Agent09 / Vortex

The platform was rebranded from Agent47 to Agent09 on May 19, 2026. The bot, code base, infrastructure, accounts, balances, subscriptions, and command set are unchanged — only the public-facing name has been refreshed. All previous URLs continue to resolve and all license keys, payment records, and verification sessions issued under the Agent47 name remain valid under Agent09. No action is required on your part.

Yes. The Personal VIP plan is tied to your individual Discord account and follows you across every Vortex-enabled server. It grants 2× XP and coin gain, an animated VIP badge, a custom status line, priority queue on AI and OSINT commands, a personal AI memory that persists across servers, and access to a VIP-only support channel. No server-owner permission is required. Subscribe at vortexdq.com/premium.

A network is a private mesh that links up to ten of your Discord servers — and, optionally, your Telegram chats — into one logical community. Linked servers can share a designated chat channel (cross-server chat, not platform-wide global chat), broadcast announcements with a single command, propagate moderation actions (a network-ban applies everywhere), and maintain a unified warning history and audit log. Every byte exchanged between linked servers is encrypted with AES-256-GCM via a per-network key that is generated on subscription activation and never leaves the bot's database. Subscribe at vortexdq.com/premium.

Each network has its own master encryption key (256 bits, Fernet-formatted), generated using secrets.token_bytes at subscription activation. The key is stored only in the bot's database under RLS, never exposed to the network owner or to other tenants. Every bridged message carries a per-message nonce that is checked against a monotonic counter and a UNIQUE constraint on the audit table, preventing replay. Decryption is performed inside the bot process for each delivery; ciphertext is what flows between servers.

A network-ban issued via !netban <user_id> propagates as a moderation event to every linked server with the moderation bit enabled. Each linked server can choose to ignore network moderation by clearing that bit on its link. All events are written to the network audit table and to each affected server's local moderation log. Lift a network-ban by re-running the inverse command in any linked server with appropriate permissions; the network propagates the inverse event.

Yes — provided you (the network owner) own the Telegram chat and have linked it via the supported command. The bridge respects per-link event masks, so for example a Telegram group can receive announcements but be excluded from cross-server chat. End-to-end encryption applies uniformly to both platforms.

Server tiers (Core / Plus) are purchased by a server administrator and unlock features on that specific server for every member. Personal VIP is purchased by an individual user and applies to that user across every Vortex-enabled server. They stack: a Personal VIP in a Plus-tier server enjoys both sets of perks. Network is a third, separate purchase that lets a server owner bind multiple of their servers together.

Server Core is $3.99 / month, server Plus is $8.99 / month, personal VIP is $6.99 / month, and the Server Network (Cross-Platform Bundle) is $14.99 / month. All prices are quoted in USD pre-tax. Applicable sales tax, VAT, or GST is calculated and added at checkout based on your billing address. Annual billing is available on every plan and applies a 20% discount on the pre-tax subtotal.

Sales tax, value-added tax (VAT), and goods-and-services tax (GST) vary by jurisdiction and are not under our control. Showing pre-tax prices is required by U.S. consumer-protection conventions and is also more transparent: the line items on your invoice cleanly separate what we receive (the subscription) from what is remitted to your local tax authority. The total including tax is shown on the checkout review screen before you commit.

Yes. From your wallet settings inside the dashboard, you can flip a subscription from monthly to annual or vice-versa. The change takes effect at the next renewal — no proration or refund is issued for the current period, because the active billing window is already paid in full. Lifting from monthly to annual locks in the 20% discount immediately on the new term.

The base bot is free forever and includes the majority of features. We do not currently run automatic trial windows for paid tiers because trial abuse cycles undermine ongoing subscriber pricing. Promotional codes, partner offers, and limited-time waivers are issued periodically and announced exclusively on the Justchilling Discord server.

PayPal, debit and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover) via PayPal's checkout, and cryptocurrency via our self-hosted BTCPay Server (BTC, LTC, DOGE, ETH, SOL). Bank transfer and SEPA direct debit are not currently supported. Detailed terms are documented in our Payment & Refund Policy.

Yes. The three purchases are independent and orthogonal. A user can hold Personal VIP while also being the owner of a Server Network subscription; the VIP perks apply to that user across every linked server, and the Network features apply to the owner's mesh of servers. A server can be on the Free tier and still appear in a Network, although Network owners typically pair it with Core on the receiving servers for the smoothest experience.

Cancellation stops future automatic renewals. Your subscription remains active and all paid features remain enabled through the end of the current billing period. We do not issue partial refunds for unused days; this is documented at length in the Payment & Refund Policy.

VIP perks are evaluated against your Discord user ID at the moment a feature is invoked. The bot consults a single canonical record (vip_status) and applies the matching multipliers, badges, and rate-limit allowances regardless of which server triggered the request. Server administrators cannot remove your VIP status nor opt-out of honouring it; they can, however, restrict the underlying feature (for example, a guild that disables the casino entirely will not show casino multipliers).

Subscriptions are bound to the Discord user ID associated at purchase time. If you recover the same Discord account, the entitlement reattaches automatically. If you transition to a new Discord account, contact support@vortexdq.com from the email registered to the original PayPal or BTCPay invoice; we can transfer entitlements only when ownership of the original purchase can be evidenced to a reasonable standard.

Yes. The dashboard is a responsive Next.js application and is tested on screens from 320 pixels wide upward. Some advanced grids — notably the cross-server network topology view and the analytics heatmap — switch to a stacked layout below 768 pixels. A native iOS and Android client is on the roadmap but has no committed shipping date.

Bug-fix releases are deployed within hours of validation. Feature releases occur on an approximately fortnightly cadence and are accompanied by an entry in the Latest Changes log. Major version bumps — for example the renaming from Agent47 to Agent09 — are signalled in advance on the Justchilling Discord server.

Yes for forum threads — the bot can post, moderate, and respond inside any forum-channel thread it has permission to view. Stage channels are supported for voice features (Vortex Talk and Radio) when the bot is invited on stage as a speaker; some moderation actions require an additional Manage Channels permission to take effect within a stage.

A subset of the dashboard API is reachable to authenticated subscribers under /dashboard-api/. Stable public endpoints are documented as they are promoted out of internal-only status; the Server Network webhook ingress is the first such endpoint and is available to Network subscribers immediately. Higher-volume integrations should contact support@vortexdq.com to provision a service-role key under a written rate-limit agreement.

AI assistance can suggest moderation actions (ban, mute, warn) based on automoderator signals, but every irreversible action requires explicit human confirmation by default. Server owners may opt-in to fully-autonomous moderation for specific severity tiers; that opt-in is logged in the audit trail and can be revoked at any time. We do not train external models on member messages, ticket transcripts, or voice transcripts.

After authorisation, run !setup in any channel where the bot has visibility. The setup wizard provisions baseline moderation, economy, and AI defaults, and surfaces additional configuration prompts inside the web dashboard at vortexdq.com/dashboard. No manual database editing is necessary.

Functionality scales with the permissions granted. Moderation requires Kick Members, Ban Members, and Manage Messages; the voice features require Connect and Speak; transcript persistence requires Manage Channels. We do not request Administrator by default — the bot operates under least-privilege.

Sensitive material is encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) and never transmitted in plaintext outside the encrypted transport channel. OAuth refresh tokens are rotated automatically; account sessions are HMAC-signed, IP-bound where enabled, and expire after a configurable interval. Failed authentication attempts are recorded for forensic review and rate-limited per-account and per-IP.

It is a side-effect of session rotation, which we perform periodically to limit the value of any single intercepted token. The settings page now consolidates rotated tokens for the same device into a single row labelled with the rotation count. Revoking a device drops every associated token atomically. Sessions inactive for more than thirty days are auto-revoked.

Voice audio is buffered in memory for the duration of an utterance, transcribed via on-device or vetted speech-to-text providers, and immediately discarded. Transcripts are persisted only when the channel is explicitly configured for transcript retention, and are accessible to authorised guild moderators only. Audio is never sold, shared with third parties, or used to train external models.

Card and PayPal transactions are processed via PayPal Holdings, Inc. Cryptocurrency settlements are processed via a self-hosted BTCPay Server instance — funds never traverse a third-party custodian. Refunds for fiat purchases follow the PayPal dispute window; cryptocurrency transfers are irreversible by design and not eligible for refund unless dictated by statutory consumer protection law. Full terms are documented in the Security & Bot Policy.

No. We do not integrate Google Analytics, Vercel Analytics, Sentry, Datadog, Mixpanel, Segment, AdSense, Facebook Pixel, or comparable trackers. Web fonts are self-hosted. Operational telemetry is internal-only, retained on infrastructure we control, and excluded from any third-party data-sharing agreement.

Submit a request via the contact channels listed in the Security & Bot Policy. Verified subject-access requests are honoured within 30 days in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Deletion requests cascade across all systems within the platform's perimeter; data legally required for billing or fraud-prevention is retained for the statutory minimum and then purged.

Key-claim sessions are bound to the originating IP address and user-agent fingerprint, require server-attested heartbeats after each advertisement, enforce per-segment minimum durations, refuse VPN and datacenter exit-nodes both at view-time and at completion-time, and rotate a per-page nonce that invalidates captured-and-replayed requests. License keys themselves are produced with a cryptographically secure pseudo-random generator.

Non-sensitive bugs may be reported via Discord or the support form. Security vulnerabilities should be disclosed responsibly to security@vortexdq.com. We acknowledge submissions within 72 hours, do not pursue legal action against good-faith researchers operating within the disclosure policy, and credit confirmed reporters in the release notes unless anonymity is requested.

Portions of the platform are open-sourced under permissive licenses; remaining components are reviewable under a non-disclosure arrangement at the operator's discretion. Independent third-party penetration testing is performed periodically; executive summaries are available on request to enterprise tier subscribers.

Live platform telemetry and the most recent advisory feed are available from the operator dashboard; incident write-ups, including root-cause analyses and remediation timelines, are published in the latest-changes log. Subscribers may opt in to email or webhook notifications for incidents affecting their account.

Yes — a self-hosting guide accompanies the open-source distribution. Self-hosted deployments are exempt from VortexDQ's commercial billing but must remain compliant with the upstream license terms and may not use the official "Vortex" or "Agent09" trademarks for redistribution. Hosting on infrastructure subject to comprehensive surveillance or under sanction is not supported.

A password is optional but strongly recommended. Linking Discord OAuth alone is sufficient to access dashboard features; adding a password unlocks email-based recovery, lets you sign in if Discord is temporarily unavailable, and is required to enable two-factor authentication via TOTP. Passwords are hashed with Argon2id and never stored in retrievable form.
