~log-channel CHANNEL_ID

Accepted alias.

~log channel CHANNEL_ID

Accepted expanded form.

Control moderation scope

~exclude CHANNEL_OR_CATEGORY_ID

Exclude a channel or category from automatic moderation.

~include CHANNEL_OR_CATEGORY_ID

Return it to scope.

Understand the boundary

Exclusions control normal automatic-moderation scope. Edited-message checks, gateway events or audit logging may follow different paths, so a server should test both intervention and visibility for sensitive channels.
