Discord Music Bot
- Self-Hosted Bot - Connect your own bot token (stored locally and encrypted via the OS keychain) and the app becomes a personal Discord music bot; a one-click OAuth invite link adds it to your servers
- Voice Playback - Stream YouTube audio - single videos or whole playlists - into voice channels through the same yt-dlp + FFmpeg pipeline, including the automatic cookie fallback for age-gated content
- In-App Control - Search or paste links, manage the queue, and drive playback: play / pause / skip / stop, shuffle, loop (off / track / queue), a live volume slider, and per-track removal
- Slash Commands -
/play,/search,/queue,/skip,/volume,/loop, and more, registered per-server for instant use; slash commands and the desktop UI drive the same player and stay in sync live - Multiple Servers - Manage several servers at once with a server switcher and an independent queue per server
- Role Gating - Optionally restrict slash-command playback to a chosen role (the host app always stays in control)
- Audit Log - Persistent, per-server activity feed of who did what - from the app or from Discord - stored locally on your machine
