cross-seed: Fully-automatic cross-seeding

cross-seed is an app designed to help you download torrents that you can cross seed based on your existing torrents. It is designed to match conservatively to minimize manual intervention.

Requirements

  • Node >= 24
  • Any indexers that support Torznab (through Prowlarr or Jackett)
  • At least one torrent client: rTorrent, qBittorrent, Deluge, or Transmission

Tutorial

Head on over to cross-seed.org to get started.

Releases and Branches

cross-seed roughly follows semantic versioning. Every release has a corresponding git tag. Git branches do not represent released code.

Versions that look like v0.0.0 are releases and are considered stable. Versions that look like v0.0.0*-0* are prereleases and are not considered stable.

We also publish Docker images at ghcr.io/cross-seed/cross-seed under several tag patterns: :branch, :6, latest.

  • latest - the most recent release.
  • prerelease - the most recent release or prerelease.
  • master - The main development branch. Code that is intended for release, but has not necessarily released yet. This is similar to prerelease but gets new code first so is slightly more bleeding edge.
  • nightly - for open experimental PRs. Not always used and may fall behind master.
