Discord moderation appeal intake and recommendation

Handles the other side of moderation: appeals. When a member contests a sanction via a webhook-backed appeal form, the agent retrieves the original decision and rationale, reads the member's argument, and drafts a recommendation — uphold, reduce, or reinstate — with reasoning that references the original case. A moderator makes the final call.

Use it when appeals are piling up and each one requires digging through old threads to reconstruct what happened. This bundles the original case and the new argument into one reviewable recommendation, keeping appeals consistent and fast without auto-reversing any human decision.

1. 1An appeal form submission hits an HTTP webhook, triggering the run.
2. 2The agent looks up the original moderation case and rationale tied to the member.
3. 3It reads the appeal text and weighs it against the recorded violation.
4. 4Logic separates clearly out-of-policy appeals from those with merit.
5. 5The agent drafts an uphold/reduce/reinstate recommendation with reasoning.
6. 6It posts the recommendation to a Discord moderator review thread for sign-off.
