## Definitions

### `app.tempomusic.staff.banAccount`

**Type**: `procedure`

Permanently ban an account: all of its content disappears from the public read surface and no surface can lift the state. Escalating an active suspension replaces it. Requires the `superAdmin` role. Writes an `accountBanned` audit row. Federation caveat: the ban blocks this DID — re-registration under a fresh DID is structurally possible in AT Protocol.

#### Input

**Encoding**: `application/json`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `did` | `string` (did) | Yes |  |
| `reason` | `string` | Yes |  |
| `notifyUser` | `boolean` | No | When true, persist a moderation notice addressed to the affected user (content author or account holder). Delivery is out of scope. |
| `closeAttachedReports` | `boolean` | No | Same semantics as suspendAccount: closes `open`/`underReview` reports against the ACCOUNT subject in the same transaction, with linked `reportClosedByCascade` audit rows. Reports against individual posts/replies stay open. |

#### Output

**Encoding**: `application/json`

| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `auditEntryId` | `integer` | Yes |  |
| `attachedReportsClosed` | `integer` | Yes | Number of account-subject reports auto-closed in this transaction. Zero when closeAttachedReports=false or none were open. |

#### Errors

- **Forbidden**: The caller is not a super-admin.
- **AccountAlreadyBanned**: The account is already banned.
