Add Remote Torrent

By: JGK Add-on
Add magnets and .torrent URLs to remote clients. Multi-server, local-only settings.Send magnet links and .torrent URLs to your remote BitTorrent client (qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge, and more) with one click. Multi-server profiles; settings stay

Features & Capabilities

Add Remote Torrent sends magnet links and .torrent file URLs from Firefox straight to the BitTorrent client you already run — on your LAN, NAS, or seedbox — instead of downloading files to disk.

HOW TO START

  1. Open Options and add a server (client type, URL, credentials).
  2. Grant host access when prompted for that server.
  3. Right-click a magnet or torrent link → send to your client, or use the toolbar popup.

FEATURES • One-click / context-menu add to your WebUI • Multiple server profiles (pick per link or use URL rules) • Optional on-page link catching (left-click matched links; site access only when you enable it) • Advanced Add dialog: tags, category/label, directory, paused, file selection, and more • Popup torrent list, speeds, dashboard, and optional completion notifications • Optional search (Jackett / Prowlarr / qBittorrent plugins) and RSS auto-add • Private-tracker friendly: can download .torrent bytes in your browser session before uploading to the client • Flexible auth: client login, reverse-proxy Basic Auth, URL credentials, qBittorrent cookie / WebUI Basic / API key

SUPPORTED CLIENTS qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge, uTorrent/BitTorrent, rTorrent, ruTorrent, Synology & QNAP Download Station, Flood, Porla, and many others (see project README).

PRIVACY Server credentials and preferences are stored only in this browser (local storage). The extension does not send your data to the developer or analytics services. It connects only to the clients and sites you configure or use. See the Privacy Policy linked on this listing.

NOTE Desktop Firefox only (not Firefox for Android). Host access is optional and requested when you save a server or enable link catching — including local network addresses and custom ports.

User Reviews

Awesome extension, exactly what I needed. Super easy to set up and it works perfectly with my remote seedbox. Being able to send torrents directly from the browser saves me a ton of unnecessary steps. The custom link catching is especially useful. Really hope this extension keeps getting updates and support — it has become an essential part of my workflow. Highly recommended!

Is Add Remote Torrent Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Add Remote Torrent requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Allows reading and modifying clipboard content, which can be sensitive, posing a moderate privacy risk.
  • Medium ******* ******* ************* ***** *** ** ******* *** **** ******* ****** ******** *******
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Add Remote Torrent is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
