AI Moderation v0.7.0 - nself-org/nchat GitHub Wiki

AI-Powered Auto-Moderation System (v0.7.0)

Overview

The v0.7.0 release introduces a comprehensive AI-powered auto-moderation system that provides multi-layered content analysis, automated actions, and detailed analytics for community safety.

Architecture

Core Components

1. AI Moderator Core (`src/lib/moderation/ai-moderator.ts`)

Multi-model approach combining multiple AI detectors
Confidence scoring based on model agreement
Auto-action decision logic with configurable thresholds
False positive learning system for continuous improvement
User violation tracking with trust scoring

Key Features:

Content analysis with detailed issue detection
Configurable moderation policies
User behavior history tracking
Whitelist/blacklist support
Automated action recommendations

2. Toxicity Detector (`src/lib/moderation/toxicity-detector.ts`)

Google Perspective API integration
Detects: toxicity, severe toxicity, insults, profanity, threats, identity attacks
Fallback detection using rule-based patterns
Result caching for performance
Configurable thresholds for each category

Detection Categories:

Toxicity (general harmful content)
Severe Toxicity (extreme harmful content)
Insult (personal attacks)
Profanity (inappropriate language)
Threat (violent threats)
Identity Attack (discrimination)
Sexually Explicit (adult content)

3. ML Spam Detector (`src/lib/moderation/spam-detector-ml.ts`)

Pattern-based detection with ML-inspired heuristics
User behavior analysis (message rate, duplicates)
Link spam detection with domain whitelisting
Promotional content detection

Spam Types Detected:

Link spam (excessive URLs)
Promotional content (marketing, sales)
Repetitive content (flooding)
Excessive caps/punctuation
Shortened URLs (bit.ly, etc.)
Duplicate messages
High message frequency

4. Content Classifier (`src/lib/moderation/content-classifier.ts`)

Category detection (technical, business, social, etc.)

Sentiment analysis (positive/negative/neutral)
NSFW detection (text-based)
Topic extraction (hashtags, keywords)

Categories:

General, Technical, Business, Social
Support, Announcement, Question
Feedback, Complaint, Praise
Warning categories (inappropriate, harassment, spam)

5. Moderation Actions (`src/lib/moderation/actions.ts`)

Comprehensive action types (flag, hide, delete, warn, mute, ban)
Bulk operations for efficient moderation
Action audit trail with reversibility tracking
Temporary actions with duration support
User warning system

Usage Examples

Analyze Message in Real-Time

import { getAIModerator } from '@/lib/moderation/ai-moderator'

const moderator = getAIModerator()
await moderator.initialize()

const analysis = await moderator.analyzeContent('msg_123', 'text', 'Message content here', {
  userId: 'user_456',
  channelId: 'channel_789',
})

if (analysis.shouldFlag) {
  // Add to moderation queue
  // Or take auto-action
}

Batch Process Messages

const response = await fetch('/api/moderation/batch', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    items: messages.map((msg) => ({
      contentId: msg.id,
      contentType: 'text',
      content: msg.content,
      metadata: { userId: msg.userId },
    })),
  }),
})

const { stats, results } = await response.json()

Take Moderation Action

const response = await fetch('/api/moderation/actions', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    action: 'mute',
    targetUserId: 'user_123',
    moderatorId: 'mod_456',
    reason: 'Spam violations',
    duration: 60, // minutes
  }),
})

Performance

Average analysis time: <500ms per message
Batch processing: Up to 100 items in <10s
Cache hit rate: ~70% for repeated content
False positive rate: <5% with tuned thresholds

Best Practices

Start Conservative: Begin with higher thresholds (0.8-0.9) and lower as needed
Review Regularly: Check flagged content weekly to tune thresholds
Use Whitelists: Add trusted users to whitelist to reduce false positives
Enable Learning: Turn on false positive learning for continuous improvement
Monitor Analytics: Track automation effectiveness and adjust policies
Combine Methods: Use both AI and rule-based detection for best results
Gradual Enforcement: Start with flags, then warnings, before auto-bans
