## What it is
SourceMod is a server modification and scripting platform for games running on Valve's Source (Half-Life 2) engine. It provides a plugin system using the SourcePawn language plus built-in plugins for server administration, permissions, and map management.

## Use cases
- administer a TF2 or CS game server
- write custom plugins for a Source engine server
- add banning and permissions to a game server
- run votes and map rotations on a Source server
- script server-side game logic without C++
- hook game events and console commands

## When to choose
- you run a dedicated server for a Source engine game and need administration tools
- you want to extend server behavior with SourcePawn plugins
- you need fine-grained permissions, bans, and voting on a game server

## When to avoid
- you are modding games on engines other than Source
- you need client-side mods rather than server-side
- you want a modern general-purpose scripting platform unrelated to game servers

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
