maintenance mode

Maintenance Mode

Maintenance mode is stored in PostgreSQL bot_state using:

• maintenance_mode
• maintenance_reason

It is controlled from backend shell commands, not from broad Discord admin commands.

During Maintenance

• Incoming sends are still saved to PostgreSQL.
• Webhook sends are inserted as queued_maintenance.
• The bot does not post queued sends to Discord.
• Public leaderboards continue to reflect posted sends only.
• Legacy imported sends that were seeded as posted stay out of the queue.

After Maintenance

When maintenance mode is disabled, the bot queue worker:

1. Releases queued_maintenance sends back to pending.
2. Processes them oldest-first.
3. Marks successful posts as posted.
4. Marks failures as failed.
5. Refreshes public leaderboards.
