Report

In Discord, Vector sometimes outputs @username text, but Discord does not recognize it as a mention (no highlight, no notification).

Example thread/message:
https://discord.com/channels/1192313062041067520/1492645283002318898/1493405419031236749

Reported by: twilsonco (Discord user id: 564270044599812096)

Expected

Vector mentions should be real Discord mentions so users get notified.

Actual

Rendered as plain text @name.

Likely cause

We are emitting @username instead of Discord mention tokens (<@USER_ID>), or mentions are being suppressed by allowed-mentions settings.

Fix

When intending to mention a specific user, send <@USER_ID> and ensure allowed mentions permit user mentions.
