Cleanstr - Nostr Content Moderation with OpenAI

Cleanstr is a Google Cloud Function node application designed to filter and moderate content from Nostr using OpenAI's moderation service. With the surge in user-generated content, maintaining the quality and safety of shared data is paramount. Cleanstr seamlessly takes in a pubsub feed of Nostr content, checks it, and generates Nostr events tagging the results.

Requirements

• Google Cloud Account
• Node.js v20+
• OpenAI API Key
• Nostr account

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

   git clone https://github.com/planetary-social/cleanstr.git
   cd cleanstr

2. Prerequisites

   • Install Dependencies with pnpm install

Usage

1. Testing Setup

   • Set a NOSTR_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable with the private key of a test nostr account used to publish moderation reports.
   • Run the tests with pnpm test to ensure everything is set up correctly.

2. Deployment to Google Cloud

   • Prepare Your Environment: Ensure the Google Cloud CLI (gcloud) is installed and configured with your account.
   • Set Environment Variables: NOSTR_PRIVATE_KEY for the reporting account private key, and OPENAI_API_CSV for your OpenAI API keys.
   • Deploy the Function: Use pnpm run deploy to upload Cleanstr to Google Cloud.
   • Post-Deployment: Cleanstr starts processing Nostr events and publishes moderation reports via NIP-56 on wss://relay.nos.social. You can change this relay to your own.

3. Integration with our Nostr Relay

   • If you don't want to host your own deployment you can use our relay. Add wss://relay.nos.social to your Nostr client's relay list.
   • Content flagged by Cleanstr is managed by this relay and marked as kind 1984 for prompt handling.
   • Following the Reportinator bot in your Nostr client is essential for proper integration with Cleanstr's moderation reports.
   • Your client should properly process kind 1984 in a similar way that https://nos.social does.
