TS6 Manager Wiki

TS6 Manager

A web interface for administering TeamSpeak servers. This wiki explains how to actually use it, and why some things behave the way they do.

The README is the short version — what this is and how to get it running. Everything longer lives here.

Where do I go for what?

I want to… Go to
Install it on a fresh Linux server, step by step Install on Debian 13
Install it and connect my TeamSpeak server Getting Started — then same machine or elsewhere / rented
See my server's live stats, bandwidth and ping at a glance Dashboard
Hide, move or resize the tiles on my dashboard Dashboard → Arranging the tiles
See who is connected right now, and kick, ban, move or poke them Clients
Look up every client the server has ever seen, ban or delete a profile, change group memberships in bulk, export the list Client Database
Give someone access without making them an admin, or turn on two-factor authentication Users and Roles
Understand why a permission isn't doing what I expect Permissions
Create, copy, edit, move or delete channels, or give one an icon Channels
Work on server or channel groups, copy them between servers Server and Channel Groups
Automate something (welcome messages, temp channels, cleanup) Bot Flows
Play music or stream video into a channel Music Bots
Put a live server status banner on my website or forum Server Widgets
Manage bans, read complaints, send an offline message Moderation
Browse, upload and download the files of a channel Files
Manage the server's icon pool Icons
Hand someone admin rights, or set up a temporary server password Tokens and Passwords
Start, stop or create virtual servers, or change instance and server-wide settings Virtual Servers and Instance
Back up, restore or reset a virtual server Server Maintenance
Run any ServerQuery command, or watch what happens on a server live Query Console
Read the TeamSpeak server's own log Server Logs
See who signed in to the web interface and who joined a TeamSpeak server, from which address and country, who is trying passwords, and ban an address Connection Journal
Change the theme, the accent colour or the language Themes and Appearance
Find a setting, schedule restarts, or check whether an update is out Administration
Find out why something silently isn't happening Troubleshooting
Look up an environment variable Configuration
Put it behind a reverse proxy Deployment
Know what the interface loads and stores in a browser, or switch the storage notice Privacy and Hosting
Work on the code itself Development

If you read only one page, make it Tips and Pitfalls. It collects the things that cost people the most time — behaviour that looks like a bug but isn't, and a few places where TeamSpeak's own documentation is wrong.

What this fork is

It started as a fork of clusterzx/ts6-manager, because of a persistent video-streaming stutter that was never resolved upstream and a set of untriaged security findings. Both were fixed here, and it has grown well past that since — a bot flow engine, music bots with video streaming, SSO, two-factor authentication, role-based access, and a considerably deeper permission editor.

The Changelog documents every user-visible change in the order it shipped, including the reasoning behind the more unusual decisions.

The shape of the thing

Three containers, which is worth knowing when something breaks:

  • backend — talks to your TeamSpeak server, runs the bot flow engine and the music bots, holds the database
  • frontend — the web interface you log into
  • sidecar — a small Go service that handles WebRTC video streaming only. If you never stream video, it simply sits idle

Your TeamSpeak server itself is not part of this. It runs wherever it runs; this app connects to it over its query interface like any other admin tool would.

A note on permissions

TeamSpeak's permission system is the single most confusing part of administering a server, and it is where this app can help the most — but only if you understand the model. The Permissions page explains the five layers and, crucially, which one wins when two of them disagree — including the skip and negate flags, which are easy to miss and change the outcome completely.
