Birthday announces member birthdays in a channel and can assign a temporary birthday role for the day. It is opt-in per guild (disabled by default), bilingual (DE/EN) and integrates with the Web Dashboard (enable toggle, channel, role, language).

How it works

A background task runs every ~15 minutes. At the configured UTC hour it announces that day's birthdays once (guarded against duplicates). If a birthday role is set, it is kept in sync: granted to today's birthday members and removed from everyone else — self-healing across restarts. The bot needs Manage Roles (for the role) and Send Messages (in the channel).

Dashboard

Under a server's Guild Settings the module appears as a Birthdays panel with switches for Enabled, Channel, Birthday role and Language.
