How it works

This is a detailed explanation of how the recurring cleanup jobs work.

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.

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 metadata downloading, failed to be imported or slow.
- 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 are marked as unwanted/skipped/do not download.
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.

Run every hour (or configured cron).
Automatically clean up downloads that have been seeding for a certain amount of time.
Automatically changes the category of downloads that have no hardlinks.
