All dependent on the implementation. As said in other comments, the design I have in mind is letting community mods define the automod’s behaviour in their community by writing scripts in a language like Lua in a sandboxed environment.

Automatic comment replies based on keywords or key phrases.
Basically, if a comment contains a specific string, the automod would reply with a corresponding string, configurable by the community moderators.

Can it cause comma splices and other more-than-regex criteria to trigger deletion or rejection?
