Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

What must be enabled on the torrent clients before connecting them to aMuTorrent?

Enable External Connections in aMule, XML-RPC in rTorrent, WebUI in qBittorrent or Deluge, or RPC in Transmission.

Can a single aMuTorrent instance manage more than one download client?

Yes, it provides a unified dashboard for supported clients and supports multiple instances of the same client type.

How are multiple users handled?

aMuTorrent includes multi-user authentication, capabilities, and trusted proxy SSO.

How can Prowlarr and Sonarr/Radarr be integrated?

Prowlarr can search torrents across indexers and send results to connected BitTorrent clients, while aMule gets a Torznab indexer and qBittorrent-compatible API for Sonarr/Radarr.

What directories does the Docker quick start say to create?

Create data and logs directories and set ownership to 1000:1000 before starting the container.
