Ozone: labeling service for Bluesky and other atproto apps

Ozone UI is a Next.js web application which talks directly to an Ozone “labeling service”. It generally requires moderator or administrator privileges to function.

Features:

• viewing, triaging, escalating, and actioning moderation reports
• takedowns and suspension of content and accounts
• creating and modifying labels on content and accounts
• viewing invite trees and disabling invite generation
• sending moderation emails, based on templates
• browsing app.bsky profiles and post threads, including some taken-down content
• quick-action modal (Ctrl-K)

See User Guide for a quick introduction for users of the interface.

Quickstart

You can self-host Ozone to run your own moderation service. Start with HOSTING.md. This will produce a Dockerized setup for hosting the Ozone UI and backend together.

See HACKING.md for local development requirements, like development with a local PDS instance, or working with un-released changes to the @atproto/api package.

Contributions

While we do accept contributions, we prioritize high quality issues and pull requests. Adhering to the below guidelines will ensure a more timely review.

Rules:

• We may not respond to your issue or PR.
• We may close an issue or PR without much feedback.
• We may lock discussions or contributions if our attention is getting DDOSed.
• We do not provide support for build issues.

Guidelines:

• Check for existing issues before filing a new one, please.
• Open an issue and give some time for discussion before submitting a PR.
• If submitting a PR that includes a lexicon change, please get sign off on the lexicon change before doing the implementation.
• Issues are for bugs & feature requests related to the TypeScript implementation of atproto and related services.
  • For high-level discussions, please use the Discussion Forum.
• Stay away from PRs that:
  • Refactor large parts of the codebase
  • Add entirely new features without prior discussion
  • Change the tooling or frameworks used without prior discussion
  • Introduce new unnecessary dependencies

Remember, we serve a wide community of users. Our day-to-day involves us constantly asking “which top priority is our top priority.” If you submit well-written PRs that solve problems concisely, that’s an awesome contribution. Otherwise, as much as we’d love to accept your ideas and contributions, we really don’t have the bandwidth.
