Venon Security slash commands
How do you show the XP leaderboard on Discord with the /leaderboard slash command?
/leaderboard belongs to the member category and is part of the Leaderboard module. An administrator or a moderator reaches for it when the action has to be fast, fully traceable in the logs and in line with Discord's permissions.

When to use it
Reach for /leaderboard when you need a repeatable administrative action without clicking through Discord's settings by hand. Venon Security watches the syntax, the permissions and the context, and the execution can later be tied to the moderation logs or the module's configuration.
Required permissions
The command requires the scope: Public. If Discord rejects the action, check the bot role's position in the hierarchy, the permissions on the channel and whether the module is enabled in the dashboard.

Missing permissions
Check whether the member and the bot both hold the required scope: Public.
Role hierarchy
For actions on members, the bot's role has to sit above the target's role.
Module disabled
If the command depends on a module, enable it in the dashboard and check the channel configuration.
