Automatically catch & remove spam bots by monitoring a dedicated “#honeypot” channel!

Quick Setup

1. Invite the bot to your server with appropriate permissions (Ban Members, Manage Channels, etc).
2. The bot will create a #honeypot channel on join, or you can set it up with /honeypot.
3. Configure the admin log channel and action (kick or ban) using the /honeypot command.
4. Ensure the bot’s highest role is above any self-assignable (color/ping) roles.
5. Any user posting in the honeypot channel will be banned or removed, and the action will be logged.

Info: Kick is default and is a softban (bans & unbans) so Discord deletes their immediate messages

Why use a Honeypot Bot?

Spammers and compromised accounts often target all channels at once, especially from accounts already inside your server. This bot makes it easy to automatically spot and remove these accounts. When someone posts in the honeypot channel, the bot acts immediately - removing them and deleting their messages before they can spread spam further. This saves you and your moderators time, reduces spam exposure to your community, and keeps your server running smoothly.
