Gives the daemon a public HTTPS hostname (`https://<random>.trycloudflare.com`)
so the in-browser player on torrentclaw.com plays cross-network without
Tailscale or port forwarding — the mixed-content block that was breaking
HTTPS-page → HTTP-daemon fetches is gone. Bytes proxy through CloudFlare,
never through TorrentClaw infra (preserves the aggregator legal posture).
New surface:
• `internal/funnel/` package: subprocess wrapper + auto-download for
cloudflared. Linux amd64/arm64/armhf/386 fetched from GitHub releases
on first run, validated by ELF magic + size sanity, O_EXCL partial
write so concurrent daemons don't clobber each other.
• `unarr funnel on/off/status` cobra command (sibling of `unarr vpn`).
• Daemon supervisor goroutine keeps cloudflared up across crashes + CF's
~6h Quick Tunnel rotation. Exponential backoff (2 s → 5 min). On exit
the reported URL is cleared so the web stops handing out a dead host.
• Wire: agent registers/syncs a FunnelURL field; web prefers it over
Tailscale/LAN for in-browser playback (HlsStreamPlayer + Stremio
addon).
Default ON for fresh installs (NAS/Docker get it without terminal-in);
existing configs that pre-date the feature stay off until the operator
opts in with `unarr funnel on`.
Docker image now bundles cloudflared (built per TARGETARCH via buildx).
Also fixed: libx264 'frame MB size > level limit' on anamorphic >16:9
sources. The level we hint to libx264 was derived from height alone,
which busted on 720p cinemascope (1728×720 = 4860 MBs > level 3.1's
3600). Bumped each tier: 720p → 4.0, 1080p → 4.1.
Version: 0.9.4 → 0.9.5.
Drops the custom WebRTC DataChannel pipeline + pion deps + WSS signaling
client + wire framing. Every in-browser playback now uses HLS over HTTP
from the daemon (Tailscale/LAN/UPnP). Browser P2P never re-enabled.
Wire renames (incompatible with web < 2026-05-26): agent.WebRTCSession
=> agent.StreamSession, SyncResponse.WebRTCSessions (JSON: webrtcSessions)
=> StreamSessions (JSON: streamSessions). MIN_AGENT_VERSION is bumped
to 0.9.4 on the web side so older agents see an upgrade card.
Also fixes the libx264 'VBV bitrate > level limit' abort by clamping
the encoder bitrate to the effective output height instead of the
requested label (carried over from the prior 0.9.3 unreleased work).
The seed_file vertical (mode=seed_file handler + engine.SeedFile) was
retired with the in-browser P2P player. [downloads.webrtc] config block
deleted; existing TOML files with the section still parse fine.
downloads.vpn.config_file = path to a WireGuard .conf read directly by the
daemon (skips the web fetch). Lets you point unarr at your own WireGuard
server / personal VPN and split-tunnel torrent traffic through it without
the web provisioning plumbing — for testing and self-hosted setups.
In-process userspace WireGuard tunnel (wireguard-go + gVisor netstack) for
the managed-VPN add-on. No root, no OS routing changes: only the embedded
anacrolix/torrent client's peer + tracker traffic is routed through the
tunnel, so the swarm and trackers see the VPN IP, not the user's home IP.
unarr's control plane (API, heartbeats) keeps using the normal net.
- internal/vpn: FetchConfig (GET /api/internal/agent/vpn-config, Bearer auth,
typed errors for disabled/not_provisioned/slot_on_device) + Up (parse .conf
→ uapi, CreateNetTUN, device Up) + DialContext/ListenPacket adapters.
- engine/torrent.go: when a tunnel is set, wire TrackerDialContext +
HTTPDialContext + TrackerListenPacket to netstack, DisableUTP, and
AddDialer(NetworkDialer{tcp, netstack}) for peer conns.
- config: downloads.vpn.enabled flag.
- daemon: bring up the tunnel before the torrent client; non-fatal on
failure (logs + downloads in the clear); slot_on_device warns the user.
- version bump 0.8.1 → 0.9.0.
Pairs with the web VPN add-on (dormant behind NEXT_PUBLIC_VPN_ENABLED).
Runtime-verified once a VPNResellers trial provides a live endpoint.
Phase 3 security audit follow-up. Medium and low-severity hardenings
plus a deferred-work plan for the cross-repo stream-token rollout.
Stream server CORS: replace the wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin
with an allowlist that echoes back only torrentclaw.com,
app.torrentclaw.com, the local Next dev port (3030 — matches the web
repo package.json) and any extras the operator adds via the new
downloads.cors_extra_origins TOML key. A Vary: Origin header is now
emitted whenever the request carries an Origin header so an
intermediate cache cannot serve a stale ACAO to a different origin.
URL scheme guard: openBrowser and OpenPlayer refuse any URL that is
not http(s). Combined with passing the URL after "--" wherever the
launched helper supports it (open, mpv, vlc, cvlc), this stops a
leading "-" from being parsed as a switch by the spawned process.
State file permissions: WriteState now writes 0o600 so the agent ID,
PID and counters cannot be enumerated by another local user on a
shared host. Matches the existing config file mode.
ZIP slip defense-in-depth: extractZip extracts the safety check into
safeZipPath, which canonicalises the entry name (normalising
backslashes to "/"), rejects "..", "../" prefix and "/../" interior
components, and verifies the final destination stays inside destDir
before opening any file.
Mirror fallback: documented the design for multi-provider
mirrors.json hosting in the comment block on DefaultStaticFallbackURLs
and added a follow-up note about signing it with the same ed25519
release key. The list is kept at one provider until the second host
is provisioned and added to torrentclaw-web's STATIC_FALLBACKS.
Deferred work: a new plan document Docs/plans/security-stream-token.md
covers the per-task stream token (Phase 2.2 of the original audit)
which requires coordinated web + CLI work and ships separately.
Phase 2 security audit follow-up. Three independent hardenings against
the unauthenticated daemon surface, the long-lived agent SSE stream
and the self-update channel.
UPnP is now opt-in. The stream port + /hls endpoints have no auth, so
publishing them on the WAN via the gateway was a default that exposed
active downloads to anyone scanning the operator's external IP. New
config downloads.enable_upnp (default false) gates the mapping; LAN
and Tailscale clients continue to work unchanged. A startup log makes
the new default visible.
The agent SSE reader now uses a bounded bufio.Scanner instead of an
unbounded ReadString. A hostile or buggy server can no longer grow
daemon memory by streaming a single line forever or by emitting
unbounded data: continuation lines — both are capped at 256 KiB and
1 MiB respectively, and an error is surfaced so SignalLoop reconnects.
Self-update now verifies an ed25519 signature over checksums.txt when
the binary was built with a release public key embedded (injected via
goreleaser ldflags from RELEASE_SIGNING_PUBKEY). The companion
scripts/sign-checksums runs in the release workflow when both the
public-key variable and the private-key secret are present, uploading
checksums.txt.sig next to the existing checksums file. Builds without
the embedded key continue to update with SHA256-only verification; a
--allow-unsigned flag is provided so users on a signed build can
still install pre-signing releases or recover from an accidental
unsigned release.
A new scripts/gen-release-key helper documents the one-time keypair
generation procedure required before flipping signing on.
- Mirror pool with health tracking and exponential backoff for failed hosts
- Agent client routes requests through mirror pool with retry semantics
- New `unarr mirrors` command to inspect mirror state and force failover
- `unarr status` now detects 401 from /agent/register and suggests `unarr login`
instead of the generic "Could not fetch account info" message
- Config supports multiple ScanPaths for upcoming multi-path library scan
- Draft plan for bidirectional library sync (CLI ↔ Web) under Docs/plans/
Adds WebRTCSession.Quality to the sync payload so the daemon can pick a
MaxHeight + bitrate per session instead of using the global config cap.
resolveQualityCap() maps the label to a (height, b:v) pair and
buildStreamSource() promotes a passthrough decision to ActionTranscodeVideo
when the source resolution exceeds the cap (4K source on a phone client
with quality="720p" must transcode, not pass-through).
Also lands the transcode-on-by-default fix for legacy configs without a
[downloads.transcode] section so existing installs pick up h264+aac
fallback for HEVC/AC3 content without re-running setup.
Source files in HEVC, AV1, AC3, DTS, EAC3, etc. now transcode through ffmpeg
to fragmented MP4 (h264 + aac) on-the-fly when the browser would otherwise
play silent black. Decision matrix lives in engine.DecideAction:
passthrough → remux → audio-transcode → full video-transcode.
Architecture — temp file + growing-size source:
- engine.streamSource interface abstracts byte source. Two impls:
* diskFileSource: passthrough when codecs are already browser-friendly.
* transcodeSource: spawns ffmpeg writing to a /tmp/tc-stream-*.mp4 file.
A ticker polls file size and wakes blocked ReadAt callers as ffmpeg
produces output. Estimate of final size (bitrate × duration) is
announced over the wire so the browser's scrubber has something to
anchor on.
- dataChannelPump now reads from streamSource instead of *os.File. HELLO
carries Transcoding=true + an estimated total size; Seekable=true (we
read random-access from the temp file even while writing).
- Transcoder runtime resolved per session by buildTranscodeRuntime in
cmd/daemon: ffmpeg/ffprobe path lookup + HWAccel auto-detection
(NVENC/QSV/VAAPI/VideoToolbox).
- New [downloads.transcode] TOML section: enabled (default true), hw_accel
(auto), preset (veryfast), video_bitrate (5M), audio_bitrate (192k),
max_height (optional downscale), max_concurrent (safety cap).
Falls back to passthrough if ffprobe is missing, fails, or codecs are
already browser-friendly. tmp file is cleaned up on session shutdown.
Adds the ffmpeg-binary half of the resolution stack so the upcoming
WebRTC streaming transcoder (Fase 3.3) has a single point of entry.
Search order matches ResolveFFprobe so operators don't need to learn a
second mental model:
1. Explicit path (--ffmpeg flag / library.ffmpeg_path config)
2. FFMPEG_PATH env var
3. "ffmpeg" on PATH (system install)
4. Adjacent to the unarr executable (release tarball bundles it here —
this is the preferred path; see Fase 3.2 goreleaser changes)
5. Cache dir (sibling of the cached ffprobe binary)
6. Auto-download from ffbinaries.com (~70MB) as last resort
Includes:
- internal/library/mediainfo/ffmpeg.go — ResolveFFmpeg + actionable
Docker / non-Docker error messages
- internal/library/mediainfo/ffmpeg_download.go — DownloadFFmpeg, reuses
ffprobePlatformKey + ffprobeAPIClient + ffprobeDLClient + extractFromZip
helpers; bumps maxZipSize to 200MB (ffmpeg static is ~70-100MB)
- internal/config: LibraryConfig.FFmpegPath toml field for explicit paths
- 4 unit tests: explicit OK, explicit missing, env var, sibling cache path
Tarball bundling and the actual transcoding pipeline land in the next
two commits.
Wires anacrolix/torrent's built-in webtorrent package so a browser
running webtorrent.js can fetch pieces from this CLI via WebRTC data
channels. The daemon stays the seeder; we never relay bytes through
TorrentClaw infrastructure — same legal posture as today.
Changes:
- internal/config: new [downloads.webrtc] section
(enabled/trackers/stun_servers/turn_servers/turn_user/turn_pass).
Disabled by default, opt-in via config.toml. When enabled but
trackers / STUN slices are empty, defaults are reapplied on Load() so
users get a working setup with a single `enabled = true`.
- internal/engine: TorrentConfig gains WebRTCEnabled / WebRTCTrackers
/ ICEServers; NewTorrentDownloader populates ClientConfig.ICEServerList
and forces NoUpload=false when WebRTC is on (browsers can't pull
otherwise). buildMagnet now accepts variadic extra trackers and the
downloader method prepends WSS trackers so anacrolix's
webtorrent.TrackerClient picks them up first.
- internal/engine/webrtc.go: BuildICEServers helper converts the TOML
WebRTCConfig into []webrtc.ICEServer with shared TURN credentials.
- internal/cmd/daemon.go + download.go: pass WebRTC config through to
the engine.
Tests (8 new, all green; full suite 0 lint issues, 0 vet):
- buildMagnet free function: defaults-only, with extras, trim+empty-skip
- downloader method: WebRTC disabled keeps WSS out, enabled prepends them
- BuildICEServers: nil when disabled, STUN-only path, TURN+credentials
- NewTorrentDownloader: full WebRTC-enabled construction (logs WebRTC
peer enabled, magnet contains wss://tracker.torrentclaw.com)
End-to-end smoke (browser ↔ unarr peer transfer) is deferred to a
manual test once tracker.torrentclaw.com WSS is live.
Replace the WebSocket + Cloudflare Durable Object architecture with a
single POST /sync endpoint. The CLI now operates autonomously with local
state (tasks.json) and syncs bidirectionally via adaptive-interval HTTP
polling (3s watching, 60s idle).
- Remove transport_ws, transport_hybrid, transport_http (~2,600 lines)
- Add SyncClient with adaptive interval loop
- Add LocalState for CLI-side task persistence
- Add TaskStateFromUpdate() helper (DRY)
- Extract finalize() to deduplicate processTask/processTaskRetry
- Consolidate shortID() into agent.ShortID (was in 3 packages)
- Wire GetActiveCount so `unarr status` shows active tasks
- Remove poll_interval, heartbeat_interval, ws_url from config
- Simplify ProgressReporter (sync replaces direct HTTP reporting)
- Auto-scan: daemon scans library daily (configurable via config.toml)
[library] auto_scan = true, scan_interval = "24h"
- Force start: tasks with forceStart=true bypass concurrency semaphore
(like Transmission's Force Start — opens temporary extra slot)
- Stall timeout default: 30m instead of unlimited, prevents dead torrents
from permanently blocking download slots
- ForceStart field in agent.Task for CLI/server communication
- Expand default trackers from 5 to 31 (synced with web tracker-list.ts)
- Add DHT node persistence between sessions (~/.local/share/unarr/dht-nodes.txt)
Saves known nodes on shutdown, restores on startup for warm DHT bootstrap
- Make metadata_timeout and stall_timeout configurable in config.toml
Default: 0 (unlimited, like qBittorrent) — users can set custom values
- Fix CleanTitle to handle web domains and format patterns (e.g. pctfenix.com)
- Migration wizard from Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr (unarr migrate) [pre-beta]
- Auto-detect instances via Docker, config files, port scan, Prowlarr
- Import wanted list (monitored+missing movies/series)
- Import download history and blocklist to avoid re-downloading
- Extract debrid tokens from *arr download clients
- Quality profile mapping to preferred_quality config
- DISTINCT ON PostgreSQL query for optimal torrent selection
- JSON export with --dry-run --json (text to stderr, JSON to stdout)
- Media server detection (Plex/Jellyfin/Emby) in unarr init
- Detects library paths and offers them as download directory options
- Debrid auto-configuration in unarr init
- Scans *arr instances for debrid tokens
- Validates and saves via API if user confirms
- New preferred_quality setting in config (2160p/1080p/720p)
- Library scan command (unarr scan) with ffprobe metadata extraction
