- Adds fyne.io/systray with a programmatic monkey face icon and Quit menu item - Logs to discord-lobby-mute.log next to the exe so startup errors are visible without a console window - Windows now uses raw Win32 RegisterHotKey in a locked goroutine instead of golang.design/x/hotkey, avoiding a deadlock where systray and the hotkey library both try to own the main thread message loop - Build with: GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -ldflags "-H windowsgui" -o discord-lobby-mute.exe .

discord-lobby-mute
Runs in the system tray as a console app. Press a configurable global hotkey to toggle server-mute for everyone in a Discord voice channel.
Setup
- Create a bot at https://discord.com/developers/applications
- Enable Server Members Intent under Privileged Gateway Intents
- Grant the Mute Members permission when inviting it to your server
- Place
config.jsonnext to the.exeand fill in your values (see below) - Run
discord-lobby-mute.exe
config.json
{
"token": "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN",
"guild_id": "YOUR_SERVER_ID",
"channel_id": "YOUR_VOICE_CHANNEL_ID",
"keybind": "ctrl+shift+m",
"exempt_users": ["YOUR_DISCORD_USER_ID"]
}
exempt_users is optional. Any user IDs listed there will never be muted. Add your own ID to exclude yourself when pressing the keybind.
To get IDs: enable Developer Mode in Discord settings, then right-click a server, channel, or user and choose Copy ID.
Keybind format
modifier+modifier+key — modifiers come first, key last. Case-insensitive.
Examples: ctrl+shift+m, alt+f9, ctrl+alt+delete
