Starting Over (Rework)

If something went wrong with the setup, or you want to completely reconfigure JSD, the /rework-jsd command lets you start fresh.

What rework does

Running /rework-jsd (admin only):

1. Deletes JSD-created categories: all categories and channels JSD built are removed
2. Deletes JSD-created roles: the jail role and any other roles JSD created
3. Clears guild config: all settings (roles, channels, timezone, DM template) are wiped
4. Leaves case history intact: past cases are preserved for audit purposes

What is NOT affected

• Case history: all past jail, release, and appeal records remain in the database
• Channels and roles you created yourself: these are only unlinked from JSD, not deleted
• Member data: no member information is removed

When to use rework

• Setup went wrong and you need to start over
• You want to change the jail role or mod role
• Channel structure is broken and re-running /setup does not fix it
• You are migrating to a new server configuration

How to rework

1. Run /rework-jsd as an administrator
2. Confirm the action in the confirmation prompt
3. JSD deletes its created resources and clears config
4. Run /setup to configure the server again

After rework

Once rework is complete:

1. Run /setup to go through the wizard again
2. Choose new roles, channels, timezone, and DM template
3. Use Quick setup if you want the defaults
4. Test with a willing staff member to verify everything works

Important notes

• Rework is irreversible for the created resources (categories, channels, roles)
• Case history is preserved, so you can still look up past cases
• The bot does not need to be restarted after rework
• Admins only; jail mods cannot run this command
