## Moderation Dashboard
Access at `/admin/moderation`. Shows:
+ - **Reports queue** — content flagged by members, sorted by status (new, in-progress, resolved)
+ - **File reports** — flagged file uploads
+ - **Mod actions log** — recent moderation actions by all moderators
- **Reports queue.** Content flagged by members, sorted by status (new, in-progress, resolved)
- **File reports.** Flagged file uploads

+ ### Report Workflow
---
## Report Workflow
1. Member reports content (post, thread, file, photo, listing, user)
2. Report appears in the moderation queue with reason and details
+ 3. Moderator reviews and takes action:
+ - **Dismiss** — no action needed, close the report
+ - **Warn** — issue a warning to the user
+ - **Delete** — remove the reported content
+ - **Suspend** — temporarily restrict the user
+ - **Ban** — permanently ban the user
+ - **Shadow ban** — user can still post but content is invisible to others
+ 4. Reporter receives notification of the outcome
3. If AI moderation assist is enabled, the platform drafts a recommendation in the background
4. Moderator reviews. If an AI recommendation is present, the moderator sees the recommendation, the reasoning, and any drafted member-facing messages
5. Moderator takes action:
- **Dismiss.** No action needed, close the report
- **Warn.** Issue a warning to the user
- **Delete.** Remove the reported content
- **Suspend.** Temporarily restrict the user
- **Ban.** Permanently ban the user
- **Shadow ban.** User can still post but content is invisible to others
6. Reporter receives notification of the outcome
+ ### Content Filters

## AI moderation assist
The AI Community Manager can draft a recommended action on every report. Enable via the `ai_cm_moderation` sub-flag at `/admin/community-manager/settings`.
The AI never acts on its own. Every recommendation lands in the queue for you to approve, edit, or reject. See [AI Community Manager](/know/admin-automation-engine) for full detail.
The AI button on `/admin/moderation` shows up on reports where the AI has produced a draft. Click to see:
- Recommended action (dismiss, warn, hide, suspend, escalate)
- Reasoning paragraph
- Any drafted member-facing messages
Click Approve and the action runs. Click Reject and the queue closes that AI draft.
---
## Content Filters
Global content filters at `/admin/content-filters`:
+ - **Filter groups** — organize filters by purpose (spam, slurs, etc.)
+ - **Regex patterns** — match against post content on save
+ - **Auto-actions** — block, flag, or log matches
- **Filter groups.** Organize filters by purpose (spam, slurs, etc.)
- **Regex patterns.** Match against post content on save
- **Auto-actions.** Block, flag, or log matches
+ ### Escalation
Filters run before the post is saved, so blocked content never enters the database.
+ Moderators can escalate issues to platform administrators when they need higher-level intervention. Escalations appear in the platform-admin escalation queue at `admin.mobieus.io/escalations`.
---
+ ### Public Moderation Log
## Escalation
Tenant Admins can escalate a report to the Mobieus platform team when an issue needs higher-level intervention. Moderators do not escalate directly — they ask a Tenant Admin to escalate on their behalf.
---
## Public Moderation Log
A sanitized, read-only log of moderation actions at `/mod/public-log`. Shows action type, moderator name, and timestamp. Does not expose IPs, emails, or free-text details.
---
## Audit log
Every moderation action writes to the audit log at `/admin/audit`. Filter by actor or by action type to investigate any decision.
