Add per-admin permanent non-anonymous mode with one-time per-thread reminder by Copilot · Pull Request #12 · r-hensley/DMModbot

Copilot · 2026-05-13T21:17:30Z

This adds a server-admin slash command to opt into permanent non-anonymous replies across all report threads. It also adds per-thread reminder tracking so opted-in admins are notified once (on first message in that thread) that their identity is always disclosed.

Command surface
- Added /permanent_non_anonymous enabled:<bool> in cogs/admin.py.
- Stores per-guild opted-in admin IDs in guilds[guild_id]["permanent_non_anonymous_mods"].
Report-thread state
- Extended report session records with permanent_non_anonymous_notified_mods in cogs/utils/helper_functions.py.
- Tracks which opted-in admins have already received the reminder in a given thread.
Message relay behavior
- Updated moderator→user relay logic in cogs/modbot.py:
  - If moderator is permanently opted in, DM relay always uses identified mode ({mention}:) regardless of thread-local anonymous default.
  - Sends one reminder reply in-thread on that moderator’s first message per thread.
  - Uses thread_info["guild_id"] for guild config lookup to avoid thread object coupling.
Operator-facing instructions
- Updated admin instructions text to include the new slash command.

# cogs/modbot.py (relay decision)
is_permanent = msg.author.id in guild_config.get("permanent_non_anonymous_mods", [])
if is_permanent and msg.author.id not in thread_info.setdefault("permanent_non_anonymous_notified_mods", []):
    thread_info["permanent_non_anonymous_notified_mods"].append(msg.author.id)
    await msg.reply("Reminder: ... your identity is shown in this and all other report threads.")

cont = f" {msg.author.mention}: " if (thread_info.get("not_anonymous") or is_permanent) \
       else f">>> **Moderator {thread_info['mods'].index(msg.author.id) + 1}**: "

@copilot in a notification message for thread add a line below on a new line starting with "-#" reminding admins basically the name of the slash command

Like to toggle this setting, use ...

Implemented in 2eb54b4.

The reminder now includes a second line starting with -# that tells admins how to toggle it:
-# To toggle this setting, use /permanent_non_anonymous.
