+# StaffMsg Cog
+
+The StaffMsg cog is a secure and professional communication tool for server administrators and authorized staff. It provides a permission-controlled command for sending official Direct Messages (DMs) to server members, complete with an accountability log.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Features
+
+-   **Permission Controlled:** Access to the command is restricted to a specific, configurable role, ensuring only authorized staff can send official messages.
+-   **Form-Based Interface:** Uses a Discord Modal (pop-up form) for message composition, ensuring all DMs are sent in a consistent and professional format.
+-   **Accountability Log:** Automatically sends a copy of every sent DM to a private log channel, creating a crucial audit trail for staff actions.
+-   **DataManager Integration:** Logs a timestamp for every sent message, making it fully compatible with the `DataManager` cog for automatic data purging.
+-   **Hybrid Command:** The command works with both slash commands (`/smsg`) and your bot's prefix (`[p]smsg`).
+
+---
+
+## 2. Staff Workflow
+
+1.  A staff member with the authorized role runs the `/smsg <user>` command, optionally including a message.
+2.  If no message is included, the bot presents the staff member with a "Staff Message" pop-up form.
+3.  The staff member composes the message in the form and submits it.
+4.  The bot sends the message to the target user's DMs as a clean, professional embed.
+5.  Simultaneously, the bot sends a copy of the embed to the configured log channel, noting which staff member sent it and who it was sent to.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Admin Commands
+
+### `/smsg <user> [message]`
+
+Sends an official DM to a server member.
+
+-   **`user`**: The server member to send the message to.
+-   **`[message]`**: An optional message to send. If not provided, the composition form will open.
+
+**Prefix Version:** `[p]smsg <user> [message]`
+**Aliases:** `/staff`, `/staffmsg`
+
+### `/staffmsgset`
+
+The main command group for configuring the StaffMsg system. Requires `Manage Server` permissions.
+
+**Prefix Version:** `[p]staffmsgset`
+
+-   `/staffmsgset role <@role>`
+    -   Sets the role that is authorized to use the `/smsg` command.
+-   `/staffmsgset logchannel <#channel>`
+    -   Sets the private channel where copies of all sent DMs will be logged.
