Surge is now Hurtle. The app, binaries, data folder and browser add-on all have the new name. Your downloads list and settings move over on first start. Firefox users: remove the old Surge add-on and install the Hurtle one from this release (it has a new add-on ID). Chrome-family users: reload the unpacked extension from the new zip.

Install

System Download Then
Windows (x64) hurtle-*-windows-x86_64.zip Unzip anywhere, run hurtle.exe
macOS (Apple Silicon) hurtle-*-macos-aarch64.zip Unzip, move Hurtle.app to Applications, open it
macOS (Intel) hurtle-*-macos-x86_64.zip Same as above
Linux (x64) hurtle-*-linux-x86_64.tar.gz Extract, run ./hurtle
Linux (arm64) hurtle-*-linux-aarch64.tar.gz Extract, run ./hurtle

Running Hurtle once registers it with Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi and Firefox, so the extension can reach it. If you move the files, run hurtle-host --register again (and hurtle-host --unregister to remove it).

Browser extension

  • Chrome / Brave / Edge: unzip hurtle-chrome-*.zip, open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode, click Load unpacked, and pick the unzipped folder.
  • Firefox: open hurtle-firefox-*.xpi if this release has one (signed). Otherwise use about:debugging → Load Temporary Add-on → manifest.json from hurtle-firefox-*.zip. A temporary add-on is removed when Firefox restarts.
  • Zen / LibreWolf: set xpinstall.signatures.required to false in about:config, then about:addons → ⚙ → Install Add-on From File… → hurtle-firefox-*-unsigned.xpi.

Video sites (YouTube etc.) and HLS/DASH streams use yt-dlp, ffmpeg and deno. Installed copies are used if you have them; otherwise Hurtle fetches them from their official releases the first time you save a video, checks their SHA-256 sums, and keeps yt-dlp up to date.

macOS: the app is not notarized. If macOS says it is damaged or can't be opened, run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Hurtle.app.

Windows and macOS: there is no tray icon yet, so closing the window quits Hurtle. It starts again on the next browser download.
