🛡️ String Guardian Discord Bot

Protects sensitive strings and logs access in Discord

String Guardian is a serverless Discord bot that protects sensitive messages (like server IPs, connection strings or passwords) behind a reveal button, with logging to track who accessed them.

👉 Add String Guardian to your server (Privacy Disclaimer)

✨ Features:

• 🔐 Protect sensitive messages behind a reveal button
• 👁️ Track who viewed your strings, with timestamps
• ⚡ Simple /string command for posting protected content
• 🔔 Optional role pings to alert the right users
