission health, how many features are on, and recent moderation.
- Staff inbox lists everything waiting on staff: reported messages, ban appeals, form answers and open tickets, oldest first, each with a link straight to it. Staff can see the same list in Discord with
/inbox. - Features is where whole features are switched on or off. A switched-off feature's commands tell members it's off, and its settings are kept for later.
- Saving: settings pages have a Save changes button at the bottom. If you change something and scroll away, a bar appears with Save and Undo, and your browser warns you before you leave with unsaved changes.
- Letting staff help: on Dashboard access, give a role or a person access to just the pages they need (Tickets and the Staff inbox, say) without giving them Manage Server in Discord.
- Pages marked 🔰 need Shield and pages marked 💎 need Grid; pages marked off belong to a feature that's switched off.
💬 Using AegisGrid in Discord
- Type
/in any channel to see AegisGrid's commands./helplists them with short explanations. /panelopens the admin panel inside Discord: buttons for common jobs, and a member card where staff can see someone's details, take action and, if they have a note role, read and add staff notes./inboxshows staff what's waiting on them, and/tempbanslists temporary bans with buttons to end one early or change its length.- Many replies are private ("Only you can see this"), so staff tools never show up in public.
- Right-click a message → Apps for extras like "Report message", "Remind me about this" and "Save message".
- New slash commands can take up to an hour to appear after AegisGrid is updated. Restarting the Discord app usually shows them sooner.
🛡️ Trust Score and safety
AegisGrid remembers troublemakers across every server that uses it, so a ban in one server shows up as a warning in the next.
- Trust Score: every member has one score shared across AegisGrid servers. Kicks, bans, timeouts and complaints lower it; being a good member (reacting, spending time in voice, getting kudos from admins) raises it. Only the last six months count, so people can recover.
- Temporary bans (
/banwith a length, like3dor1w) cost less than a permanent ban (−250), depending on the length: up to 1 day −15, up to 3 days −20, up to 1 week −25, up to 2 weeks −50, up to 30 days −100, up to 90 days −150, longer −200. AegisGrid lifts the ban when the time is up. Staff can end one early or change its length with/tempbansor on Logs & mod roles. - Ban appeals: when a server uses them, the ban DM includes a link to a short form on aegisgrid.io. If staff accept the appeal, you're unbanned and that ban stops counting against your Trust Score.
- Global blacklist: someone whose score falls far enough is flagged everywhere. No single server can put someone there: it takes reports from at least two servers. On Blacklist & trust, each server chooses whether blacklisted people are only flagged to staff or banned, and can pardon someone for their own server.
- Permission change alerts and the weekly check-up: AegisGrid warns your staff when a permission changes in a risky way (a staff channel opening to @everyone, say), with an Undo button, and sends the owner a short summary every week.
- Server reputation: servers have a score too, and AegisGrid watches for moderators who misuse their powers. Servers appear on the public rankings unless they choose to hide. These safety features are always on, so the scores stay fair.
🧩 Features
All 70 features, grouped like the dashboard menu. Free works in every server; Shield and Grid need a plan. Each one can be switched on or off on the Features page.
Moderation & safety
Moderation commands/mod kick, /mod ban, /mod unban, /mod timeout, /mod untimeout, /mod warn, /mod cases, /mod purge, /mod tempbansFree
- Staff use
/kick,/ban,/timeout,/warnand/purge. Every action is saved as a case;/cases @membershows someone's history. - Add a length to
/ban(like12h,3d,1wor30d) for a temporary ban. AegisGrid lifts it when the time is up, and it costs less Trust Score than a permanent ban (1 week = −25)./tempbansand the Logs & mod roles page list running temporary bans, with buttons to end one early or change its length. - Pick a mod-log channel and your moderator roles on Logs & mod roles. AegisGrid posts every action there.
- Kicks, bans and timeouts also count toward the person's Trust Score (see Trust Score), so only use them for real rule-breaking.
Voice logsLogs who disconnected or moved people in voice chatFree
- Pick a voice-log channel on Logs & mod roles. When someone is disconnected or moved in voice, AegisGrid posts who did it.
AutoMod & join protectionSpam, invite, link, caps and word filters; account-age gate; raid alertsFree
- Switch on the filters you want on the AutoMod page: spam, invite links, other links, CAPS, mass mentions and your own banned words.
- Choose what happens: delete the message, warn, or time the person out. Staff roles can be left out of the filters.
- Join protection can hold back brand-new accounts and warns staff when lots of people join at once (a raid).
- Not sure a filter or banned word is a good idea? Press Test these settings at the bottom of the AutoMod page to see which of the last few hundred messages it would have caught, before you save anything.
Message logsEdited and deleted messages posted to a log channelShield
- Pick a channel on Logs to see messages that were edited or deleted, with what they said before.
Full logging suiteJoins, leaves, role, nickname, channel and role changes; searchable log historyGrid
- Grid logs joins, leaves, role changes, nickname changes, channel and server changes, each to its own channel if you like, with a searchable history on the Logs page.
Anti-nuke & backupsStops mass deletions and bans by a hacked or rogue admin; daily server backups and restoreGrid
- If an admin account starts deleting channels or banning lots of people (a hacked or rogue admin), AegisGrid stops them. Daily backups let you restore channels and roles.
Warning escalationAutomatic timeout, kick or ban after a number of warnings in a set timeFree
- Add rules below, like 3 warnings in 30 days → time out for 60 minutes and 5 warnings in 30 days → kick.
- After each warning AegisGrid counts that member's warnings in the time you set and uses the biggest rule they have reached.
- The action is logged in your mod log and recorded as a case by AegisGrid. Members can't be punished above AegisGrid's own role.
Info & staff notesIn-depth /info server and /info user for roles you pick, and private staff notes on membersFree
- People with a role in Full server info get the in-depth
/serverinfo: language, people and bots, boosts, every kind of channel, verification level, AFK settings, the explicit content filter, roles, owner and server ID. - People with a role in Full user info get the in-depth
/userinfo: account and join dates, roles, key permissions, boosting, timeout, Trust Score and moderation cases here. It is always a private reply. - Staff with a note role also see the notes on that member, with Add note and All notes buttons. They can also use
/noteor the member card in the/paneladmin panel. Nobody else ever sees notes. - Without one of these roles,
/serverinfoand/userinfowork as before (part of Fun & utility).
Report messageMembers right-click a message to report it; staff delete, time out, warn or dismiss with one buttonFree
- Pick a private staff channel below. Reporting is off until you do.
- A member right-clicks a message (on phone: press and hold) → Apps → Report message, and writes why.
- Your staff get the message, a link to it and the reason, with a Time out for… menu (10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day or 1 week) and buttons to Delete message, Warn or Dismiss. Timeouts and warnings are saved as cases like any other.
- Each member can send up to 10 reports an hour, and only one per message.
Ban appealsBanned members can ask to be unbanned on a web form; staff unban or deny with one buttonFree
- Pick the channel where appeals are posted. Appeals stay closed until you do.
- AegisGrid adds the appeal link to the DM it sends when someone is banned with
/ban. You can also share the link below yourself. - The person logs in with Discord (so you know it's really them) and answers your questions. Only people who are banned here can appeal.
- Staff press Unban or Deny on the post and can add a reason. An accepted appeal unbans them and takes back the Trust Score points that ban cost them in this server.
Staff inboxReports, ban appeals, form answers and open tickets in one list, oldest first; /inbox in DiscordFree
- This page and
/inboxlist reported messages, ban appeals, form answers and open tickets that nobody has dealt with yet. - Each line has a link that jumps straight to it in Discord, and one to the page where it can be handled.
- People with Manage Messages can use
/inbox, plus your moderator roles and any roles you pick below.
Weekly check-upA short weekly note for the owner: what is waiting, new permission problems, low Trust Score joins, missing permissionsFree
- Every week AegisGrid sends the server owner a DM, or posts in the channel you pick below.
- It lists reports and appeals still waiting, new critical permission problems, people who joined with a low Trust Score, risky permission changes, and anything AegisGrid lost permission to do.
- Use Send it now to see what it looks like. If the owner has DMs from server members turned off and no channel is picked, nothing arrives.
Permission change alertsWarns staff when a risky permission change happens (like a staff channel opening to everyone), with one-click UndoFree
- AegisGrid takes a snapshot of your channel and role permissions every day, and also watches for changes as they happen.
- When something risky changes, it posts in your alert channel: what changed, who changed it, and an Undo button. For example: #mod-chat became visible to @everyone, changed by Alex.
- Risky means: a hidden channel opening to @everyone, @everyone getting staff powers, or a role getting Administrator, Manage Server, Manage Roles or Manage Webhooks.
- Undo needs Manage Roles (or Administrator). Changes AegisGrid makes itself, like the fixes on Channel permissions, are not reported.
Members
Welcome & goodbyeWelcome messages and images, welcome DMs, goodbye messagesFree
- On the Welcome page, pick a channel and write your message. Use
{user},{server}and{count}to fill in the name, server and member number. - Turn on the welcome image card, a private welcome DM, and a goodbye message if you like.
OnboardingAuto roles, Verify button and self-assign role menuFree
- Auto roles are given to everyone who joins.
- The Verify button gives a role when pressed. Hide your chat channels from @everyone and show them to the Verify role, so new accounts must press it first (Channel permissions can check this for you).
- A role menu lets members pick their own roles (games, pronouns, pings).
Reaction rolesReact with an emoji, or pick from a dropdown, to get a roleFree
- Post a message, then on Reaction roles link emojis (or a dropdown) to roles. Members react or pick to get the role, and remove it the same way.

- Pick a category and your staff roles below. Modmail is off until a category is picked.
- A member DMs AegisGrid. If they share more than one server that uses modmail, they pick which one. A private channel opens for your staff.
- Staff reply in that channel and AegisGrid passes it on. Start a message with
//to keep it between staff. Press Close when you're done. - AegisGrid doesn't keep copies of the messages. They only exist in the DM and in your channel.
BirthdaysMembers save their birthday; AegisGrid posts a message and gives a birthday role for the dayFree
- Members save their birthday with /me birthday set (day and month only). On the day, AegisGrid wishes them a happy birthday.
Captcha verificationA picture code on the Verify button, so raid bots can't verify themselvesFree
- Set up the Verify button on the Onboarding page first, then switch this module on.
- When someone presses Verify, AegisGrid privately shows them a picture with a short code and a button to type it in.
- Right code: they get the verified role. Three wrong tries and they have to press Verify again for a new picture.
Server suggestionsMembers post ideas with /suggest, others vote, staff approve or reject themFree

- A member types
/suggestand their idea. AegisGrid posts it with 👍 and 👎 buttons (one vote each, and they can change it). - Staff press Approve or Reject on the post and can add a reason. The idea's author gets a DM. These ideas are for your server; ideas for AegisGrid itself go to aegisgrid.io/suggest.
Temporary rolesRoles that remove themselves after a set timeShield
- Give someone a role for a while, like "Event winner" for a week or "Muted in voice" for an hour. AegisGrid takes it off when the time is up.
Invite trackingWho invited whom, invite counts and how many stayed; optionally shown with the Trust ScoreGrid
- AegisGrid needs the Manage Server permission to read your invite links. Discord gives no other way to tell which link someone used.
- When someone joins, AegisGrid works out which invite they used. Vanity links and joins from server discovery are shown as "unknown".
- Members can see their own numbers with
/invites. Staff can look anyone up.
Bots roleA "Bots" role for Discord apps only: every bot gets it, so bots are listed and counted apart from people. If anyone gives it to a person, AegisGrid takes it off again.Free
Applications & formsStaff applications and other forms with up to 10 questions; review with Accept / Deny, and give a roleShield
- Make a form below: a name, up to 10 questions, and the channel where answers go for review. Discord shows 5 questions at a time, so forms with more get a Next button after the first 5.
- Post a panel with an Apply button in any channel, or let members use
/apply. - Answers appear in your review channel with Accept and Deny. Accepting can give a role. The member gets a DM either way.
- Up to 10 forms. Each member can send one answer per form at a time, and must wait the time you set before sending again.
MILSIM toolsRank ladder with rank roles, /milsim promote and /milsim demote, service records, units and an ORBAT, operations with attendance, and leave of absenceFree
- Set up your ranks below. You start with a simple 10-rank ladder (Recruit to Commander); rename, add or remove ranks, then press Create missing roles. Each rank belongs to a group (Enlisted, NCO or Officer), and each group can have its own role, so you can open channels to "NCOs and up".
- Promote and demote with
/promoteand/demote. AegisGrid swaps the rank roles, can put the rank tag in the nickname ([SGT] Name), posts it in your promotions channel and adds it to the service record. Promoting someone without a rank enlists them at the first rank. - Authority follows rank: pick the lowest rank that can promote, and how many ranks below their own they can promote to. Nobody can promote or demote their equals or superiors. The command roles you pick, and server admins, can always promote.
- Plan operations with
/op schedule. Members answer Attending, Tentative or Absent, and get a reminder. After the op, staff take attendance; members on approved leave are marked excused. - Members ask for leave with
/loa request. Staff approve or deny it in your personnel channel; AegisGrid gives the On Leave role while it lasts and takes it off when it ends. - With Shield you also get qualifications and awards, time-in-grade and operation requirements for each rank with a "ready for promotion" list, and attendance and inactivity reports.

Adds the advanced economy (crime, rob, casino, lottery, your own jobs), applications and forms with up to 10 questions, stream, video, RSS, Bluesky and Reddit alerts, more ticket types with claiming, message logs, your own bot nickname and picture, and extras like sticky messages and temporary roles.
Grid
$4.99/monthor $49.99/year
Everything in Shield, plus anti-nuke and backups, full logging, custom commands and auto-replies, scheduled messages, analytics and invite tracking.
- One plan, 5 servers: a plan belongs to the person who pays and covers up to 5 servers they own or manage. Add or swap servers on My plan. More servers are $0.99/month each.
- Buying on the website: on any server's Plans & bot nickname page, pick monthly or yearly. Stripe handles the payment, so AegisGrid never sees your card.
- Buying in Discord: monthly plans are also sold inside Discord at the same price (look for the Buy button on a paid-feature message, or AegisGrid's store page). Then add your servers on My plan. Discord plans are changed or cancelled in Discord under User Settings → Subscriptions.
- Cancelling: website plans are cancelled under Manage billing on My plan. The plan keeps working until the end of the time you paid for, and your settings are kept if you come back.
🌐 Languages
- The website, this guide and AegisGrid's everyday replies come in English, Chinese (Simplified), Hindi, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Russian. Some older, detailed settings pages are still in English.
- Each member gets replies in the language of their Discord app. Change your own with
/language, or with the 🌐 menu at the top of the website. - Admins set the server's own language on the dashboard. It's used for posts everyone sees, like welcome messages and panels.
🔐 Privacy and your data
- AegisGrid never asks for your email or password; you log in with Discord.
- Personal text, like moderation reasons, staff notes, form answers and ticket transcripts, is encrypted.
- On My data you can download everything AegisGrid keeps about you, or delete it. A few things are kept for safety (like moderation cases and the Trust Score), and the page tells you which and why.
- When AegisGrid leaves a server, that server's data is deleted after 30 days. The details are in the Privacy Policy and Terms.
🧯 Troubleshooting
AegisGrid doesn't post in a channel, or a feature quietly does nothing
AegisGrid probably can't see or post in that channel. Open Channel permissions on the dashboard; it flags channels AegisGrid should use but can't, with a one-click fix. The Overview page and the weekly check-up also warn you about missing permissions.
AegisGrid can't give a role, or says its role is too low
In Server Settings → Roles, drag the AegisGrid role above the roles it should give. Discord only lets bots manage roles below their own highest role.
A command says the feature is switched off
An admin turned that feature off. It can be switched back on on the dashboard's Features page.
A command says it needs Shield or Grid
That feature is part of a paid plan. See Plans, or press the Buy button on the message to subscribe in Discord.
My server isn't listed on the dashboard
You need to be the owner or have Manage Server or Administrator. If you only just got that permission, log out of the website and back in so Discord sends the new list. Staff given access on Dashboard access only see their pages.
I bought a plan but my server is still on Free
Open My plan and add the server. Website purchases add the server you bought from automatically; with Discord purchases you add servers yourself. Payments usually show up within a few seconds, so try refreshing.
New commands don't show up in Discord
After an update, Discord can take up to an hour to show new commands. Fully closing and reopening the Discord app often helps.
Someone was flagged by the blacklist but we trust them
On Blacklist & trust, pardon them for your server. That only affects your server; their global score stays as it is.
Still stuck?
Ask in the official AegisGrid Discord server, or send an idea on Suggest a feature.
More quick answers are on the FAQ.
⌨️ All commands
45 slash commands, plus right-click options. staff means Discord only shows it to people with the right permission by default (server admins can change that in Server Settings → Integrations).
