Releaseguard Plugin

Releaseguard Plugin

The releaseguard plugin validates release names before the directory is even created.

What It Does

• blocks obviously bad release names at MKD time
• provides SITE BANNED visibility into banned patterns
• keeps junk from entering the race tree in the first place
• can announce rejected MKD attempts to staff via RELEASEGUARD

Best Pairing

Use it together with Autonuke Plugin:

• releaseguard stops bad names early
• autonuke cleans up policy failures found later during scans
