Project description
Poof
Spoof game processes to complete Discord quests by creating a lightweight process that mimics a target game's executable.
Safety
This does not modify the Discord client, inject code, hook processes, or tamper with Discord's memory.
It only:
Copies /bin/sleep to a temporary file with the game's name and runs it (just a standard Linux process and nothing related to discord)
Table of Contents
Requirements
- Linux (uses
prctl, Unix sockets,/proc) - Python 3.8+
- Discord desktop client running
Installation
pip install poof-discord
How it works
-
Fake Process — Copies
/bin/sleepto/tmp/<game_name>and runs it. Discord's process scanner reads/proc/<pid>/exeand sees a process named exactly like the target game, auto-registering it as your activity.
Note : The process name is nothing but the target game's executable name which you can get from the Discord-Detectable-Apps repo. -
Discord RPC (optional) — Connects to Discord's Unix socket and sends a
SET_ACTIVITYframe with the game's Application ID (same protocol the official GameSDK uses).
Usage
# Process-only (enough for quests):
poof 'genshinimpact.exe'
# With rich presence too:
poof 'genshinimpact.exe' --app-id 1234567890
# Use prctl rename instead of binary copy:
poof 'genshinimpact.exe' --app-id 1234567890 --method prctl
# Just RPC, no fake process:
poof 'genshinimpact.exe' --app-id 1234567890 --no-process
