An open-source Discord moderation bot for open-source communities. Protect your contributors and maintainers with slash commands, automatic escalation, member verification, and per-server configuration.
Community-controlled moderation tools for safe, welcoming open-source Discord communities.
Warnings automatically escalate based on configurable thresholds: auto-mute at 3, auto-kick at 5, and auto-ban at 7. Customize per server.
In-server button + challenge flow with automatic checks and a moderator review fallback queue. No DMs required.
Protect the verification channel by deleting posts, warning the member, and permanently banning repeat posts within 24 hours.
Automatically remove members who do not complete verification within your configured timeout, while preserving moderator control through role and permission checks.
Automatically assign a role to every new member when they join. Independent of verification, it works alongside or without it.
Disable member-to-member DMs and invite creation server-wide. Auto-extends every 12 hours to stay permanent.
Each server gets independent settings, log channels, strike history, and thresholds. Full control via /config.
Separate shard manager and client entry points. Scales effortlessly to thousands of servers without code changes.
Warnings stack up. Consequences follow automatically.
Defaults shown. Customize thresholds per server with /config thresholds

Adjust the escalation thresholds to fit your community.
/config thresholds mute:3 kick:5 ban:7
Use slash commands to warn, mute, kick, or ban members. The bot handles escalation automatically.
Use a self-service verification channel and a private review channel to protect your community without relying on DMs.
Create a member-facing verification channel and a review channel. In the review channel, deny View Channel to @everyone, then grant access to your moderator roles and Zentrynel.
Turn on the verification flow for your server.
/config verificationenable enabled:true
Set the text channel where members verify and the channel where moderators review requests.
/config verificationchannels verify:#verification review:#verification-review
Choose the role granted after approval and the role assigned while a member is pending verification.
/config verificationroles verified:@Verified unverified:@Unverified
Optionally set a minimum account age and maximum automated challenge attempts.
/config verificationrules minage:24h maxattempts:3
Optionally remove members who never verify and expire reviews that moderators do not resolve. The verification auto-kick runs periodically and checks the bot's permissions and role hierarchy before taking action.
