Meet ChatSentry, a super easy to use, yet incredibly effective and sophisticated chat & message filtration, control, and management system that seamlessly integrates with your server to add astoundingly smart filtration and protection against many kinds of chat/message abuse public servers are subject to, without interfering with players who are just playing your server as it should.

Composed of unique, powerful, custom detection logic and dynamically tuning checks that have been expertly engineered and rigorously trained, ChatSentry has incorporated top notch recognition abilities in to each and every check it offers that won't disappoint you.



Introducing intelligent dialogue awareness, capable of providing real time self tuning based off context prediction; a unique feature of ChatSentry allowing the plugin to truly understand the nature of your servers chat in ways other plugins have never been able to.

Through efficient and deep analysis of players messages, including speed and typing patterns, the plugin can intelligently recognize and block players trying to bypass or exploit its filters, whether by adding additional letters, symbols, numbers, etc. to their messages, stretching words, and so forth - just like a real human mod!

Not only does the plugin support filtration of chat and commands, but applicable modules also support signs, anvils, and books, for complete protection across all contexts of messages.

On top of this, many features include specially designed subchecks specifically designed to detect players using hacked clients and cheats to try and bypass checks, write in unicode based fonts, parrot other players, and more.


Say goodbye to those trolls who join just to cause havoc - ChatSentry will take care of them without hassle.

The plugin comes equipped with a fully decked out with an auto-punishment system that works to automagically deal with and punish players who excessively trigger the plugins filters and restrictions within similar time frames.

Use the preconfigured setup, or create your own custom punishment rules per filter / restriction; set how many times a player must trigger particular filters before executing configured commands or actions on them, and more. Ex. after triggering the word and phrase filter 5 times within 24 hours mute the violator, after triggering it 10 times within 24 hours ban them.


As well as automated tools, ChatSentry provides your admins with useful utilities like instant chat clearing, panic mode which disables all chat from non-authorized users, a manual non-filter related warning system integrated with the auto punisher, a built in, highly detailed logging system with easy old log data purging to save detections & or blocked/modified actions, fully integrated with a custom in-game lookup engine that allows filtered searches so you can focus in on the results you're looking for, server lockdown mode which toggles a lock on your server that can either block unseen before/unknown players from joining, or everybody except those who are on the exemption list, and more tools.


ChatSentry offers tons of settings to allow you to fine tune the plugin to exactly what your server needs.

Don't feel like going through each setting? You're in luck! Virtually everything comes pre-configured to what's recommended for most servers, allowing you to spend as little or as much time as you want setting things up. Simply drop ChatSentry into your plugins folder, enable the core modules/checks you'd like, and let it do the rest of the heavy lifting for you.

Don't worry, you won't have to figure out ridiculously complex and confusing configurations.

The features that make up ChatSentry are organized throughout individual modules/components within the plugin for maximum organization. All individual protection modules act to serve a particular purpose to help you best fine tune the plugin for your server.

Modules that begin with intelligent utilize ChatSentry's unique detection logic, advanced code architecture and algorithms to detect similarities between words & and recognize players trying to combat or exploit the filters. Or - they are just simply intelligent in the sense that they are incredibly sufficient in comparison to plugins offering a similar feature.
‌
Here are some key points to remember:‌

• Any module can be disabled, or modified to best fit your servers needs.
• All modules can be applied to commands as well as chat.
• Each module comes with it's own set of unique settings and options so you can fine tune the module to get exactly what you're looking for out of it and help your server with what it needs most. However, the configurations come almost completely configured, so you don't have to change a lot of settings if you don't want to.
• Any module or restriction can be bypassed via permissions. See the permissions wiki page for more information.

Hyper smart, expertly engineered checks
With ChatSentry, you'll notice a mind blowing decrease in the amount of false positives players experience, and a huge increase in the detection and blocking success rates compared to a typical filter plugin.

Easy to understand configurations
While complex internally, ChatSentry is designed to be as simple to use as possible. You won't have to spend time learning complicated config setups to get things working -- ChatSentry will do all the complicated and tedious work behind the scenes for you.

Ultra lightweight & efficient
ChatSentry has been programmed from the ground up to conduct its tasks super efficiently - even when processing tons of messages quickly, there is virtually no performance cost on your server.

Covers all bases
Applicable modules support filtration of not only chat and commands, but signs, anvils, and books, for complete protection across all contexts of messages.

Frequent updates and additions
ChatSentry is constantly evolving. New feature updates, optimizations, and bug fixes are released regularly. This is full coverage for your server, forever.

Smart updaters for configs, file structure, and jar
ChatSentry automatically ensures any new config settings are added and old config settings are removed, all while preserving your current settings. In addition, the plugins file structure will be auto updated if necessary.
‌
Don't stress over mistakes in your configs. The plugin detects when there's malformed yml, prints what's incorrect, and stops loading the file to prevent it being reset unlike many other plugins.

‌
If your plugin (jar) version of ChatSentry is ever outdated, you will be notified so you can update to the latest version and make use of new features and fixes and more as soon as they're available.

Complete customization
Each module comes with it's own subset of settings that can be adjusted to work with your server exactly how you want it. Don't want a specific feature? Just turn it off. Don't like a message? You can change it.

Supports legacy versions
Use ChatSentry on Spigot, Paper, CraftBukkit & BungeeCord servers on any version between 1.8 and 1.18+

Admin Notifier
Notifies admins real-time when a module is triggered with detailed information, allowing them to know when to take action if necessary.

Discord Notifier
Sends Discord notifications via webhooks when modules flag a message or action, players are manually or automatically warned, warnings are pardoned, autowarns expire, and when the Auto Punisher punishes a player.

Intelligent Auto Punisher
Automatically runs punishment commands on players who excessively trigger modules within a defined time frame.

Intelligent Spam Blocker
Prevents players from repeating the same or similar messages over and over within a short period of time.

The more times a player attempts to repeat a message when it's already being blocked, the longer before they will be able to repeat themselves again, creating a dynamic and infinitely expanding block period that will disallow spam bots trying to repeat the same messages over and over for long durations of time.

Able to detect bots/players appending random sequences of numbers and other characters to their messages to try and evade the filter.

Intelligent Chat Cooldown
Controls how quickly players can send messages and configured or all commands within a defined time frame.

Intelligent Anti Chat Flood
Prevents or intelligently modifies the use of excessive repeated characters and very long "words" without interfering with players using 'expressive' chat.

Unicode Remover
Removes non US-ASCII (US keyboard) characters in chat messages and commands to prevent alphanumeric lookalike unicode characters from being used to bypass filters & modules.

Has the option to use a compatibility mode that only blocks unicode used by hacked clients - blocking virtually all alphanumeric lookalike unicode supported by MC while allowing other languages in chat, commands, signs, anvils, and books (additional check contexts can be disabled).

Intelligent Cap Limiter
Limits the use of excessive capital letters in messages without interference of messages using proper grammar. Can auto-set the message to lowercase or blocks it entirely. Player names are ignored.

Intelligent Anti Parrot
Prevents players using hacked clients to automatically copy ("parrot") other players chat messages. Also prevents the same (non-generic) message from be said by multiple players within a short time frame.

Able to detect bots/players appending random sequences of numbers and other characters to their messages to try and evade the filter.

Intelligent Chat Executor
Modifies and or performs actions triggered by defined chat messages/commands using simple or complex matching techniques.

Anti Statue Spambot
Prevents joining players abilities to send messages or commands until they move in order to protect against basic artificially controlled spam bots. Has an optional command whitelist.

Anti Join Flood
Prevents more than a defined amount of players joining every minute to prevent bot join flooding to lag, spam, & or crash the server.

Anti Relog Spam
Prevents players excessively relogging in short periods of time to flood chat. Uses a dynamically increasing cooldown to effectively combat excessive relogging without affecting players who are relogging reasonably.

Anti Command Prefix
Prevents players using prefixed commands to get around filters and discover potential sensitive server information like the plugins. Ex. /minecraft:me instead of /me.


Optionally integrates with the Command Spy module; when a command is modified/a prefix is removed, it will appear crossed out in the command spy notification.

Auto Grammar
Converts players' messages to use proper capitalization, periods, and correct typos in chat and configured or all commands.

Command Spy
Shows players real-time commands to admins. Commands can optionally be whitelisted or blacklisted.
