Limitations

Discord platform limits#

• Bots cannot create servers; requests that need a new server are rejected.
• AETHON can only manage roles below its highest role and cannot edit roles managed by an integration.
• Bulk deletion only works for messages younger than 14 days.
• Backups contain structure and settings, not message history, thread contents, member role assignments, bans or webhook tokens. Restored channels and roles receive new IDs.
• Discord limits the size of a message, so long reports are split into several messages and long lists are paginated or shortened with "…and N more".
• Discord forms hold at most 5 inputs, so forms and ticket questionnaires have at most 5 fields.
• Discord interactions expire after 15 minutes, so the progress of long projects is posted as a normal message: AETHON needs View Channel and Send Messages in the progress channel.
• Slash command and option names are in English in every language; descriptions and choices are translated.
• Discord limits AutoMod rules per trigger type (for example, one spam rule per server); creating more fails.

Known limits of AETHON#

• Planning that was interrupted by a restart is marked failed and must be submitted again; execution, by contrast, resumes automatically.
• Approvals are bound to the current state of roles, channels and members. For other resources (webhooks, AutoMod rules, events, files…) they are bound to the exact operation but not to the resource's state.
• The number of tasks in one plan is limited; very large restores or rebuilds must be split into several requests.
• Rollback reverts what each operation can undo. Deleted channels lose their history; bans, kicks, sent DMs and other irreversible operations are reported as irreversible.
• Status monitors only check public http(s) addresses: private addresses are refused and redirects are not followed.
• A FREE account gets AETHON in one server: additional servers owned by the same user are marked limited and the agent refuses work there until the plan allows it (the bot itself stays in the server).
• Text written by the AI follows the server language, but its wording depends on the AI model.
