 # Setting up Mjolnir (optional)
 
-The playbook can install and configure [Mjolnir](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir) for you.

-Mjolnir is a moderation tool for Matrix.
+The playbook can install and configure the [Mjolnir](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir) moderation bot for you.
 
 See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
 
+Note: the playbook does not currently support the Mjolnir Synapse module. The playbook does support another antispam module, see [Setting up Synapse Simple Antispam](docs/configuring-playbook-synapse-simple-antispam.md).

+## 3. Make sure the account is free from rate limiting
 
-TODO
+You will need to prevent Synapse from rate limiting the bot's account is not rate limited by Synapse. This is not an optional step. If you do not do this step mjolnir will crash. [Currently there is no Synapse config option for this](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6286) so you have to manually edit the Synapse database. Manually editing the Synapse database is rarely a good idea but in this case it is required. Please ask for help if you are uncomfortable with these steps.
+
+1. Copy the statement below into a text editor. 
 
 	```
-insert into ratelimit_override values ("@bot.mjolnir:DOMAIN", 0, 0);
+	INSERT INTO ratelimit_override VALUES ("@bot.mjolnir:DOMAIN", 0, 0);
 	```
 
-## Adjusting the playbook configuration
+1. Change the username (`@bot.mjolnir:DOMAIN`) to the username you used when you registered the bot's account. You must change `DOMAIN` to your server's domain.
+
+1. Get a database terminal by following these steps: [docs/maintenance-postgres.md#getting-a-database-terminal](docs/maintenance-postgres.md#getting-a-database-terminal)
+
+1. Connect to Synapse's database by typing `\connect synapse` into the database terminal
+
+1. Paste in the `INSERT INTO` command that you edited and press enter.
+
+You can run `SELECT * FROM ratelimit_override;` to see if it worked. If the output looks like this:
+
+```
+      user_id          | messages_per_second | burst_count
+-----------------------+---------------------+-------------
+ @bot.mjolnir:raim.ist |                   0 |           0`
+```
+then you did it correctly.
+
+## 5. Create a management room
+
+Using your own account, create a new room that you will use to manage the bot. This is the room where you will see the status of the bot and where you will send commands to the bot, such as the command to ban a user from another room.
+
+Once you have created the room you need to copy the room ID so you can tell the bot to use that room. In Element you can do this by going to the room's settings, clicking Advanced, and then coping the internal room ID. The room ID will look something like `!QvgVuKq0ha8glOLGMG:DOMAIN`.
+
+## 4. Adjusting the playbook configuration
 
 Add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` file (adapt to your needs):
 
+You must replace `ACCESS_TOKEN_FROM_STEP_2_GOES_HERE` and `ROOM_ID_FROM_STEP_5_GOES_HERE` with the your own values.
+
 ```yaml

 ## Usage
 
-TODO
+You can refer to the upstream [documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir) for additional ways to use and configure mjolnir. Check out their [quickstart guide](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir#quickstart-guide) for some basic commands you can give to the bot.
 
-You can also refer to the upstream [documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir).
+You can configure additional options by adding the `matrix_bot_mjolnir_configuration_extension_yaml` variable to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` file.
+
+For example to change mjolnir's `recordIgnoredInvites` option to `true` you would add the following to your `vars.yml` file.
+
+```yaml
+matrix_bot_mjolnir_configuration_extension_yaml: |
+  # Your custom YAML configuration goes here.
+  # This configuration extends the default starting configuration (`matrix_bot_mjolnir_configuration_yaml`).
+  #
+  # You can override individual variables from the default configuration, or introduce new ones.
+  #
+  # If you need something more special, you can take full control by
+  # completely redefining `matrix_bot_mjolnir_configuration_yaml`.
+  recordIgnoredInvites: true
