CTF-cord v2

A Discord bot for all your CTF management needs.

Features

• CTF details scraped from CTFtime
• Private channels with reaction-based permission management

• Scheduled events
• Creation of challenge threads

Limitations

The server owner can always see the channel even when not opting-in, due to having administrator privileges. If this is an issue, server ownership can be transferred to a non-participating third-party.

Data privacy

For privacy purposes, you should host an instance of the bot for your own team. You can create a Discord application from the Discord developer console, and create an invite with the required permissions to add it to your server.
