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).
