# Console
The **Console** is a privileged-actions surface for users who hold an admin, moderator, or expert role. If you don't see a "Console" pill in the header, this page doesn't apply to you.
## What it's for
- **Admins** manage user roles, review researcher credentials, watch sync failures and API quotas, audit every privileged action.
- **Moderators** triage flagged content and manage soft-bans (PR3).
- **Experts** review the validation queue scoped to their taxa and watch their per-taxon expertise score (PR2).
## How it's built
See [Module 24](https://github.com/ArtemioPadilla/rastrum/blob/main/docs/specs/modules/24-admin-console.md) for the implementation reference, and the [design doc](https://github.com/ArtemioPadilla/rastrum/blob/main/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-27-admin-console-design.md) for rationale.
