Busy Toggle

Open source: https://github.com/lenadweb/stream-deck-busy-plugin

Busy Toggle turns a key into a status light for your desk. Green means you are free and happy to chat. Red means you are busy: in a call, recording, or deep in focus. It's one press to switch, and the whole key changes colour, so it reads clearly from across the room.

What it does

One-press toggle. Tap the key to switch between free and busy.

Stream Deck+ dials. Push or tap the touchscreen to toggle. Turn the dial right for busy and left for free, whatever the current state.

Always in sync. Put it on several keys, pages or profiles and they all show the same status.

Remembers your status. Restart Stream Deck or your computer and your status is still there.

Your own icons. Choose from 12 icons for each state: check, no entry, coffee, smile, door, headphones, microphone, video call, phone, moon, lock or a muted bell. Or go without an icon.

Your own words. Rename both states, for example On Air / Off Air, In a meeting / Come in. Or hide the text and keep just the icon or colour. Long text wraps and shrinks to fit.

Auto-reset timer. Go busy for 25 minutes of focus or an hour-long meeting and switch back to free on its own, with a countdown on the key.

Readable at a glance. The whole tile is solid green or red, with a check or a "no entry" sign.
