This release completes a full Components v2 rework across all user-facing bot messages and improves reliability for shard placement and reminder controls.
Highlights:
- Completed a full Discord Components v2 rework across all user-facing messages so commands, DMs, setup flows, announcements, polls, and admin responses now share one consistent card-style layout with clearer guidance and actions.
- Improved new-server shard assignment so CleanerBot now prefers stable, lower-load database shards using both guild volume and data-volume signals, with hard caps that prevent overloaded placement.
- Reward grace reminder DMs now include the same Mute this server and Why? controls as warning and inactive reminder DMs.
- Restored advisory hero images in staff advisory cards and DM copies when attachment permissions are available.
