Give GrimAC alerts to one observer without granting exemptions An anticheat observer needs to read alerts without bypassing checks or gaining configuration access. Separate the alert permission from exemption permissions before assigning a monitoring role. Follow the procedure Check the installed Grim version and its Permissions reference. Identify grim.alerts for alert access and distinguish it from debug, verbose and configuration permissions. Create a limited observer group in your permission manager. Grant only the documented alert capability and inspect inherited groups for exemptions such as grim.exempt or grim.disabled. Use a non-operator test observer and the documented /grim alerts control. Confirm the account can enable or disable its own supported alert view. Observe genuine existing test activity or a maintainer-supported diagnostic example. Do not encourage players to use a cheating client on production to manufacture evidence. Confirm an ordinary player without the observer role does not receive staff alerts. Review what alert messages disclose before allowing screenshots in public channels. Check that the observer cannot reload configuration or exempt itself. Record where alerts are expected to appear and who should review them before taking moderation action. Check the result The observer receives the permitted alert stream and remains subject to normal checks. A quiet period does not prove alert delivery is broken; record the toggle result and verify against a known diagnostic event when available. Alerts are evidence to review, not automatic proof of cheating. If the result is wrong If alerts are absent, inspect the role’s effective node, personal alert state and current punishment configuration. If alerts reach ordinary users, withdraw the unintended grant immediately. Avoid broad administrative permissions or exemption nodes as a way to fix a missing monitoring feature.
