Command Overview
Modulus supports both slash commands and mention-prefix commands.
Slash Commands
Slash commands are the guided format.
Use them when you want:
- Discord option pickers
- autocomplete
- less typing
- easier discovery for newer staff
Example:
/ban user:@User reason:"Raiding" delete_messages:1 dm:false
Mention Prefix Commands
Mention-prefix commands are the fast format.
Use them when you want:
- fast staff actions
- short flags
- quick copy-paste syntax
- proof attached directly to the command message
Format:
- Start with
@Modulus - Write the command name
- Put required targets first when that reads naturally
- Add optional flags after that
Example:
@Modulus ban @User -r "Raiding" -del 1 -dm false -p@Modulus mute @User -t 30m -r "Spam"@Modulus help ban
Common Prefix Flags
-rreason-tduration or time-idcase ID, warning ID, or user ID depending on the command-uuser-cchannel-mmode-delrecent message deletion window-dmwhether the user should be direct messaged-pproof attachment or proof URL
Proof
If a command supports proof, attach the image or file directly to the same prefix message. Modulus will use the first attachment automatically.
You can also pass a URL when needed.
Help
Use help when you are unsure about a command:
/help command:ban@Modulus help ban
Each help entry now shows:
- the clean slash format
- the clean mention-prefix format
- what each part means
- a ready-to-copy example
Read the full prefix breakdown in Prefix Command Guide.
Permissions
Moderation commands still require the matching Discord permission, and the bot role must stay above the roles it needs to manage.
