Configured channels do not exist in server: [('rule_alerts', 1386490058739290182)].

This warning is raised here https://github.com/python-discord/bot/blob/f0e4d45cb30208c35fa55372e15ea524ea573123/bot/exts/backend/config_verifier.py#L16-L32

Seemingly because it is not actually a channel https://github.com/python-discord/bot/blob/f0e4d45cb30208c35fa55372e15ea524ea573123/bot/constants.py#L92-L93

This is pretty minor, the easiest solution is probably to add a special case to ignore this constant in the config verifier.

Is this not being worked on? I am willing to take it up.

If we somehow map rule-alerts to be a thread attached to channel mod-alerts, this could be both checked, validated its in the right channel, and used in botstrap.

I'm thinking that mirroring the existing Webhook/Webhooks configuration makes sense for this.
