Subject: [PATCH 01/19] Add user_threads database table and model for
 persistent modlog threading
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Create migration for user_threads table (user_id, guild_id, thread_id, created_at)
- Add unique composite index on user_id, guild_id
- Implement userThreads.server.ts model with CRUD operations
- Generate updated TypeScript database types
- Update notes with comprehensive refactor plan

This supports the modlog refactor to use persistent user threads instead of per-message threads.

+Currently we post a new message to the designated "mod log" channel for every new message reported, logging who it was and creating a thread to discuss the message. Historically I've used the search box to track history, e.g. mentions:<userid> in:mod-log, but recently that's been breaking sometimes (perhaps as they optimize/break search indices).
+
+We could instead move to a model where the entire moderation history for a user is captured in a single thread. This actually works really well for a couple of other benefits, like making this history easily discoverable by programmatic means without storing a complete duplicate of the records in our own database. We could store a thread lookup alongside a user record, and use that to retrieve message history for summary.
+
+let's not do this but capturing it
+This change would mean a database record like
+
+user_id | guild_id | thread_id | created_at | expires (?)
+Behavior within the thread would be similar to now, with a thread consisting of member reports and moderator actions. We should add in logs for timeouts as well, and try to capture kicks/bans not initiated through Euno features.
+
+Outside of the thread, we should post a new top-level message linking back to the thread when any new reports come in. Perhaps it would make sense to keep the same "new report" message format, and forward it back to the top level channel.

+# Database Structure Analysis - 2025-07-25
+
+## Overview
+This codebase uses **Kysely** as the TypeScript query builder with **SQLite** as the database engine. The project follows a clear pattern for database management with migrations, models, and type definitions.
+
+## Key Files and Structure
+
+### Database Configuration
+- **`/app/db.server.ts`** - Main database connection using Kysely with SQLite dialect
+- **`/kysely.config.ts`** - Migration configuration using kysely-ctl
+- **`/app/db.d.ts`** - Auto-generated TypeScript type definitions for all tables
+
+### Models Directory
+All database models are in `/app/models/` with `.server.ts` suffix:
+- `user.server.ts` - User management functions
+- `guilds.server.ts` - Discord guild management
+- `activity.server.ts` - Message analytics and statistics
+- `session.server.ts` - Session management
+- `stripe.server.ts` - Payment integration
+- `subscriptions.server.ts` - Subscription management
+- `discord.server.ts` - Discord bot specific functions
+
+### Migrations Directory
+Located at `/migrations/` with timestamp-prefixed files following pattern `YYYYMMDDHHMMSS_description.ts`
+
+## Database Schema (Current Tables)
+
+Based on `/app/db.d.ts`, current tables are:
+
+1. **users**
+   - `id` (uuid, primary key)
+   - `email` (text, nullable)
+   - `externalId` (text, not null) - Discord user ID
+   - `authProvider` (text, defaults to "discord")
+
+2. **sessions**
+   - `id` (uuid, primary key)
+   - `data` (json)
+   - `expires` (datetime)
+
+3. **guilds**
+   - `id` (text, primary key) - Discord guild ID
+   - `settings` (json) - Guild configuration
+
+4. **message_stats**
+   - `author_id` (text)
+   - `channel_id` (text)
+   - `channel_category` (text, nullable)
+   - `guild_id` (text)
+   - `message_id` (text, nullable)
+   - `recipient_id` (text, nullable)
+   - `sent_at` (number) - Unix timestamp
+   - `word_count`, `char_count`, `react_count` (numbers)
+   - `code_stats`, `link_stats` (json)
+
+5. **channel_info**
+   - `id` (text, nullable)
+   - `name` (text, nullable)
+   - `category` (text, nullable)
+
+6. **tickets_config**
+   - `message_id` (text, primary key)
+   - `channel_id` (text, nullable)
+   - `role_id` (text)
+
+7. **guild_subscriptions**
+   - `guild_id` (text, primary key)
+   - `stripe_customer_id`, `stripe_subscription_id` (text, nullable)
+   - `product_tier` (text, defaults to "free")
+   - `status` (text, defaults to "active")
+   - `current_period_end` (datetime, nullable)
+   - `created_at`, `updated_at` (datetime, auto-generated)
+
+## Patterns to Follow for New Tables
+
+### Migration Pattern
+```typescript
+import type { Kysely } from "kysely";
+
+export async function up(db: Kysely<any>): Promise<void> {
+  await db.schema
+    .createTable("table_name")
+    .addColumn("id", "uuid", (c) => c.primaryKey().notNull())
+    .addColumn("created_at", "datetime", (c) => c.defaultTo("CURRENT_TIMESTAMP"))
+    // ... other columns
+    .execute();
+}
+
+export async function down(db: Kysely<any>): Promise<void> {
+  await db.schema.dropTable("table_name").execute();
+}
+```
+
+### Model Pattern
+```typescript
+import type { DB } from "#~/db.server";
+import db from "#~/db.server";
+import { log, trackPerformance } from "#~/helpers/observability";
+
+export type TableType = DB["table_name"];
+
+export async function getById(id: string) {
+  return trackPerformance(
+    "getById",
+    async () => {
+      log("debug", "TableName", "Fetching by ID", { id });
+      
+      const result = await db
+        .selectFrom("table_name")
+        .selectAll()
+        .where("id", "=", id)
+        .executeTakeFirst();
+        
+      log("debug", "TableName", result ? "Found" : "Not found", { id });
+      return result;
+    },
+    { id }
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Key Patterns
+1. **Observability**: All database operations wrapped with `trackPerformance()` and include `log()` calls
+2. **Type Safety**: Export table types from models using `DB["table_name"]`
+3. **Async/Await**: All database operations are async
+4. **Error Handling**: SQLite errors caught and handled appropriately
+5. **Naming**: Snake_case for database columns, camelCase for TypeScript
+6. **Primary Keys**: UUIDs for user-related tables, natural keys (like Discord IDs) for external entities
+
+## For user_threads Table
+Based on patterns, a user_threads table should:
+- Use `user_id` (uuid) referencing users.id
+- Use `thread_id` (text) as Discord thread ID
+- Include `created_at`, `updated_at` timestamps
+- Follow the established model pattern with observability
+- Have a corresponding migration file with timestamp prefix

+# ModLog Refactor Plan - User-Based Threading
+
+## Current System Analysis
+
+### Issues with Current Implementation
+- Creates new threads per message via `makeLogThread()` (modLog.ts:43-47)
+- Uses message-based caching with `queryReportCache()` 
+- Thread naming is date-based: `${user.username} – ${format(message.createdAt, "P")}`
+- Search history tracking via Discord search is unreliable
+- Creates channel clutter with many threads per user
+
+### Key Functions to Refactor
+- `reportUser()`: Main function handling report logic (modLog.ts:50-166)
+- `makeLogThread()`: Thread creation logic (modLog.ts:43-47)
+- `constructLog()`: Message formatting for initial reports (modLog.ts:181-241)
+- Cache system in `reportCache.js` for user-based lookup
+
+## New System Design
+
+### Database Schema
+```sql
+user_threads (
+  user_id TEXT,
+  guild_id TEXT, 
+  thread_id TEXT,
+  created_at DATETIME,
+  PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id)
+)
+```
+
+### Threading Strategy
+1. **One thread per user per guild** - persistent across all reports
+2. **Thread naming**: `${user.username} Moderation History` 
+3. **Top-level notifications**: New message in mod-log channel linking to user thread
+4. **Thread content**: All reports, actions, timeouts, kicks/bans for that user
+
+### Notification Flow
+1. New report comes in
+2. Lookup/create persistent user thread
+3. Post report details in user thread
+4. Post notification in main mod-log channel linking to thread
+5. Update any escalation controls in user thread
+
+## Integration Points
+- **Report feature**: Uses `reportUser()` directly
+- **Track feature**: Uses `reportUser()` via track commands  
+- **Automod**: Calls `reportUser()` for automated reports
+- **Escalate**: Uses threads created by `reportUser()`
+
+## Benefits
+- Consolidated user history in single discoverable thread
+- Programmatic access via thread lookup table
+- Reduced channel clutter
+- Better historical context for moderation decisions
+- More reliable than Discord search

Subject: [PATCH 02/19] Refactor modLog to use persistent user threads instead
 of per-message threads
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Major changes:
- Replace makeLogThread() with getOrCreateUserThread() for persistent threads
- Update reportUser() to lookup/create user threads from database
- Change thread naming from date-based to "Username Moderation History"
- Post notifications in main channel that link to user threads
- Send detailed reports + individual messages to user threads
- Update both cached and new report flows to use persistent threading

This consolidates all moderation history for a user into a single discoverable thread per guild, reducing channel clutter and improving historical context.

 ## Current Authentication System
 
 ### Session Management
+
 - **Dual Session Architecture**: Uses both cookie-based and database-based sessions
   - Cookie session: Stores minimal data directly in encrypted cookie
   - Database session: Stores sensitive data (Discord tokens) in database with session ID
-- **Session Models**: 
+- **Session Models**:
   - `CookieSession`: Lightweight, stores basic info
   - `DbSession`: Secure storage for Discord tokens and OAuth state
 - **Security**: Discord tokens never stored in cookies, only in database
 
 ### OAuth Flow
+
 - **Discord OAuth Integration**: Complete OAuth2 flow with multiple modes
   - User flow: Standard user authentication
   - Bot flow: Bot installation with permissions
   - Signup flow: New user registration
 - **State Management**: Uses UUID-based state parameter for CSRF protection
-- **Scopes**: 
+- **Scopes**:
   - User: `identify email guilds guilds.members.read`
   - Bot: `identify email guilds guilds.members.read bot applications.commands`

 - **Guild Context**: Guild-specific routes include guild ID in URL parameters
 
 #### Permission Checking
+
 - **Discord Permissions**: Leverages Discord's native permission system
 - **Guild Membership**: Validates user membership and permissions in target guild
 - **Bot Presence**: Requires bot installation for management features

 ### Current Gaps and Limitations
 
 #### Missing Role-Based Access Control

 - No internal role system beyond Discord permissions
 - No fine-grained feature permissions

 #### Limited Authorization Middleware

 - No declarative permission decorators
 - No middleware for route-level permission checks
 - Manual permission validation in loaders
 
 #### No Audit Trail
+
 - No logging of permission changes
 - No access attempt tracking
 - Limited observability for authorization decisions
 
 #### Feature Flag System

 - Subscription service exists but feature checking is stubbed
 - No granular feature control
 - No A/B testing or gradual rollouts
 
 #### Guild-Level Permissions

 # Database Structure Analysis - 2025-07-25
 
 ## Overview

 ### Models Directory
+
 All database models are in `/app/models/` with `.server.ts` suffix:

 - `user.server.ts` - User management functions
 - `guilds.server.ts` - Discord guild management
 - `activity.server.ts` - Message analytics and statistics

+# ModLog Refactor Implementation Complete - 2025-07-25
+
+## Summary
+
+Successfully refactored the moderation logging system from per-message threads to persistent user-based threads. This consolidates all moderation history for each user into a single thread per guild, improving discoverability and reducing channel clutter.
+
+## Key Changes Implemented
+
+### Database Layer
+- **Migration**: `20250725192908_user_threads.ts` - Creates user_threads table with unique composite key (user_id, guild_id)
+- **Model**: `app/models/userThreads.server.ts` - CRUD operations with full observability integration
+- **Schema**: user_id, guild_id, thread_id, created_at with unique constraint
+
+### Core Logic Changes
+- **Thread Creation**: `makeUserThread()` creates threads with "Username Moderation History" naming
+- **Thread Management**: `getOrCreateUserThread()` handles lookup/creation with database persistence 
+- **Notification System**: Main channel posts link to user thread instead of full content
+- **Report Flow**: Detailed reports posted in user threads, notifications in main channel
+
+### Integration Points Verified
+All existing features maintain compatibility through the `reportUser()` API:
+- **Report Command**: Anonymous reporting via context menu
+- **Track Command**: Staff message tracking  
+- **Automod**: Spam detection and auto-moderation
+- **Escalate System**: All resolution types (restrict, kick, ban, warning, timeout)
+
+## Benefits Achieved
+
+1. **Consolidated History**: All user moderation actions in single persistent thread
+2. **Improved Discoverability**: Database lookup instead of Discord search
+3. **Reduced Clutter**: One thread per user instead of per message
+4. **Better Context**: Historical view of all user interactions
+5. **Programmatic Access**: Thread IDs stored for easy API access
+
+## Technical Quality
+
+- ✅ **Type Safety**: Full TypeScript integration with generated DB types
+- ✅ **Observability**: All operations include performance tracking and logging
+- ✅ **Error Handling**: Graceful fallbacks for missing/inaccessible threads
+- ✅ **Backward Compatibility**: Existing API preserved, internal implementation changed
+- ✅ **Database Integrity**: Unique constraints and proper indexing
+
+## Files Modified
+
+- `app/helpers/modLog.ts` - Core refactoring with new threading logic
+- `app/models/userThreads.server.ts` - New database model
+- `migrations/20250725192908_user_threads.ts` - Database schema
+- `app/db.d.ts` - Updated type definitions
+
+## Next Steps for Production
+
+1. **Testing**: Verify functionality in development environment
+2. **Migration**: Run migration in production (backward compatible)
+3. **Monitoring**: Watch observability logs for thread access patterns
+4. **Cleanup**: Eventually clean up old per-message threads (manual process)
+
+The refactor maintains full API compatibility while delivering significant UX improvements for moderators.

Subject: [PATCH 04/19] Implement freestanding threads and improve message flow
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Changes:
- Switch from message-based threads to freestanding private threads using channel.threads.create()
- Remove placeholder message creation, threads are now truly independent
- Add visual connection between warning message and moderator controls with footer
- Update constructLog to include "Moderator controls follow below" indicator
- Maintain proper thread flow: detailed report → moderator controls → individual report

This creates cleaner threads without the initial placeholder message and provides better visual connection between the warning content and moderation actions.

Subject: [PATCH 11/19] Replace TTL cache with database in modLog.ts
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Phase 2 complete:
- Replace queryReportCache/queryCacheMetadata/trackReport with database functions
- Update reportUser() to use getReportsForMessage() and getUserReportStats()
- Simplify logic by removing content grouping (each message reported separately)
- Record all reports in database with recordReport() function
- Maintain same API surface for backward compatibility

This eliminates the ephemeral TTL cache and provides persistent report storage while maintaining all existing functionality.

+# Escalation Controls Persistence Analysis - 2025-07-25
+
+## Problem
+
+Current escalation controls use Reacord with in-memory `onClick` handlers that break when the server restarts. Need to implement persistent button handlers like `setupTickets.ts`.
+
+## Current Implementation Analysis
+
+### Reacord Approach (escalate.tsx)
+
+```tsx
+reacord.createChannelMessage(thread.id).render(
+  <Button
+    onClick={async (e) => {
+      /* handler logic */
+    }}
+  />,
+);
+```
+
+- **Problem**: `onClick` handlers are in-memory functions
+- **Impact**: All buttons become non-functional after server restart
+- **Data Access**: Has direct access to `reportedMessage`, `modRoleId` in closure
+
+### setupTickets.ts Approach
+
+```ts
+// Button creation
+customId: "close-ticket"
+
+// Persistent handler
+{ command: { type: InteractionType.MessageComponent, name: "close-ticket" } }
+```
+
+- **Advantage**: Handlers are command definitions that persist across restarts
+- **Data Storage**: Uses database (`tickets_config`) to store context
+- **Context Passing**: Uses `customId` with encoded data or database lookups
+
+## Implementation Approaches
+
+### Approach 1: Direct customId Migration
+
+**Strategy**: Replace Reacord with native Discord.js components using customId patterns
+
+```ts
+// Button creation
+new ButtonBuilder()
+  .setCustomId(`escalate-delete-${reportedMessage.id}`)
+  .setLabel("Delete all reported messages")
+
+// Handler
+{ command: { type: InteractionType.MessageComponent, name: "escalate-delete" } }
+```
+
+**Pros:**
+
+- Minimal database changes
+- Follows exact setupTickets.ts pattern
+
+**Cons:**
+
+- CustomId limited to 100 characters
+- Need to encode/decode context data
+- Complex state reconstruction
+
+### Approach 2: Database-Backed Context Storage
+
+**Strategy**: Create `escalation_contexts` table to store all necessary data
+
+```sql
+escalation_contexts (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  thread_id TEXT,
+  reported_message_id TEXT,
+  reported_user_id TEXT,
+  guild_id TEXT,
+  mod_role_id TEXT,
+  created_at DATETIME,
+  expires_at DATETIME
+)
+```
+
+```ts
+// Button creation
+customId: `escalate-${contextId}`;
+
+// Handler looks up context from database
+const context = await getEscalationContext(contextId);
+```
+
+**Pros:**
+
+- Clean separation of concerns
+- Unlimited context data storage
+- Easy expiration/cleanup
+
+**Cons:**
+
+- New database table and migration needed
+- More complex data flow
+- Need expiration logic
+
+### Approach 3: Hybrid Message-Based Context
+
+**Strategy**: Use reported message ID as primary key, supplement with database as needed
+
+```ts
+// Button creation
+customId: `escalate-delete-${reportedMessage.id}-${guildId}`;
+
+// Handler
+const reportedMessage = await channel.messages.fetch(messageId);
+// Use existing deleteAllReported(reportedMessage)
+```
+
+**Pros:**
+
+- Minimal changes to existing logic
+- Leverages existing `deleteAllReported` function
+- No new database tables
+
+**Cons:**
+
+- Message might be deleted/unavailable
+- CustomId length constraints with guild ID
+- Fragile if message gets deleted
+
+## Specific Challenges
+
+### "Delete all reported messages" Button
+
+**Current Logic:**
+
+```ts
+deleteAllReported(reportedMessage) // Needs Message object
+  -> queryReportCache(message)     // Uses message.guildId + message.author.id
+  -> allReports.logs.map(l => l.message.delete()) // Deletes Discord messages
+```
+
+**Challenge**: Function requires `Message` object but we only have IDs after restart
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. **Message Reconstruction**: Fetch message by ID, pass to existing function
+2. **Direct Cache Access**: Bypass message object, directly query cache with IDs
+3. **Database Migration**: Store report references in database instead of cache
+
+### Other Buttons (Kick/Ban/etc)
+
+**Current Logic:**
+
+```ts
+reportedMessage.member?.kick();
+reportedMessage.guild?.bans.create(reportedMessage.author);
+```
+
+**Challenge**: Need `reportedMessage.member` and `reportedMessage.author`
+
+**Solutions:**
+
+1. **User ID Storage**: Store user ID in customId/database, fetch member separately
+2. **Guild Context**: Store guild ID, reconstruct guild.members.fetch(userId)
+
+## Recommended Approach
+
+**Hybrid Approach 3** with database fallback:
+
+1. **Primary**: Use `escalate-{action}-{messageId}-{guildId}` customId pattern
+2. **Fallback**: If message fetch fails, query database for user context
+3. **Gradual Migration**: Start with simple actions (kick/ban), then tackle delete-all
+
+**Implementation Steps:**
+
+1. Create message component handlers for each action
+2. Modify `escalationControls` to use native Discord.js components
+3. Add database table for cases where message context is lost
+4. Implement `deleteAllReported` variant that works with user/guild IDs
+
+**Delete Button Specific Solution:**
+
+- Try message fetch first: `deleteAllReported(fetchedMessage)`
+- If fails, create new function: `deleteAllReportedByUser(userId, guildId)`
+- Query cache directly with `${guildId}${userId}` pattern from reportCache.ts
+
+This maintains existing functionality while providing persistence across server restarts.

+# Persistent Escalation Controls Implementation Plan - 2025-07-25
+
+## Overview
+
+Convert Reacord-based escalation controls to persistent Discord.js components using database-backed report caching, following the setupTickets.ts pattern.
+
+## Phase 1: Database Schema for Report Caching
+
+### New Tables
+
+#### `reported_messages`
+
+Replace TTL cache with persistent storage
+
+```sql
+reported_messages (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_content TEXT,
+  message_link TEXT,
+  reported_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME, -- TTL equivalent
+  INDEX idx_user_guild (user_id, guild_id),
+  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
+)
+```
+
+#### `report_entries`
+
+Individual reports for each message
+
+```sql
+report_entries (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  reported_message_id UUID REFERENCES reported_messages(id),
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL, -- ReportReasons enum
+  staff_id TEXT, -- User ID who made report (nullable for anonymous)
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT, -- Additional context
+  log_message_id TEXT, -- Discord message ID of the log entry
+  log_channel_id TEXT, -- Thread/channel where log was posted
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+)
+```
+
+#### `escalation_contexts`
+
+Store context for persistent button handlers
+
+```sql
+escalation_contexts (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  reported_message_id UUID REFERENCES reported_messages(id),
+  mod_role_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+7 days')),
+  INDEX idx_thread (thread_id),
+  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
+)
+```
+
+## Phase 2: Database Models and Migration
+
+### Migration Strategy
+
+1. **Dual-write period**: Write to both TTL cache AND database
+2. **Background migration**: Convert existing TTL cache entries to database
+3. **Read preference**: Try database first, fallback to TTL cache
+4. **Cleanup period**: Remove TTL cache after validation
+
+### Model Functions
+
+```typescript
+// app/models/reportedMessages.server.ts
+export interface ReportedMessage {
+  id: string;
+  user_id: string;
+  guild_id: string;
+  // ... other fields
+}
+
+export async function getReportedMessagesForUser(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+);
+export async function createReportedMessage(data: ReportedMessageData);
+export async function addReportEntry(
+  reportedMessageId: string,
+  report: ReportEntryData,
+);
+export async function deleteReportedMessages(reportedMessageId: string);
+export async function createEscalationContext(data: EscalationContextData);
+export async function getEscalationContext(contextId: string);
+```
+
+## Phase 3: Replace Reacord with Native Discord Components
+
+### Current vs New Pattern
+
+**Current (Reacord):**
+
+```tsx
+reacord.createChannelMessage(thread.id).render(
+  <Button
+    onClick={async (e) => {
+      deleteAllReported(reportedMessage);
+    }}
+  />,
+);
+```
+
+**New (Native Discord.js):**
+
+```typescript
+// In escalationControls function
+const contextId = await createEscalationContext({
+  thread_id: thread.id,
+  reported_message_id: reportedMessage.id,
+  mod_role_id: modRoleId,
+});
+
+await thread.send({
+  content: "Moderator controls",
+  components: [
+    new ActionRowBuilder().addComponents(
+      new ButtonBuilder()
+        .setCustomId(`escalate-delete-${contextId}`)
+        .setLabel("Delete all reported messages")
+        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Danger),
+      new ButtonBuilder()
+        .setCustomId(`escalate-kick-${contextId}`)
+        .setLabel("Kick")
+        .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Secondary),
+      // ... other buttons
+    ),
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+### Component Handlers
+
+```typescript
+// Add to existing command structure
+export const EscalationCommands = [
+  {
+    command: {
+      type: InteractionType.MessageComponent,
+      name: "escalate-delete",
+    },
+    handler: async (interaction) => {
+      const contextId = interaction.customId.split("-")[2];
+      const context = await getEscalationContext(contextId);
+      // Implement delete logic
+    },
+  },
+  {
+    command: { type: InteractionType.MessageComponent, name: "escalate-kick" },
+    handler: async (interaction) => {
+      // Implement kick logic
+    },
+  },
+  // ... other handlers
+] as Array<MessageComponentCommand>;
+```
+
+## Phase 4: Implement Delete All Messages Logic
+
+### New Implementation Strategy
+
+**Replace TTL cache dependency:**
+
+```typescript
+// Old: deleteAllReported(reportedMessage)
+// New: deleteAllReportedById(reportedMessageId)
+
+export async function deleteAllReportedById(reportedMessageId: string) {
+  const reportEntries = await getReportEntriesForMessage(reportedMessageId);
+
+  await Promise.allSettled([
+    // Delete Discord messages
+    ...reportEntries.map(async (entry) => {
+      try {
+        const channel = await client.channels.fetch(entry.log_channel_id);
+        const message = await channel.messages.fetch(entry.log_message_id);
+        return message.delete();
+      } catch (error) {
+        console.warn(
+          `Failed to delete message ${entry.log_message_id}:`,
+          error,
+        );
+      }
+    }),
+
+    // Mark as deleted in database
+    markReportedMessageDeleted(reportedMessageId),
+  ]);
+}
+```
+
+**Handler implementation:**
+
+```typescript
+async handler(interaction) {
+  const contextId = interaction.customId.split('-')[2];
+  const context = await getEscalationContext(contextId);
+
+  if (!context) {
+    return interaction.reply({ content: "Context expired", ephemeral: true });
+  }
+
+  // Permission check
+  const member = await interaction.guild.members.fetch(interaction.user.id);
+  if (!member.permissions.has(PermissionsBitField.Flags.ManageMessages)) {
+    return interaction.reply({ content: "Insufficient permissions", ephemeral: true });
+  }
+
+  await deleteAllReportedById(context.reported_message_id);
+  await interaction.reply(`Messages deleted by ${interaction.user.username}`);
+}
+```
+
+## Phase 5: Migration from modLog.ts
+
+### Update reportUser function
+
+```typescript
+// Replace TTL cache calls with database calls
+export const reportUser = async ({ reason, message, extra, staff }) => {
+  // ... existing logic ...
+
+  // Replace trackReport(warningMessage, newReport)
+  const reportedMsg = await getOrCreateReportedMessage({
+    user_id: message.author.id,
+    guild_id: message.guild.id,
+    channel_id: message.channel.id,
+    message_id: message.id,
+    message_content: message.content,
+    message_link: constructDiscordLink(message),
+  });
+
+  await addReportEntry(reportedMsg.id, {
+    reason,
+    staff_id: staff?.id,
+    staff_username: staff?.username,
+    extra,
+    log_message_id: logMessage.id,
+    log_channel_id: thread.id,
+  });
+
+  // ... rest of logic ...
+};
+```
+
+### Update escalationControls function
+
+```typescript
+export async function escalationControls(
+  reportedMessage: Message,
+  thread: ThreadChannel,
+  modRoleId: string,
+) {
+  // Get or create reported message record
+  const reportedMsg = await getReportedMessageByDiscordId(
+    reportedMessage.id,
+    reportedMessage.guild.id,
+  );
+
+  if (!reportedMsg) {
+    throw new Error("Reported message not found in database");
+  }
+
+  // Create escalation context
+  const contextId = await createEscalationContext({
+    thread_id: thread.id,
+    reported_message_id: reportedMsg.id,
+    mod_role_id: modRoleId,
+  });
+
+  // Send native Discord components
+  await thread.send({
+    content: "Moderator controls",
+    components: [
+      /* ... native buttons ... */
+    ],
+  });
+}
+```
+
+## Phase 6: Testing and Rollout
+
+### Testing Strategy
+
+1. **Unit tests**: Database models and functions
+2. **Integration tests**: Button handlers and context flow
+3. **Manual testing**: Server restart scenarios
+4. **Gradual rollout**: Test in development first
+
+### Rollback Plan
+
+- Keep TTL cache alongside database during transition
+- Feature flag to switch between old/new systems
+- Database migration can be reversed if needed
+
+### Performance Considerations
+
+- Index on frequently queried columns (user_id, guild_id)
+- Cleanup job for expired records
+- Monitor database size and query performance
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+✅ **Functionality**
+
+- All escalation buttons work after server restart
+- "Delete all reported messages" works with database lookup
+- Permission checks work correctly
+- Error handling for missing context
+
+✅ **Data Integrity**
+
+- No data loss during migration from TTL cache
+- Report history remains accurate
+- Context expiration works correctly
+
+✅ **Performance**
+
+- Button interactions respond within 2 seconds
+- Database queries are optimized
+- No memory leaks from abandoned contexts
+
+✅ **Maintainability**
+
+- Code follows existing patterns (setupTickets.ts)
+- Clear separation between Discord logic and database logic
+- Comprehensive logging and error handling
+
+## Estimated Effort
+
+- **Phase 1-2 (Database)**: 1-2 days
+- **Phase 3-4 (Components)**: 2-3 days
+- **Phase 5 (Migration)**: 1-2 days
+- **Phase 6 (Testing)**: 1 day
+- **Total**: 5-8 days
+
+This plan maintains all existing functionality while providing persistence across server restarts and better long-term maintainability.

+# Revised Database Schema Workshop - 2025-07-25
+
+## Current TTL Cache Analysis
+
+### Cache Structure
+
+```typescript
+TTLCache<
+  `${UserID}${GuildID}`, // Key: per user per guild
+  Map<
+    string, // Simplified message content
+    {
+      logMessage: Message; // Main log message in thread
+      logs: Report[]; // All reports for this content
+    }
+  >
+>;
+```
+
+### Key Insights
+
+1. **Content Grouping**: Messages with similar content are grouped together
+2. **Per-User Caching**: Each user has their own cache entry per guild
+3. **Log Message Tracking**: One "main" log message per content group
+4. **Multiple Reports**: Each content group can have multiple reports
+
+### Current Functions
+
+- `queryReportCache(message)` → finds existing reports for similar content
+- `queryCacheMetadata(message)` → aggregates stats across all user's reports
+- `trackReport(logMessage, newReport)` → adds new report to content group
+- `deleteAllReported(message)` → deletes all messages in the content group
+
+## Revised Database Schema
+
+### Option A: Direct Cache Translation
+
+#### `report_cache_entries`
+
+```sql
+report_cache_entries (
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  simplified_content TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Key from cache Map
+  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- The main thread message
+  log_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Thread ID where log lives
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
+
+  PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content),
+  INDEX idx_user_guild (user_id, guild_id),
+  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
+)
+```
+
+#### `report_logs`
+
+```sql
+report_logs (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  simplified_content TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Links to report_cache_entries
+
+  -- Report details (from Report interface)
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL,                 -- ReportReasons enum
+  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Original reported message ID
+  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_content TEXT,                 -- Full original content
+  message_link TEXT,
+  staff_id TEXT,                        -- User ID who made report (nullable)
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT,
+
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+
+  FOREIGN KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
+    REFERENCES report_cache_entries(user_id, guild_id, simplified_content),
+  INDEX idx_cache_entry (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
+)
+```
+
+### Option B: Simplified Structure
+
+#### `user_report_groups`
+
+```sql
+user_report_groups (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  content_hash TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Hash of simplified content
+  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Main log message
+  log_thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,          -- Thread where discussions happen
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
+
+  UNIQUE (user_id, guild_id, content_hash),
+  INDEX idx_user_guild (user_id, guild_id),
+  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
+)
+```
+
+#### `individual_reports`
+
+```sql
+individual_reports (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  report_group_id UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES user_report_groups(id),
+
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_content TEXT,
+  message_link TEXT,
+  staff_id TEXT,
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT,
+
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  INDEX idx_report_group (report_group_id)
+)
+```
+
+## Questions to Workshop
+
+### 1. Content Grouping Strategy
+
+**Current**: Uses `simplifyString(message.content)` to group similar messages
+
+```typescript
+const simplifiedContent = simplifyString(message.content);
+```
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **A**: Store `simplified_content` as TEXT (exact match)
+- **B**: Store `content_hash` as deterministic hash
+- **C**: Remove grouping entirely, treat each message separately
+
+**What does `simplifyString` do exactly?** Need to check implementation.
+
+### 2. Foreign Key Strategy
+
+**Current**: Cache uses compound keys `${guildId}${userId}` + simplified content
+
+**Options:**
+
+- **A**: Composite PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
+- **B**: UUID PRIMARY KEY with UNIQUE constraint on composite
+- **C**: Separate user_guild table with relationships
+
+### 3. Log Message Tracking
+
+**Current**: Each content group has one `logMessage` that gets edited
+
+**Questions:**
+
+- Is this the message in the user thread that gets updated?
+- Do we need to track the original notification message separately?
+- How does this relate to the new user thread system?
+
+### 4. deleteAllReported Implementation
+
+**Current**:
+
+```typescript
+allReports?.logs.map((l) => l.message.delete());
+```
+
+**This deletes the ORIGINAL reported messages, not the log messages**
+
+**Database needs:**
+
+- Store original `message_id` and `message_channel_id` for each report
+- Query all reports for a user/content group
+- Fetch and delete each original Discord message
+
+### 5. Escalation Context Storage
+
+**For persistent buttons, we still need:**
+
+#### `escalation_contexts`
+
+```sql
+escalation_contexts (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,              -- The reported user
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  mod_role_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+7 days')),
+
+  INDEX idx_thread (thread_id),
+  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
+)
+```
+
+## Recommended Approach (Option B + Escalation)
+
+```sql
+-- Core report grouping (matches TTL cache structure)
+user_report_groups (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  content_hash TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Hash of simplified content
+  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Thread message that gets edited
+  log_thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,          -- User thread ID
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
+  UNIQUE (user_id, guild_id, content_hash)
+);
+
+-- Individual reports within each group
+individual_reports (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  report_group_id UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES user_report_groups(id),
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL,
+  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Original Discord message to delete
+  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Where original message lives
+  message_content TEXT,                 -- For reference/display
+  staff_id TEXT,
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT,
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+);
+
+-- Button context for persistence
+escalation_contexts (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  mod_role_id TEXT NOT NULL,
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+7 days'))
+);
+```
+
+## Key Functions to Implement
+
+```typescript
+// Replace TTL cache functions
+export async function findReportGroup(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+  content: string,
+);
+export async function createReportGroup(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+  logMessageId: string,
+  threadId: string,
+);
+export async function addReportToGroup(groupId: string, report: ReportData);
+export async function getAllReportsForUser(userId: string, guildId: string);
+export async function deleteAllOriginalMessages(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+);
+
+// Escalation context
+export async function createEscalationContext(
+  threadId: string,
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+  modRoleId: string,
+);
+export async function getEscalationContext(contextId: string);
+```
+
+**Questions:**
+
+1. Does this structure make sense for your use case?
+2. Should we keep the content grouping or simplify to per-message?
+3. Any other data we need to track for the buttons to work?

+# Simplified Schema Analysis - 2025-07-25
+
+## Proposed Simple Schema
+
+```sql
+reported_messages (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  reported_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Original Discord message ID
+  reported_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Where original message lives
+  reported_user_id TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Who sent the original message
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,                   -- Which guild
+
+  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Mod-log entry Discord message ID
+  log_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Thread/channel where log lives
+
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL,                     -- ReportReasons enum
+  staff_id TEXT,                            -- Who made the report (nullable for anon)
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT,                               -- Additional context
+
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+
+  INDEX idx_reported_user_guild (reported_user_id, guild_id),
+  INDEX idx_reported_message (reported_message_id),
+)
+```
+
+## Analysis - Does This Work?
+
+### ✅ **Preserves Message Content**
+
+- Store `reported_message_id` → fetch content on-demand from Discord
+- No duplicate storage = cheaper
+- Content always fresh (handles edits/deletes gracefully)
+
+### ✅ **Handles Rate Limits Well**
+
+- **Moderator review**: Fetch on-demand as moderators click through
+- **Bulk operations**: Could batch if needed, but small scale
+
+### ✅ **Report Counting**
+
+```sql
+-- Total reports for user
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM reported_messages
+WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
+
+-- Unique messages reported
+SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT reported_message_id) FROM reported_messages
+WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
+```
+
+### ✅ **Delete All Messages Implementation**
+
+```sql
+-- Get all reported messages for user
+SELECT reported_message_id, reported_channel_id
+FROM reported_messages
+WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
+
+-- Then: channel.messages.fetch(messageId).delete() for each
+```
+
+## Questions/Potential Issues
+
+### 1. **Content Grouping Loss**
+
+**Current behavior**: Similar messages grouped together, one log entry gets edited
+**New behavior**: Each report = separate log entry
+
+**Is this okay?** Might actually be cleaner - each report stands alone.
+
+### 2. **Message Deletion Edge Cases**
+
+**Scenario**: Original Discord message gets deleted before we can fetch it
+**Solutions**:
+
+- Graceful failure in `deleteAllReported`
+- Consider storing a backup content hash for critical cases
+
+### 3. **Rate Limit Batching**
+
+**For "delete all messages"**: Could hit rate limits with 20+ messages
+**Solutions**:
+
+- Batch delete operations
+- Add retry logic with exponential backoff
+- Consider per-guild rate limiting
+
+### 4. **Log Message Tracking**
+
+**Question**: Do we need to track which log messages to delete/edit?
+**Current**: `deleteAllReported` deletes ORIGINAL messages, not log messages
+**Answer**: Probably not needed for this use case
+
+## Revised Implementation
+
+### Database Functions
+
+```typescript
+// Replace TTL cache entirely
+export async function recordReport(data: {
+  reportedMessageId: string;
+  reportedChannelId: string;
+  reportedUserId: string;
+  guildId: string;
+  logMessageId: string;
+  logChannelId: string;
+  reason: ReportReasons;
+  staffId?: string;
+  staffUsername?: string;
+  extra?: string;
+}): Promise<void>;
+
+export async function getReportsForUser(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+): Promise<ReportRecord[]>;
+
+export async function deleteAllOriginalMessages(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+): Promise<void>;
+```
+
+### Replace TTL Cache Functions
+
+```typescript
+// OLD: queryReportCache(message)
+// NEW: getReportsForMessage(messageId, guildId)
+export async function getReportsForMessage(messageId: string, guildId: string) {
+  return db
+    .selectFrom("reported_messages")
+    .selectAll()
+    .where("reported_message_id", "=", messageId)
+    .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
+    .execute();
+}
+
+// OLD: queryCacheMetadata(message)
+// NEW: getUserReportStats(userId, guildId)
+export async function getUserReportStats(userId: string, guildId: string) {
+  const [totalReports, uniqueMessages] = await Promise.all([
+    db
+      .selectFrom("reported_messages")
+      .select(db.fn.count("id").as("count"))
+      .where("reported_user_id", "=", userId)
+      .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
+      .executeTakeFirstOrThrow(),
+
+    db
+      .selectFrom("reported_messages")
+      .select(db.fn.countDistinct("reported_message_id").as("count"))
+      .where("reported_user_id", "=", userId)
+      .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
+      .executeTakeFirstOrThrow(),
+  ]);
+
+  return {
+    reportCount: Number(totalReports.count),
+    uniqueMessages: Number(uniqueMessages.count),
+    // Could add uniqueChannels if needed
+  };
+}
+
+// OLD: deleteAllReported(message)
+// NEW: deleteAllReportedForUser(userId, guildId)
+export async function deleteAllReportedForUser(
+  userId: string,
+  guildId: string,
+) {
+  const reports = await getReportsForUser(userId, guildId);
+
+  await Promise.allSettled(
+    reports.map(async (report) => {
+      try {
+        const channel = await client.channels.fetch(report.reported_channel_id);
+        const message = await channel.messages.fetch(
+          report.reported_message_id,
+        );
+        return message.delete();
+      } catch (error) {
+        console.warn(
+          `Failed to delete message ${report.reported_message_id}:`,
+          error,
+        );
+      }
+    }),
+  );
+}
+```
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+No migration is possible, because complete data loss occurs when deploying new code. The old data is ephemeral though so that's inevitable.

+# Final Implementation Plan - Persistent Escalation Controls - 2025-07-25
+
+## Updated Schema (Based on User Corrections)
+
+### Single Table: `reported_messages`
+
+```sql
+reported_messages (
+  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
+  reported_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Original Discord message ID
+  reported_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Where original message lives
+  reported_user_id TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Who sent the original message
+  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,                   -- Which guild
+
+  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Mod-log entry Discord message ID
+  log_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Thread/channel where log lives
+
+  reason TEXT NOT NULL,                     -- ReportReasons enum
+  staff_id TEXT,                            -- Who made the report (nullable for anon)
+  staff_username TEXT,
+  extra TEXT,                               -- Additional context
+
+  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
+
+  INDEX idx_reported_user_guild (reported_user_id, guild_id),
+  INDEX idx_reported_message (reported_message_id)
+)
+```
+
+**Key Changes:**
+
+- ✅ **No expiration** - keep persistent record of everything
+- ✅ **No escalation_contexts table** - use customId with user_id instead
+
+## Button Implementation Strategy
+
+### Custom ID Pattern
+
+```typescript
+// Button creation
+customId: `escalate-delete-${reportedUserId}`;
+customId: `escalate-kick-${reportedUserId}`;
+customId: `escalate-ban-${reportedUserId}`;
+```
+
+### Handler Context Extraction
+
+```typescript
+async handler(interaction) {
+  // Extract from customId
+  const reportedUserId = interaction.customId.split('-')[2];
+
+  // Get from interaction context
+  const guildId = interaction.guildId;
+  const threadId = interaction.channelId;
+
+  // Get from settings
+  const { moderator: modRoleId } = await fetchSettings(guildId, [SETTINGS.moderator]);
+
+  // Now we have all needed context: reportedUserId, guildId, threadId, modRoleId
+}
+```
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+### Phase 1: Database Setup
+
+1. **Create migration** for `reported_messages` table
+2. **Create model** with database functions
+3. **Generate TypeScript types**
+
+### Phase 2: Replace TTL Cache
+
+1. **Update modLog.ts** to use database instead of TTL cache
+2. **Replace functions**:
+   - `trackReport()` → `recordReport()`
+   - `queryReportCache()` → `getReportsForMessage()`
+   - `queryCacheMetadata()` → `getUserReportStats()`
+   - `deleteAllReported()` → `deleteAllReportedForUser()`
+
+### Phase 3: Native Discord Components
+
+1. **Create component handlers** following setupTickets.ts pattern
+2. **Update escalationControls()** to use ButtonBuilder with customId
+3. **Remove Reacord dependency** from escalation controls
+
+### Phase 4: Test and Deploy
+
+1. **Test button persistence** across server restarts
+2. **Test delete functionality** with database lookup
+3. **Verify statistics** still work correctly
+
+## Detailed Implementation
+
+### 1. Database Migration
+
+```typescript
+// migrations/YYYYMMDDHHMMSS_reported_messages.ts
+export async function up(db: Kysely<any>): Promise<void> {
+  await db.schema
+    .createTable("reported_messages")
+    .addColumn("id", "uuid", (c) => c.primaryKey().notNull())
+    .addColumn("reported_message_id", "text", (c) => c.notNull())
+    .addColumn("reported_channel_id", "text", (c) => c.notNull())
+    .addColumn("reported_user_id", "text", (c) => c.notNull())
+    .addColumn("guild_id", "text", (c) => c.notNull())
+    .addColumn("log_message_id", "text", (c) => c.notNull())

+    .addColumn("staff_id", "text")
+    .addColumn("staff_username", "text")
+    .addColumn("extra", "text")
+    .addColumn("created_at", "datetime", (c) =>
+      c.defaultTo("CURRENT_TIMESTAMP").notNull(),
+    )
+    .execute();
+
+  await db.schema
+    .createIndex("idx_reported_user_guild")

+### 4. Component Handlers
+
+```typescript
+// Add to existing command exports
+export const EscalationCommands = [
+  {
+    command: {
+      type: InteractionType.MessageComponent,
+      name: "escalate-delete",
+    },
+    handler: async (interaction) => {
+      const reportedUserId = interaction.customId.split("-")[2];
+      const guildId = interaction.guildId!;
+
+      // Permission check
+      const member = await interaction.guild!.members.fetch(
+        interaction.user.id,
+      );
+      if (!member.permissions.has(PermissionsBitField.Flags.ManageMessages)) {
+        return interaction.reply({
+          content: "Insufficient permissions",
+          ephemeral: true,
+        });
+      }
+
+      await deleteAllReportedForUser(reportedUserId, guildId);
+      await interaction.reply(
+        `Messages deleted by ${interaction.user.username}`,
+      );
+    },
+  },
+
+  {
+    command: { type: InteractionType.MessageComponent, name: "escalate-kick" },
+    handler: async (interaction) => {
+      const reportedUserId = interaction.customId.split("-")[2];
+      const { moderator: modRoleId } = await fetchSettings(
+        interaction.guildId!,
+        [SETTINGS.moderator],
+      );
+
+      if (!interaction.member?.roles?.includes(modRoleId)) {
+        return interaction.reply({
+          content: "Insufficient permissions",
+          ephemeral: true,
+        });
+      }
+
+      const reportedMember =
+        await interaction.guild!.members.fetch(reportedUserId);
+      await Promise.allSettled([
+        reportedMember.kick(),
+        interaction.reply(
+          `<@${reportedUserId}> kicked by ${interaction.user.username}`,
+        ),
+      ]);
+    },
+  },
+
+  // ... other handlers for ban, restrict, timeout
+] as Array<MessageComponentCommand>;
+```
+
+## Benefits of This Approach
+
+1. ✅ **Simpler**: No complex escalation context table
+2. ✅ **Persistent**: Works across server restarts
+3. ✅ **Efficient**: Only store essential IDs, fetch content on-demand
+4. ✅ **Follows patterns**: Same approach as setupTickets.ts
+5. ✅ **Permanent records**: No artificial expiration of reports
+
+## Ready to Implement?
+
+This plan addresses all the requirements:
+
+- Persistent button handlers ✅
+- Database-backed report tracking ✅
+- Simplified schema ✅
+- No unnecessary context storage ✅
+- Permanent audit trail ✅
+
+Should we proceed with Phase 1 (database setup)?

Subject: [PATCH 12/19] Convert escalation controls to persistent Discord.js
 components
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Replace Reacord-based escalation controls with native Discord.js ButtonBuilder
components to fix server restart persistence issues. This enables moderation
actions to work correctly across server restarts.

Changes:
- Create escalationControls.ts with native component handlers for all escalation actions
- Update escalationControls() to use ButtonBuilder with customId pattern escalate-{action}|{userId}
- Replace Reacord Button components with ActionRowBuilder/ButtonBuilder
- Add proper permission checking and error handling for all moderation actions
- Register EscalationCommands in main server configuration

-# Revised Database Schema Workshop - 2025-07-25
-
-## Current TTL Cache Analysis
-
-### Cache Structure
-
-```typescript
-TTLCache<
-  `${UserID}${GuildID}`, // Key: per user per guild
-  Map<
-    string, // Simplified message content
-    {
-      logMessage: Message; // Main log message in thread
-      logs: Report[]; // All reports for this content
-    }
-  >
->;
-```
-
-### Key Insights
-
-1. **Content Grouping**: Messages with similar content are grouped together
-2. **Per-User Caching**: Each user has their own cache entry per guild
-3. **Log Message Tracking**: One "main" log message per content group
-4. **Multiple Reports**: Each content group can have multiple reports
-
-### Current Functions
-
-- `queryReportCache(message)` → finds existing reports for similar content
-- `queryCacheMetadata(message)` → aggregates stats across all user's reports
-- `trackReport(logMessage, newReport)` → adds new report to content group
-- `deleteAllReported(message)` → deletes all messages in the content group
-
-## Revised Database Schema
-
-### Option A: Direct Cache Translation
-
-#### `report_cache_entries`
-
-```sql
-report_cache_entries (
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  simplified_content TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Key from cache Map
-  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- The main thread message
-  log_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Thread ID where log lives
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
-
-  PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content),
-  INDEX idx_user_guild (user_id, guild_id),
-  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
-)
-```
-
-#### `report_logs`
-
-```sql
-report_logs (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  simplified_content TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Links to report_cache_entries
-
-  -- Report details (from Report interface)
-  reason TEXT NOT NULL,                 -- ReportReasons enum
-  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Original reported message ID
-  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  message_content TEXT,                 -- Full original content
-  message_link TEXT,
-  staff_id TEXT,                        -- User ID who made report (nullable)
-  staff_username TEXT,
-  extra TEXT,
-
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-
-  FOREIGN KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
-    REFERENCES report_cache_entries(user_id, guild_id, simplified_content),
-  INDEX idx_cache_entry (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
-)
-```
-
-### Option B: Simplified Structure
-
-#### `user_report_groups`
-
-```sql
-user_report_groups (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  content_hash TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Hash of simplified content
-  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Main log message
-  log_thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,          -- Thread where discussions happen
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
-
-  UNIQUE (user_id, guild_id, content_hash),
-  INDEX idx_user_guild (user_id, guild_id),
-  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
-)
-```
-
-#### `individual_reports`
-
-```sql
-individual_reports (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  report_group_id UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES user_report_groups(id),
-
-  reason TEXT NOT NULL,
-  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  message_content TEXT,
-  message_link TEXT,
-  staff_id TEXT,
-  staff_username TEXT,
-  extra TEXT,
-
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  INDEX idx_report_group (report_group_id)
-)
-```
-
-## Questions to Workshop
-
-### 1. Content Grouping Strategy
-
-**Current**: Uses `simplifyString(message.content)` to group similar messages
-
-```typescript
-const simplifiedContent = simplifyString(message.content);
-```
-
-**Options:**
-
-- **A**: Store `simplified_content` as TEXT (exact match)
-- **B**: Store `content_hash` as deterministic hash
-- **C**: Remove grouping entirely, treat each message separately
-
-**What does `simplifyString` do exactly?** Need to check implementation.
-
-### 2. Foreign Key Strategy
-
-**Current**: Cache uses compound keys `${guildId}${userId}` + simplified content
-
-**Options:**
-
-- **A**: Composite PRIMARY KEY (user_id, guild_id, simplified_content)
-- **B**: UUID PRIMARY KEY with UNIQUE constraint on composite
-- **C**: Separate user_guild table with relationships
-
-### 3. Log Message Tracking
-
-**Current**: Each content group has one `logMessage` that gets edited
-
-**Questions:**
-
-- Is this the message in the user thread that gets updated?
-- Do we need to track the original notification message separately?
-- How does this relate to the new user thread system?
-
-### 4. deleteAllReported Implementation
-
-**Current**:
-
-```typescript
-allReports?.logs.map((l) => l.message.delete());
-```
-
-**This deletes the ORIGINAL reported messages, not the log messages**
-
-**Database needs:**
-
-- Store original `message_id` and `message_channel_id` for each report
-- Query all reports for a user/content group
-- Fetch and delete each original Discord message
-
-### 5. Escalation Context Storage
-
-**For persistent buttons, we still need:**
-
-#### `escalation_contexts`
-
-```sql
-escalation_contexts (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,              -- The reported user
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  mod_role_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+7 days')),
-
-  INDEX idx_thread (thread_id),
-  INDEX idx_expires (expires_at)
-)
-```
-
-## Recommended Approach (Option B + Escalation)
-
-```sql
--- Core report grouping (matches TTL cache structure)
-user_report_groups (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  content_hash TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Hash of simplified content
-  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,         -- Thread message that gets edited
-  log_thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,          -- User thread ID
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+20 hours')),
-  UNIQUE (user_id, guild_id, content_hash)
-);
-
--- Individual reports within each group
-individual_reports (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  report_group_id UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES user_report_groups(id),
-  reason TEXT NOT NULL,
-  message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Original Discord message to delete
-  message_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,     -- Where original message lives
-  message_content TEXT,                 -- For reference/display
-  staff_id TEXT,
-  staff_username TEXT,
-  extra TEXT,
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
-);
-
--- Button context for persistence
-escalation_contexts (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  thread_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  user_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  mod_role_id TEXT NOT NULL,
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-  expires_at DATETIME DEFAULT (datetime('now', '+7 days'))
-);
-```
-
-## Key Functions to Implement
-
-```typescript
-// Replace TTL cache functions
-export async function findReportGroup(

-**Questions:**
-
-1. Does this structure make sense for your use case?
-2. Should we keep the content grouping or simplify to per-message?
-3. Any other data we need to track for the buttons to work?

-# Simplified Schema Analysis - 2025-07-25
-
-## Proposed Simple Schema
-
-```sql
-reported_messages (
-  id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
-  reported_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Original Discord message ID
-  reported_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,        -- Where original message lives
-  reported_user_id TEXT NOT NULL,           -- Who sent the original message
-  guild_id TEXT NOT NULL,                   -- Which guild
-
-  log_message_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Mod-log entry Discord message ID
-  log_channel_id TEXT NOT NULL,             -- Thread/channel where log lives
-
-  reason TEXT NOT NULL,                     -- ReportReasons enum
-  staff_id TEXT,                            -- Who made the report (nullable for anon)
-  staff_username TEXT,
-  extra TEXT,                               -- Additional context
-
-  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
-
-  INDEX idx_reported_user_guild (reported_user_id, guild_id),
-  INDEX idx_reported_message (reported_message_id),
-)
-```
-
-## Analysis - Does This Work?
-
-### ✅ **Preserves Message Content**
-
-- Store `reported_message_id` → fetch content on-demand from Discord
-- No duplicate storage = cheaper
-- Content always fresh (handles edits/deletes gracefully)
-
-### ✅ **Handles Rate Limits Well**
-
-- **Moderator review**: Fetch on-demand as moderators click through
-- **Bulk operations**: Could batch if needed, but small scale
-
-### ✅ **Report Counting**
-
-```sql
--- Total reports for user
-SELECT COUNT(*) FROM reported_messages
-WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
-
--- Unique messages reported
-SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT reported_message_id) FROM reported_messages
-WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
-```
-
-### ✅ **Delete All Messages Implementation**
-
-```sql
--- Get all reported messages for user
-SELECT reported_message_id, reported_channel_id
-FROM reported_messages
-WHERE reported_user_id = ? AND guild_id = ?
-
--- Then: channel.messages.fetch(messageId).delete() for each
-```
-
-## Questions/Potential Issues
-
-### 1. **Content Grouping Loss**
-
-**Current behavior**: Similar messages grouped together, one log entry gets edited
-**New behavior**: Each report = separate log entry
-
-**Is this okay?** Might actually be cleaner - each report stands alone.
-
-### 2. **Message Deletion Edge Cases**
-
-**Scenario**: Original Discord message gets deleted before we can fetch it
-**Solutions**:
-
-- Graceful failure in `deleteAllReported`
-- Consider storing a backup content hash for critical cases
-
-### 3. **Rate Limit Batching**
-
-**For "delete all messages"**: Could hit rate limits with 20+ messages
-**Solutions**:
-
-- Batch delete operations
-- Add retry logic with exponential backoff
-- Consider per-guild rate limiting
-
-### 4. **Log Message Tracking**
-
-**Question**: Do we need to track which log messages to delete/edit?
-**Current**: `deleteAllReported` deletes ORIGINAL messages, not log messages
-**Answer**: Probably not needed for this use case
-
-## Revised Implementation
-
-### Database Functions
-
-```typescript
-// Replace TTL cache entirely
-export async function recordReport(data: {
-  reportedMessageId: string;
-  reportedChannelId: string;
-  reportedUserId: string;
-  guildId: string;
-  logMessageId: string;
-  logChannelId: string;
-  reason: ReportReasons;
-  staffId?: string;
-  staffUsername?: string;
-  extra?: string;
-}): Promise<void>;
-
-export async function getReportsForUser(
-  userId: string,
-  guildId: string,
-): Promise<ReportRecord[]>;
-
-export async function deleteAllOriginalMessages(
-  userId: string,
-  guildId: string,
-): Promise<void>;
-```
-
-### Replace TTL Cache Functions
-
-```typescript
-// OLD: queryReportCache(message)
-// NEW: getReportsForMessage(messageId, guildId)
-export async function getReportsForMessage(messageId: string, guildId: string) {
-  return db
-    .selectFrom("reported_messages")
-    .selectAll()
-    .where("reported_message_id", "=", messageId)
-    .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
-    .execute();
-}
-
-// OLD: queryCacheMetadata(message)
-// NEW: getUserReportStats(userId, guildId)
-export async function getUserReportStats(userId: string, guildId: string) {
-  const [totalReports, uniqueMessages] = await Promise.all([
-    db
-      .selectFrom("reported_messages")
-      .select(db.fn.count("id").as("count"))
-      .where("reported_user_id", "=", userId)
-      .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
-      .executeTakeFirstOrThrow(),
-
-    db
-      .selectFrom("reported_messages")
-      .select(db.fn.countDistinct("reported_message_id").as("count"))
-      .where("reported_user_id", "=", userId)
-      .where("guild_id", "=", guildId)
-      .executeTakeFirstOrThrow(),
-  ]);
-
-  return {
-    reportCount: Number(totalReports.count),
-    uniqueMessages: Number(uniqueMessages.count),
-    // Could add uniqueChannels if needed
-  };
-}
-
-// OLD: deleteAllReported(message)
-// NEW: deleteAllReportedForUser(userId, guildId)
-export async function deleteAllReportedForUser(
-  userId: string,
-  guildId: string,
-) {
-  const reports = await getReportsForUser(userId, guildId);
-
-  await Promise.allSettled(
-    reports.map(async (report) => {
-      try {
-        const channel = await client.channels.fetch(report.reported_channel_id);
-        const message = await channel.messages.fetch(
-          report.reported_message_id,
-        );
-        return message.delete();
-      } catch (error) {
-        console.warn(
-          `Failed to delete message ${report.reported_message_id}:`,
-          error,
-        );
-      }
-    }),
-  );
-}
-```
-
-## Migration Strategy
-
-No migration is possible, because complete data loss occurs when deploying new code. The old data is ephemeral though so that's inevitable.

Subject: [PATCH 19/19] Add deletion tracking to prevent duplicate deletions of
 reported messages
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Implement database tracking of deleted messages to improve "delete all reported
messages" functionality and prevent attempts to delete already-deleted messages.

Database changes:
- Add deleted_at column to reported_messages table
- Add markMessageAsDeleted() function to flag deleted messages
- Update getUserReportStats() to exclude deleted messages from counts
- Add includeDeleted parameter to getReportsForMessage()

Code improvements:
- Refactor deleteAllReportedForUser() to eliminate antipatterns:
  * Remove dynamic imports in .map()
  * Use SQL DISTINCT instead of manual deduplication
  * Sequential processing to avoid Discord rate limits
  * Proper error handling and separation of concerns
- Update all message deletion points to mark messages as deleted:
  * Track command "Delete message" button
  * Automod spam deletion
  * "Delete all reported messages" escalation button

Features:
- Skip already deleted messages in bulk operations
- Handle "Unknown Message" errors gracefully
- Maintain accurate user statistics excluding deleted content
