cleanuperr is a tool for automating the cleanup of unwanted or blocked files in Sonarr, Radarr, and supported download clients like qBittorrent. It removes incomplete or blocked downloads, updates queues, and enforces blacklists or whitelists to manage file selection. After removing blocked content, cleanuperr can also trigger a search to replace the deleted shows/movies.
cleanuperr was created primarily to address malicious files, such as `*.lnk` or `*.zipx`, that were getting stuck in Sonarr/Radarr and required manual intervention. Some of the reddit posts that made cleanuperr come to life can be found [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gqnx16/psa_sonarr_downloaded_a_virus/), [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gqwklr/sonar_downloaded_a_mkv_file_which_looked_like_a/), [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gpw2wa/downloaded_waiting_to_import/) and [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/1gpi344/downloads_not_importing_no_files_found/).
The tool supports both qBittorrent's built-in exclusion features and its own blocklist-based system. Binaries for all platforms are provided, along with Docker images for easy deployment.
Refer to the [Environment variables](#Environment-variables) section for detailed configuration instructions and the [Setup](#Setup) section for an in-depth explanation of the cleanup process.
## Key features
- Marks unwanted files as skip/unwanted in the download client.
- Automatically strikes stalled or stuck downloads.
- Removes and blocks downloads that reached the maximum number of strikes or are marked as unwanted by the download client or by cleanuperr and triggers a search for removed downloads.
## Important note
Only the **latest versions** of the following apps are supported, or earlier versions that have the same API as the latest version:
- qBittorrent
- Deluge
- Transmission
- Sonarr
- Radarr
- Lidarr
This tool is actively developed and still a work in progress, so using the `latest` Docker tag may result in breaking changes. Join the Discord server if you want to reach out to me quickly (or just stay updated on new releases) so we can squash those pesky bugs together:

# How it works
1. **Content blocker** will:
- Run every 5 minutes (or configured cron).
- Process all items in the *arr queue.
- Find the corresponding item from the download client for each queue item.
- Mark the files that were found in the queue as **unwanted/skipped** if:
- They **are listed in the blacklist**, or
- They **are not included in the whitelist**.
- If **all files** of a download **are unwanted**:
- It will be removed from the *arr's queue and blocked.
- It will be deleted from the download client.
- A new search will be triggered for the *arr item.
2. **Queue cleaner** will:
- Run every 5 minutes (or configured cron, or right after `content blocker`).
- Process all items in the *arr queue.
- Check each queue item if it is **stalled (download speed is 0)**, **stuck in matadata downloading** or **failed to be imported**.
- If it is, the item receives a **strike** and will continue to accumulate strikes every time it meets any of these conditions.
- Check each queue item if it meets one of the following condition in the download client:
- **Marked as completed, but 0 bytes have been downloaded** (due to files being blocked by qBittorrent or the **content blocker**).
- All associated files of are marked as **unwanted/skipped**.
- If the item **DOES NOT** match the above criteria, it will be skipped.
- If the item **DOES** match the criteria or has received the **maximum number of strikes**:
- It will be removed from the *arr's queue and blocked.
- It will be deleted from the download client.
- A new search will be triggered for the *arr item.
# Setup
## Using qBittorrent's built-in feature (works only with qBittorrent)
1. Go to qBittorrent -> Options -> Downloads -> make sure `Excluded file names` is checked -> Paste an exclusion list that you have copied.
- [blacklist](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flmorg/cleanuperr/refs/heads/main/blacklist), or
- [permissive blacklist](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flmorg/cleanuperr/refs/heads/main/blacklist_permissive), or
- create your own
2. qBittorrent will block files from being downloaded. In the case of malicious content, **nothing is downloaded and the torrent is marked as complete**.
3. Start **cleanuperr** with `QUEUECLEANER__ENABLED` set to `true`.
4. The **queue cleaner** will perform a cleanup process as described in the [How it works](#how-it-works) section.
## Using cleanuperr's blocklist (works with all supported download clients)
1. Set both `QUEUECLEANER__ENABLED` and `CONTENTBLOCKER__ENABLED` to `true` in your environment variables.
2. Configure and enable either a **blacklist** or a **whitelist** as described in the [Arr variables](#Arr-variables) section.
3. Once configured, cleanuperr will perform the following tasks:
- Execute the **content blocker** job, as explained in the [How it works](#how-it-works) section.
- Execute the **queue cleaner** job, as explained in the [How it works](#how-it-works) section.
## Using cleanuperr just for failed *arr imports (works for Usenet users as well)
1. Set `QUEUECLEANER__ENABLED` to `true`.
2. Set `QUEUECLEANER__IMPORT_FAILED_MAX_STRIKES` to a desired value.
3. Optionally set failed import message patterns to ignore using `QUEUECLEANER__IMPORT_FAILED_IGNORE_PATTERNS__<NUMBER>`.
4. Set `DOWNLOAD_CLIENT` to `none`.
**No other action involving a download client would work (e.g. content blocking, removing stalled downloads, excluding private trackers).**

### Advanced variables
<details>
<summary>Click here</summary>
| Variable | Required | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|
| HTTP_MAX_RETRIES | No | The number of times to retry a failed HTTP call (to *arrs, download clients etc.) | 0 |

### To be noted
1. The queue cleaner and content blocker can be enabled or disabled separately, if you want to run only one of them.
2. Only one download client can be enabled at a time. If you have more than one download client, you should deploy multiple instances of cleanuperr.
3. The blocklists (blacklist/whitelist) should have a single pattern on each line and supports the following:
```
*example // file name ends with "example"
example* // file name starts with "example"
*example* // file name has "example" in the name
example // file name is exactly the word "example"
regex:<ANY_REGEX> // regex that needs to be marked at the start of the line with "regex:"
```
4. Multiple Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr instances can be specified using this format, where `<NUMBER>` starts from `0`:
```
SONARR__INSTANCES__<NUMBER>__URL
SONARR__INSTANCES__<NUMBER>__APIKEY
```
5. Multiple failed import patterns can be specified using this format, where `<NUMBER>` starts from 0:
```
QUEUECLEANER__IMPORT_FAILED_IGNORE_PATTERNS__<NUMBER>
```
6. [This blacklist](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flmorg/cleanuperr/refs/heads/main/blacklist) and [this whitelist](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flmorg/cleanuperr/refs/heads/main/whitelist) can be used for Sonarr and Radarr, but they are not suitable for other *arrs.
#
### Binaries (if you're not using Docker)
1. Download the binaries from [releases](https://github.com/flmorg/cleanuperr/releases).
2. Extract them from the zip file.
3. Edit **appsettings.json**. The paths from this json file correspond with the docker env vars, as described [above](#environment-variables).
