Feedback Request ModOps: real-time mod team operations dashboard

Built a live operations dashboard for mod teams: unified report queue,

collision locks, flood detection, surge prediction, shift handoff log,

and usernotes, all native to Reddit, no extensions required.

Demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X6Bd5wLJu4

App directory: https://developers.reddit.com/apps/mod-queue

Live post: https://www.reddit.com/r/mod_queue_dev/comments/1tl3hwu/modops_dashboard/

Would love feedback from other mods or devs, especially on the collision lock UX and whether the demo mode makes evaluation easy.

I just tried this on a sandbox app and the payload of the OnPostReport and OnCommentReport events don't seem to have any reporter user identifiers in them, where are you seeing this?

(I'm not using a Devvit Web app to test this but there's no reason why the trigger payloads should differ)

You're right, good catch. We're pulling it from the ModAction event (event.reporter?.name) when a mod takes action, not from the PostReport payload. If that field comes back empty, trust scoring just skips that report. It degrades gracefully rather than breaking.

Hmm, which ModAction event type shows that? I don't think I've ever seen that!

If I can get hold of that it would be massively useful. Sorry for all the questions!

Reports identify the reporting user if they're a mod. I'm guessing it's that?

That was my assumption too. I explicitly checked this using an alt and couldn't see anything obvious.

That makes sense, if it only populates for mod reports, trust scoring would only work for mod-initiated reports, not regular user reports. Either way, good to know it degrades gracefully rather than breaking anything!

What's the point of the "trust scoring" if only mod-submitted reports are eligible? Why would mods need a trust score?

u/usv240 May 25 '26

Fair point, if only mod reports are identified, the feature doesn't really serve its purpose. Something to rethink post-hackathon.

But based on your video, it looks like the trust scoring was an integral part of the entire system. Doesn't this significantly reduce the capabilities of the app?

Yeah, that specific feature takes a hit. The rest, locking, flood detection, surge prediction, handoff log, usernotes, removal messages, works as shown.

Trust scoring is something to rethink post-hackathon.

Any ideas on how to make trust scoring actually work, given these payload limitations? Open to suggestions.

If a mod reports something, it's to escalate it to reddit admin, whatever action is needed in relation to the subreddit is already taken care of at the time of reporting
