Welcome to the Inspectarr wiki. Inspectarr is a self-hosted torrent watchdog for the *arr ecosystem. It polls qBittorrent, detects fake or malicious downloads that match configurable rules (for example an .exe masquerading as a TV episode), blocklists them in Sonarr, Radarr, or Lidarr so the release is never retried, deletes the torrent and its files, and notifies you via Pushover.

It also scores your Prowlarr torrent indexers by health — response time, failure rate, and malicious content served — automatically reorders them so your best indexers are searched first, and tracks per-indexer grab and malicious-hit statistics over time.

The FAQ is a good place to start if you're new. For setup, see Installation.
