# CrabeChannel - Temporary Voice Channels Bot

## What is CrabeChannel?

CrabeChannel is a lightweight and powerful Discord bot that allows your members to create their own temporary voice channels. When a user joins the hub channel, a personal voice channel is automatically created for them. When everyone leaves, the channel is deleted. No clutter, no maintenance.

---

## Why CrabeChannel?

- **Zero configuration needed** - One command to set up, and it works
- **Full control for users** - Every channel owner gets an interactive control panel with buttons
- **Multilingual** - Supports English, French, and Spanish. More languages coming soon
- **Lightweight** - No database required, no heavy dependencies, instant responses
- **Reliable** - Handles bot restarts gracefully by re-adopting active channels and cleaning up empty ones

## Features

### Automatic Channel Creation
Set a hub voice channel with `/sethub`. When any member joins it, a private voice channel is created instantly and they are moved into it. When the last person leaves, the channel is automatically deleted.

### Interactive Control Panel
Every temporary channel gets a control panel with buttons. The channel owner can:

- **Rename** - Change the channel name
- **Lock / Unlock** - Prevent or allow new users from joining
- **Hide / Show** - Make the channel invisible or visible to others
- **User Limit** - Set a maximum number of users (0 to 99)
- **Kick** - Remove a user from the channel
- **Block** - Ban a user from the channel (kick + prevent rejoin)
- **Unblock** - Remove a block from a user
- **Transfer** - Give ownership to another member in the channel
- **History** - View the full activity log of the channel

### Automatic Ownership Transfer
If the channel owner leaves but other members remain, ownership is automatically transferred to the next member. No channel is ever left without a manager.

### User Statistics
Track your activity with `/stats`:
- Total channels created
- Time spent in voice
- Kicks performed
- Blocks performed

You can also view other users' stats.

### Multilingual Support
Use `/language` to switch the bot language for your entire server. Currently supported:
- English (default)
- French
- Spanish

Every message, button, modal, and embed is fully translated.

## Quick Setup

1. Create a voice channel in your server (this will be the "hub")
2. Run `/sethub` and select that channel
3. Done. Join the hub channel to test it

That's it. No dashboards, no web panels, no complicated configuration.

---

## Permissions

CrabeChannel only requests the permissions it needs:
- **Manage Channels** - Create and delete temporary voice channels
- **Move Members** - Move users into their new channel
- **Mute / Deafen Members** - Allow channel owners to moderate
- **Connect** - Join voice channels to manage them
- **View Channels** - See channels to manage them
- **Send Messages** - Send the control panel embed

---

## Reliability

CrabeChannel handles edge cases that other bots ignore:
- **Bot restart?** Active channels are re-adopted, empty ones are cleaned up
- **Owner leaves?** Ownership transfers automatically
- **Rate limits?** All actions use ephemeral responses to minimize API calls
- **Errors?** Every interaction is wrapped in error handling so the bot never crashes silently

## Privacy

CrabeChannel stores minimal data per server:
- The hub channel ID
- The chosen language
- Per-user statistics (channels created, time in voice, kicks, blocks)

No message content is ever read or stored. No personal data is shared with third parties. Data is stored locally and can be deleted at any time by removing the bot from your server.
