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

1. 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
2. Place config.json next to the .exe and fill in your values (see below)
3. 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.
