For server owners
Admin controls
Coral works out of the box the moment you add it. When you want to tune it, every feature is a slash-command toggle: mute a channel, turn features on or off, opt into trending auto-posts or idle games.
Who can run these
Admin commands are admin-only. On Discord you need the Manage Channels permission; on Telegram you must be a chat admin. /play is the exception: anyone can start a game where games are enabled. Changes take effect shortly (within about 5 minutes).
Every admin command at a glance
Coral is ready the moment you add it. Out of the box it cards tickers, answers Ask Coral, archives chat, and records intel. Most servers never change a thing. The full set of levers:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/silent on|off | Per-channel. Mute Coral’s $TICKER auto-replies in the current channel (slash commands + reactions still work). |
/ask-coral on|off | Server-wide. The conversational @-mention / /ask answers. Default on. |
/coral-archive on|off | Server-wide. Chat archiving (powers caller tracking + trending). Default on. |
/coral-intel on|off | Server-wide. Community intel signals. Default on. |
/trending-autopost [type] on|off | Per-channel, opt-in. Idle-fill trending cards when the channel is quiet. Types: tokens, list, tips. Default off. |
/games [type] on|off | Per-channel, opt-in. Idle games. Types: trivia, emoji, counting, hilo, ticker, wordle (or autoprompt). Default off. |
/play [game] | Anyone (not admin-only). Start a game in a games-enabled channel. |
/raid <x-link> … | Rally the community on an X post. See the Raids page for options. |
Telegram vs Discord naming
/ask_coral vs /ask-coral, /trending_autopost vs /trending-autopost. /games, /play, and /silent are the same on both.The basics
Quiet a noisy channel
/silent onmutes Coral's auto-replies in the current channel. Handy if another bot already cards tickers there. /silent off brings it back.Everything is a toggle
/ask-coral, /coral-archive, /coral-intel) are all on by default and reversible at any time.Trending auto-posts (opt-in)
Off by default. Run /trending-autopost on in the channel you want Coral to post in, and when that channel goes quiet Coral drops an idle-fill card. It posts to the channel you ran the command in; run it again elsewhere to move the target.
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/trending-autopost | Toggle all trending auto-posts on or off in this channel. |
/trending-autopost on|off | Enable or disable every card type. |
/trending-autopost <type> on|off | Toggle one card type: tokens, list, or tips.e.g. /trending-autopost list off |
Three card types, each toggleable:
- tokens. The default: a single trending token card, the bulk of the rotation.
- list.An occasional “Trending” top-list (at most a couple a day, only when there's fresh data).
- tips. An occasional Coral how-to card surfacing features like
$rand,/chart, and the card reaction buttons.
Idle games (opt-in)
Keep a slow channel alive
/games on in a channel turns on light games people can play solo or together: trivia, emoji guess, counting, hi-lo, guess-the-ticker, and a wordle. Anyone starts one with /play.| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/games | Toggle all games on or off in this channel. |
/games on|off | Enable or disable every game type. |
/games <game> on|off | Toggle one game: trivia, emoji, counting, hilo, ticker, or wordle.e.g. /games trivia on |
/games autoprompt on|off | Whether Coral offers a game when the channel is quiet. On by default once games are on. |
/play [game] | Anyone can start a game. Omit the game for a random enabled one. |
Examples
/games on turns on every game. /games wordle off turns just wordle off. /games autoprompt off keeps games on-demand only (no nudges). /play trivia starts trivia now.Full list of games and how each plays: Idle games.
