## What it is
Red is a fully modular, self-hosted Discord bot written in Python with built-in features for music, moderation, trivia, and stream alerts. Its functionality is extensible through community cogs (plugins) that can be enabled or disabled per server.

## Use cases
- moderate a discord server with automod and moderation commands
- play music in a discord voice channel
- run trivia games in my discord server
- self-host a customizable discord bot
- extend a discord bot with community plugins
- set up stream alerts for twitch in discord

## When to choose
- you want a feature-rich, self-hosted Discord bot you can customize with plugins
- you need moderation, music, and fun commands in one bot
- you want to write Python cogs to extend bot functionality

## When to avoid
- you want a hosted bot with zero maintenance
- you need a simple single-purpose bot where a lightweight script suffices
- you are building a bot framework from scratch rather than deploying a ready-made bot
