- Free allowance
- MIT-licensed and self-hosted, no account of its own; the README calls it 'a Media Gateway for Debrid services and Usenet written in Go' that 'provides a unified interface for Sonarr, Radarr, and other *Arr applications'.
- Verdict
- self-hosted, last resortverdict qualifies: usable as stated; the read path was probed. Self-hosted options are listed last, because this site is for users who have no hardware.

Broadest provider list of any client read here: Real-Debrid, TorBox, Debrid-Link, AllDebrid, Premiumize. It supports no provider whose API is undocumented (LinkSnappy, Mega-Debrid). |
| Binding | none A pure client: the provider's per-object cap or add floor fails first at 1 TiB/month. |
| Identity | anonymous No account; it takes the provider's key in config.json. |
| Egress | No meter of its own; egress is the provider's. free allowance: none of its own |
| Per-object cap | not applicable to the gateway; the provider's cap applies. |
| Retention | not applicable: it proxies the provider's library rather than storing it. |
| Interface | rest, nfs, smb 'Mock Qbittorent and Sabnzbd API that supports the Arrs (Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr etc)', plus 'Read-only NFSv4 and SMB servers for the same libraries, including custom virtual folders'. Runs on port 8282 in the documented compose file. endpoint: http://localhost:8282/ |
| Tooling | Docker image cy01/blackhole:latest (documented) or a Go binary; integrates with Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr and anything else that speaks the qBittorrent or SABnzbd API. |
| Composes with | This is what makes an *arr stack work without a disk: Sonarr asks Decypharr for a 'torrent', Decypharr adds the magnet to the provider, and the file is served from the provider's library over NFS or SMB. |
| Reliability | A mock API is a compatibility promise with two moving targets (the *arr client and the provider); a provider field rename surfaces as a failed grab, not as an error in Decypharr. |
| Notes | The *arr answer observed here: every integration read is a qBittorrent-shaped shim (this, rdt-client) or a Torznab indexer (Debrid Media Manager), and no *arr application was found with a debrid client of its own. This is the most capable shim read here. |
| Evidence note | documented README read. Not deployed here, so the NFS/SMB and mock-API behaviour is untested. |
