The Moderation preset limits it to the roles you mark as moderators. Server owners and Administrators can always run it. How Command Access works.

What the bot needs

Sentinel is granted these permissions by the invite link. A command that finds one missing replies privately with what it could not do and changes nothing.

Comportamento

Checked against the code 2026-09-21

Gives a member the server's quarantine role and opens a case. Discord shows the command only to members with Timeout Members by default. The bot checks Command Access rules, that the Moderation service is enabled ("Sentinel is not enabled for this server."), and that the moderator is an Administrator or holds a moderator role from the Settings page ("No permission."). It refuses to act on the server owner, on bots, and on anyone whose highest role is at or above the moderator's own ("Cannot action that member.").

A quarantine role must be set. Without one the reply is "No quarantine role is configured. Run the setup wizard or set one in Settings first." If the configured role has since been deleted: "The quarantine role is missing or was deleted. Re-run setup to recreate it." The setup wizard creates a "Quarantined" role that denies sending messages, reacting and using threads in every text channel.

The role is added before anything is recorded; if Discord refuses, the moderator is told and no case is opened. On success the member is marked quarantined, a quarantine case is opened, the member gets a DM reading "You have been quarantined in Server: reason" (this DM has no switch), and a "Quarantine" card goes to the moderation log channel. The reply is "@member quarantined. Case #12".

Good to know

  • A quarantined member shows a quarantine flag in /history and on the dashboard Users page, and their risk score is raised while it lasts.
  • Release with /unquarantine or from the dashboard.
  • Auto-quarantine at the critical risk band and raid hard mode use the same role.
  • While an anti-nuke panic lockdown is on, only the server owner and the anti-nuke exempt users and roles can run it.
