Levi

Levi is a Discord music bot built for servers that want dependable voice playback without bloat. It uses slash commands, a per-server queue, and yt-dlp so you can play from YouTube, playlists, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, and other sources yt-dlp supports — not just single links.

What you can do

• /play — paste a URL, playlist, or search term; tracks queue automatically if something is already playing
• Playback controls — /pause, /resume, /skip, /stop
• Queue management — /queue (paginated), /shuffle, /remove, /clear
• Loop modes — /loop off|track|queue
• History — /previous rewinds through what was recently played
• Live feedback — /nowplaying with a progress bar
• Volume — /volume 0–200 adjusts mid-track
• Voice — /join and /leave when you need manual control

Everything runs through Discord’s modern slash-command UI — no message-content intent required.

Built for real deployments

Levi is written in TypeScript with discord.js and @discordjs/voice, streaming audio via yt-dlp and ffmpeg. It’s designed to run reliably on everyday hardware, including Raspberry Pi and Linux servers, with optional pm2 process management for always-on hosting.

Under the hood, each server gets its own queue and voice connection, with a tested state machine for play/skip/previous/loop behavior. The project includes unit tests, integration tests against yt-dlp, linting, and a strict dependency policy for safer installs.

Good fit if you want

• A focused music bot, not a giant multipurpose suite
• YouTube search + URL + playlist support
• Sensible queue controls and loop/history behavior
• Something you can self-host and trust on a Pi or VPS

Invite Levi, join a voice channel, run /play, and your server is listening.
