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

Where do I get the API keys Unmonitarr needs?

It requires running Sonarr and/or Radarr instances and their API keys, available in Settings → General → API Key.

What port should be exposed for Unmonitarr?

Expose port 5099, which is used for the webhook server and health check endpoint.

How can I test Unmonitarr without changing my Sonarr or Radarr library?

Set DRY_RUN=1 to preview changes, then set DRY_RUN=0 to apply them.

Can I set a different delay for individual shows or movies?

Yes, per-item delay overrides can be applied with tags such as delayby_60.

When does Unmonitarr re-monitor content?

It unmonitors items before the air or release date plus the configured delay, then automatically re-monitors them after that threshold passes; the delay can be negative to re-monitor early.
