#01
Process the Grabarr Queue
Fetcharr
What this step does
Find out what is supposed to be here (Grabarr queue) and what actually landed (Complete disk). That pair is this run’s work item.
Happens
- Connect to Grabarr. Keep the queued item, magnet, direct-download URL, and downloader save path / category / tags.
- Downloader category / tag / label is the working media type and forma. Filename guessing does not override a downloader tag.
- Scout Complete drop folders. Loose files at the Complete root count. Pure […] folders are buckets, never titles.
- Skip dotfiles, skip names, and Flagged exact versions (Do Not Download Again).
Does not
- Rename, place to library, or hunt Servarr.
- Treat encryption as a Daily step.

Stop the Downloader
Fetcharr
What this step does
Freeze the related downloader jobs so the file is not still writing while Boxarr moves it. Confirm type / forma against the catalog.
Happens
- Stop/pause related jobs for this run’s work items. Seed/upload may already be settled; pause active downloads.
- Assume the downloader was right (Step 1), then confirm against the catalog. Catalog agrees → keep. Catalog disagrees → catalog wins.
- A dead downloader is reported. It does not abort the rest of the run.
Does not
- Pause every client.
- Remove the job — that is Step 8.

Move Media to [Staging]
Fetcharr
What this step does
Claim the work item into untyped [Staging]. That is the holding land — not the grabber path, not the downloader path, not the library home.
Happens
- Ensure each library’s [Staging] folder exists before claiming into it.
- Cross-lane live dumps are refused.
- A leftover already in [Staging] can be claimed.
Does not
- Verify the file yet — that is Step 4.
- Place into the live library home — that is Step 7.

Verify the Media (in [Staging])
Fetcharr
What this step does
Prove that what landed is what the acquisition claimed, and that it is acceptable to keep. First verify gate.
Happens
- MediaInfo and the health probe: video/audio characteristics, language, region, tracks; the file actually opens (known video types).
- Unknown / unsupported types park in Review and drop out of this run.
- A known type that will not open is Do Not Download Again for that exact version and drops out.
- Books, comics, manga, magazines, ROMs skip the video probe; they still need a known type.
Does not
- Place a bad copy into the library.
- Queue the replacement — that is Step 5.

Check Media
Fetcharr
What this step does
If verification failed: throw the copy away and ask for another. It must not become canonical library content. (Was Reject / Re-queue Failed Media.)
Happens
- Reject the copy.
- Queue a replacement through the server-app stack / Flag refetch.
- This is a decision/action, not a complicated branch.
Does not
- Grab a future release — that is a History action, not this step.
- Keep a failed file “just in case.”

#06
Rename Media
Fetcharr
What this step does
Apply the catalog / conventional name while the file is still in [Staging]. Record original name, new name, history.
Happens
- Inbound naming stays conventional. Broken extensions (video mkv → .mkv) are fixed.
- Fetcharr must not guess a previous name later — the record is the memory.
- Rename happens before the library place (Step 7).
Does not
- Dump unclear forma into Live Action.
- Place the file — that is Step 7.

Move Media to Library
Fetcharr
What this step does
Keepers leave [Staging] for the live library home. This is the place after verify / check / rename. Rejected copies never take this step.
Happens
- Only files that passed Step 4 and were not rejected in Step 5.
- Destination is the library home for this work (lane / type from Steps 1–2).
- Record the placement (from [Staging], to library home) so History / Stepback can follow.
Does not
- Place a rejected or unverified copy.

Remove from Downloader, Grabber, and Jellyseerr
Fetcharr
What this step does
Once keepers are in the library (or rejects are gone), take the work off the rest of the stack so nothing keeps hunting a file Boxarr already holds.
Happens
- Remove the matching downloader job.
- Remove matching grabber queue rows (strict title / SxxEyy).
- Unmonitor the grabbed episode/movie on the grabber (History / Stepback can restore).
- Clear matching Jellyseerr (and equivalent request) junk.
Does not
- Pause unrelated downloads.

Comprehensive Cleanup
Fetcharr
What this step does
Leave nothing from this acquisition except what is still a live downloader job. Complete for this work should be empty. Active should be queue-only.
Happens
- Active: keep a file only if a downloader job still owns it. No job = remove.
- If every downloader client is down, do not wipe packages.
- Complete after a successful move + verify: empty. Lane buckets stay.
- Encoder junk (nfo/txt/samples) unless the operator opted to preserve auxiliary media.
Does not
- Delete the lane buckets themselves.

Check Against Catalog
Fetcharr
What this step does
Ask the catalog what this file is called and where it should live now that it is in the library home (not [Staging]).
Happens
- Canonical series name comes from the catalog.
- If the live home moved since last place, note it so History / Stepback can follow.
Does not
- Rename — that already happened in Step 6.
- Invent a name from the filename when the catalog already has one.

What this step does
Fill empty catalog fields for this work. Do not thrash records that are already complete.
Happens
- Complete current metadata in the catalog → use it. Do not refetch.
- Incomplete → use what exists; queue missing metadata work to the end of this run’s queue; fetch only the affected episode/item.
Does not
- Write sidecars — that is Step 12.

Happens
- Configurable grabbers / priorities.
- Smallest useful scope first (current season / current work). Whole-library rescan only when that is the smallest practical operation (movies).

Rotate Media
Fetcharr
What this step does
Default: keep all media. When Autorun turns this on, free space by removing the oldest eligible owned titles — never Kaizen, Review, or Flag.
Happens
- Space-limited policy: type, capacity, max GB, FIFO, age, watched, recency, minimum preserve. Oldest eligible first.
- Holds: unwatched, in-progress, current season, specials, locked titles, Review-parked, protect list.
- After a remove: unmonitor so it is not immediately re-grabbed.
Does not
- Run unless Autorun turns it on. Skipped is honest, not a fake OK.
- Act as Kaizen, Review, or Flag.

Re-mux Media
Fetcharr
What this step does
Reorganize the container without re-encoding (tracks, language, chapters, attachments). Off until Autorun. Re-mux ≠ transcode.
Happens
- Choose which streams stay.
- Quality check is Step 18 (Check Remux). Failed output parks in Review.
Does not
- Change the codec / resolution / bitrate — that is transcode (Step 19).
- Promote a rewrite that fails the probe.

Check Remux
Fetcharr
What this step does
After re-mux, prove the new file. Do not promote a rewrite that fails. If remux was skipped, this step skips (honest).
Happens
- ffprobe must open the file; streams and format must be readable.
- Failed output parks in Review; the bad rewrite is not canonical.
Does not
- Re-encode or re-mux.
- Replace Step 4 (inbound MediaInfo) or Kaizen’s later verify.

Transcode Media
Fetcharr
What this step does
Change encoded media (codec, resolution, bitrate, hardware/software). Off until Autorun.
Happens
- Quality check is Step 20 (Check Transcode). Failed output parks in Review; do not promote.
- If ingest priority puts transcode ahead of viewable, files may stay in [Staging] until this pass succeeds.
Does not
- Only reshuffle streams — that is re-mux (Step 17).

What this step does
Against the catalog, note what this run’s parent is still missing — only media this run touched.
Happens
- Example: catalog E1–E10, library has 1, 2, 10 → 3–9 missing → queue acquisition.

Remove Stall Downloads
Fetcharr
What this step does
Clear stalled / dead downloader jobs that are not actually progressing so they do not sit forever in Active.
Happens
- Identify stalled or timed-out downloads for this run’s work (and obvious dead jobs).
- Remove those jobs from the downloader. Do not wipe a live download.
Does not
- Pause healthy downloads.
- Wipe Complete leftovers — that is Step 9.

Happens
- Reload Flag. Exact versions marked Do Not Download Again stay skipped.
- Tick reports opened by later steps (rotate / remux / transcode / missing).

Happens
- Push the missing / failed list from Steps 5, 21, and 23 onto the grabber / request stack.
- Due / in-window work is strong priority.
Does not
- Sweep titles this run never touched.
- Take over a high-priority grab the operator wants outside Fetcharr’s window.

What this step does
Push what is already on the acquisition list and due inside Fetcharr’s window. Not a new hunt outside that window.
Happens
- Items already on the list, paused in grabbers, missing from the server-app stack, inside the current acquisition window, or scheduled / currently due.
- Due / in-window = strong priority. Outside the core/time frame = massively deprioritized or paused.
- Sitting Activity (queued / delay / warning / dead client) is not HAVE. Downloading is left alone.
Does not
- Take over a high-priority grab the operator wants outside Fetcharr’s window — they use another client.

- Quality (owned files only): language, quality, bitrate, container.
- Sidecars: metadata fleshed out; orphan/mismatched sidecars cleaned.
- Verify touched media (same probe as Step 4).
Does not
- Touch sibling shows.
- Delete third-party or user-managed files. Unknown handling goes to Review.

Supported services, Fetcharr Daily steps, live verbs, and CLI flags.
Supported Services
Every service Boxarr can take, sorted like the Control Panel. Support is a ladder: Unwired (Designed) → Wired (Implemented) → Tested → Verified → Certified. Untested is a flag for services Conner will not test before initial release; community feedback may fill Tested and Verified on those. Certified stays Conner. Empty official links are omitted. This list is the catalog (templates), not your live credentials.
SoT: configuration/supported-services.json5.
Loading catalog…
Fetcharr
Fetcharr is Boxarr’s Daily ingest. It does not replace Sonarr, Radarr, or the downloader. It claims what landed, proves it, names it, places it, and follows up on the parents it touched. Host is site-root Boxarr.exe. The CLI verb is python boxarr.py --fetcharr — that is not the activate path.
Catalog is the source of truth. Downloader tags are the first hypothesis — catalog confirms or corrects. Filename guessing does not override a downloader tag. Face language is downloader. [Staging] spelling is intentional.
Numbers below are run order (1–26). Default = execute. Test Mode (--testfirst / --test / --dryrun) is one global switch — plan only. Rotate, re-mux, and transcode stay off until Autorun; skipped is honest.
Three moves: Claim (1–9) → Place (10–14) → Follow-up (15–26). Queue first, then disk. Rename in [Staging] before the library place. Readable media before Flag. Complete empty after move+verify. Active = live queue jobs only.

Claim — steps 1–9
Know what is supposed to be there, move it into [Staging], prove it, rename it, place keepers in the library, then take it off the rest of the stack so nothing keeps hunting a file Boxarr holds.
#01 Process the Grabarr Queue
Find out what is supposed to be here (Grabarr queue) and what actually landed (Complete disk). That pair is this run’s work item.
- How
-
- Connect to Grabarr. Keep the queued item, magnet, direct-download URL, and downloader save path / category / tags.
- Downloader category / tag / label is the working media type and forma. Filename guessing does not override a downloader tag.
- Scout Complete drop folders. Loose files at the Complete root count. Pure […] folders are buckets, never titles.
- Skip dotfiles, skip names, and Flagged exact versions (Do Not Download Again).
- Does not
-
- Rename, place to library, or hunt Servarr.
- Treat encryption as a Daily step.
#02 Stop the Downloader
Freeze the related downloader jobs so the file is not still writing while Boxarr moves it. Confirm type / forma against the catalog.
- How
-
- Stop/pause related jobs for this run’s work items. Seed/upload may already be settled; pause active downloads.
- Assume the downloader was right (Step 1), then confirm against the catalog. Catalog agrees → keep. Catalog disagrees → catalog wins.
- A dead downloader is reported. It does not abort the rest of the run.
- Does not
-
- Pause every client.
- Remove the job — that is Step 8.
#03 Move Media to [Staging]
Claim the work item into untyped [Staging]. That is the holding land — not the grabber path, not the downloader path, not the library home.
- How
-
- Ensure each library’s [Staging] folder exists before claiming into it.
- Cross-lane live dumps are refused.
- A leftover already in [Staging] can be claimed.
- Does not
-
- Verify the file yet — that is Step 4.
- Place into the live library home — that is Step 7.
#04 Verify the Media (in [Staging])
Prove that what landed is what the acquisition claimed, and that it is acceptable to keep. First verify gate.
- How
-
- MediaInfo and the health probe: video/audio characteristics, language, region, tracks; the file actually opens (known video types).
- Unknown / unsupported types park in Review and drop out of this run.
- A known type that will not open is Do Not Download Again for that exact version and drops out.
- Books, comics, manga, magazines, ROMs skip the video probe; they still need a known type.
- Does not
-
- Place a bad copy into the library.
- Queue the replacement — that is Step 5.
#05 Check Media
If verification failed: throw the copy away and ask for another. It must not become canonical library content. (Was Reject / Re-queue Failed Media.)
- How
-
- Reject the copy.
- Queue a replacement through the server-app stack / Flag refetch.
- This is a decision/action, not a complicated branch.
- Does not
-
- Grab a future release — that is a History action, not this step.
- Keep a failed file “just in case.”
#06 Rename Media
Apply the catalog / conventional name while the file is still in [Staging]. Record original name, new name, history.
- How
-
- Inbound naming stays conventional. Broken extensions (video mkv → .mkv) are fixed.
- Fetcharr must not guess a previous name later — the record is the memory.
- Rename happens before the library place (Step 7).
- Does not
-
- Dump unclear forma into Live Action.
- Place the file — that is Step 7.
#07 Move Media to Library
Keepers leave [Staging] for the live library home. This is the place after verify / check / rename. Rejected copies never take this step.
- How
-
- Only files that passed Step 4 and were not rejected in Step 5.
- Destination is the library home for this work (lane / type from Steps 1–2).
- Record the placement (from [Staging], to library home) so History / Stepback can follow.
- Does not
-
- Place a rejected or unverified copy.
- Wipe Complete leftovers — that is Step 9.
#08 Remove from Downloader, Grabber, and Jellyseerr
Once keepers are in the library (or rejects are gone), take the work off the rest of the stack so nothing keeps hunting a file Boxarr already holds.
- How
-
- Remove the matching downloader job.
- Remove matching grabber queue rows (strict title / SxxEyy).
- Unmonitor the grabbed episode/movie on the grabber (History / Stepback can restore).
- Clear matching Jellyseerr (and equivalent request) junk.
- Does not
-
- Pause unrelated downloads.
- Wipe disk leftovers — that is Step 9.
#09 Comprehensive Cleanup
Leave nothing from this acquisition except what is still a live downloader job. Complete for this work should be empty. Active should be queue-only.
- How
-
- Active: keep a file only if a downloader job still owns it. No job = remove.
- If every downloader client is down, do not wipe packages.
- Complete after a successful move + verify: empty. Lane buckets stay.
- Encoder junk (nfo/txt/samples) unless the operator opted to preserve auxiliary media.
- Does not
-
- Delete the lane buckets themselves.
- Wipe Active when every downloader is down.
Place — steps 10–14
Ask the catalog what it is, fill metadata, write sidecars, lock/hide them, and refresh the server so the file is readable. Keepers already left [Staging] in Step 7.
#10 Check Against Catalog
Ask the catalog what this file is called and where it should live now that it is in the library home (not [Staging]).
- How
-
- Canonical series name comes from the catalog.
- If the live home moved since last place, note it so History / Stepback can follow.
- Does not
-
- Rename — that already happened in Step 6.
- Invent a name from the filename when the catalog already has one.
#11 Update / Complete Metadata
Fill empty catalog fields for this work. Do not thrash records that are already complete.
- How
-
- Complete current metadata in the catalog → use it. Do not refetch.
- Incomplete → use what exists; queue missing metadata work to the end of this run’s queue; fetch only the affected episode/item.
- Does not
-
- Write sidecars — that is Step 12.
- Refetch a complete catalog record for sport.
#12 Build Sidecars
Write the configured metadata files beside the media. That is the external representation Kaizen will check.
- How
-
- Sidecars live next to the file, not inside it.
- Does not
-
- Lock / hide sidecars — that is Step 13.
- Refresh the media server — that is Step 14.
#13 Lock / Hide Sidecars
Hide, archive, and optionally lock the sidecars this run just wrote so they are managed, not casual litter next to the media.
- How
-
- Valid managed sidecars are hidden / archived and may be set read-only.
- Do not lock third-party or user-managed sidecar files.
- Does not
-
- Rewrite the sidecar contents — that was Step 12.
- Refresh the media server — that is Step 14.
#14 Refresh Media Server
Tell the media server the file is here, named, and has sidecars — so it is readable.
- How
-
- Configurable grabbers / priorities.
- Smallest useful scope first (current season / current work). Whole-library rescan only when that is the smallest practical operation (movies).
- Does not
-
- Scan the whole library as a habit.
Follow-up — steps 15–26
After the file is readable: tick Flag, optionally rotate / re-mux / transcode (each with its own check), note missing members, clear stalls, re-check Flag, add missing/failed, push what is due, then Kaizen the branch this run touched.
#15 Review Flagged Media
Tick Flag and open reports after the package is readable — not at the head of Daily, so ingest is not blocked on report chrome.
- How
-
- Replay retryable actions from the last run (stale “running” → failed).
- Load the Flag list (Do Not Download Again for exact versions — already honored at Step 1).
- Tick open reports without a Servarr search.
- Does not
-
- Hunt Servarr.
- Start new grabs.
#16 Rotate Media optional
Default: keep all media. When Autorun turns this on, free space by removing the oldest eligible owned titles — never Kaizen, Review, or Flag.
- How
-
- Space-limited policy: type, capacity, max GB, FIFO, age, watched, recency, minimum preserve. Oldest eligible first.
- Holds: unwatched, in-progress, current season, specials, locked titles, Review-parked, protect list.
- After a remove: unmonitor so it is not immediately re-grabbed.
- Does not
-
- Run unless Autorun turns it on. Skipped is honest, not a fake OK.
- Act as Kaizen, Review, or Flag.
#17 Re-mux Media optional
Reorganize the container without re-encoding (tracks, language, chapters, attachments). Off until Autorun. Re-mux ≠ transcode.
- How
-
- Choose which streams stay.
- Quality check is Step 18 (Check Remux). Failed output parks in Review.
- Does not
-
- Change the codec / resolution / bitrate — that is transcode (Step 19).
- Promote a rewrite that fails the probe.
#18 Check Remux optional
After re-mux, prove the new file. Do not promote a rewrite that fails. If remux was skipped, this step skips (honest).
- How
-
- ffprobe must open the file; streams and format must be readable.
- Failed output parks in Review; the bad rewrite is not canonical.
- Does not
-
- Re-encode or re-mux.
- Replace Step 4 (inbound MediaInfo) or Kaizen’s later verify.
#19 Transcode Media optional
Change encoded media (codec, resolution, bitrate, hardware/software). Off until Autorun.
- How
-
- Quality check is Step 20 (Check Transcode). Failed output parks in Review; do not promote.
- If ingest priority puts transcode ahead of viewable, files may stay in [Staging] until this pass succeeds.
- Does not
-
- Only reshuffle streams — that is re-mux (Step 17).
- Promote a rewrite that fails the probe.
#20 Check Transcode optional
After transcode, prove the new file. Do not promote a rewrite that fails. If transcode was skipped, this step skips (honest).
- How
-
- ffprobe must open the file; streams and format must be readable.
- Failed output parks in Review; the bad rewrite is not canonical.
- Does not
-
- Re-encode or re-mux.
- Replace Step 4 (inbound MediaInfo).
#21 Check Library for Missing Content
Against the catalog, note what this run’s parent is still missing — only media this run touched.
- How
-
- Example: catalog E1–E10, library has 1, 2, 10 → 3–9 missing → queue acquisition.
- Does not
-
- Sweep the whole library.
- Fire global MissingEpisodeSearch.
#22 Remove Stall Downloads
Clear stalled / dead downloader jobs that are not actually progressing so they do not sit forever in Active.
- How
-
- Identify stalled or timed-out downloads for this run’s work (and obvious dead jobs).
- Remove those jobs from the downloader. Do not wipe a live download.
- Does not
-
- Pause healthy downloads.
- Wipe Complete leftovers — that is Step 9.
#23 Check Flagged Items
Re-check Flag after follow-up work. Honor Do Not Download Again and tick anything this run newly earned.
- How
-
- Reload Flag. Exact versions marked Do Not Download Again stay skipped.
- Tick reports opened by later steps (rotate / remux / transcode / missing).
- Does not
-
- Start new grabs from Flag chrome.
- Replace Step 15 (first Flag tick).
#24 Add Missing / Failed Items
Queue acquisition for missing members and failed replacements this run already identified. Do not invent a global hunt.
- How
-
- Push the missing / failed list from Steps 5, 21, and 23 onto the grabber / request stack.
- Due / in-window work is strong priority.
- Does not
-
- Sweep titles this run never touched.
- Take over a high-priority grab the operator wants outside Fetcharr’s window.
#25 Push Scheduled Items
Push what is already on the acquisition list and due inside Fetcharr’s window. Not a new hunt outside that window.
- How
-
- Items already on the list, paused in grabbers, missing from the server-app stack, inside the current acquisition window, or scheduled / currently due.
- Due / in-window = strong priority. Outside the core/time frame = massively deprioritized or paused.
- Sitting Activity (queued / delay / warning / dead client) is not HAVE. Downloading is left alone.
- Does not
-
- Take over a high-priority grab the operator wants outside Fetcharr’s window — they use another client.
#26 Kaizen
Final cleanup and normalization of anything this run touched. Target: catalog → media → sidecars, relationships clean. Scope is the branch being processed, not sibling shows.
- How
-
- Catalog: names and paths match; have vs expected; missing members of the parent this run touched.
- Quality (owned files only): language, quality, bitrate, container.
- Sidecars: metadata fleshed out; orphan/mismatched sidecars cleaned.
- Verify touched media (same probe as Step 4).
- Does not
-
- Touch sibling shows.
- Delete third-party or user-managed files. Unknown handling goes to Review.
