Reminders

Members set reminders with /remind-me and Cloudy pings them at the right time. The dashboard only sets the boundaries; the reminders themselves are created by members.

Duration limits

Minimum duration

0–86400 seconds (24 h) · default 5

The shortest time ahead a reminder can be scheduled for. The default of 5 seconds exists so /remind-me 1 second does not fire before the confirmation message renders.

Raise it if members are using reminders as a chat toy rather than a tool.

Maximum duration

1–3650 days (10 years) · default 365

The furthest ahead a reminder may be scheduled.

Behaviour

Max active per user

0–1000 · default 0 (Unlimited)

How many pending reminders each member may have at once. 0 means unlimited.

A limit of 10–20 is a reasonable guard against someone queuing hundreds of reminders. Members hitting the limit are told to cancel one first.

Max delivery attempts

1–20 · default 3

How many times the bot retries a reminder before giving up on it.

Delivery fails when the target channel was deleted, the bot lost permission to post in it, or the member's DMs are closed. Retries space out; after the last one the reminder is dropped rather than retried forever.

Three is right for transient failures. Raising it does not help with permanent ones — a deleted channel stays deleted.

Commands

Behaviour notes

• Reminders are per member and per server. A member cannot see or cancel anyone else's.
• Changing the limits does not affect reminders that already exist — a reminder scheduled 400 days out still fires after you lower the maximum to 365.
• Disabling the plugin stops delivery. Re-enabling resumes it; reminders whose time passed while it was off fire on the next check.
• Resetting the server on Server defaults deletes every pending reminder.
