autobrr-mcp

Part of the arr-mcps collection. MCP server exposing autobrr's API as tools, so an LLM can read and manage a full autobrr instance: filters, indexers, IRC networks, RSS/Torznab feeds, download clients, actions, release queue and stats, import lists, notifications, API keys, proxies, and system config.

Built with FastMCP. autobrr's API has no OpenAPI spec, so the endpoint table is hand-maintained against autobrr's internal/http handlers (see AGENTS.md).

Creating an API key

Create a key in autobrr Settings > API Keys. The token is shown once at creation; the server sends it as the X-API-Token header on every request.

Related MCP server: qbittorrent-mcp

Install

Download a wheel from the latest release and install it as a uv tool (no repo checkout needed):

uv tool install autobrr_mcp-*.whl

This puts an autobrr-mcp command on your PATH. Register it with Claude Code:

claude mcp add autobrr \
  --env AUTOBRR_URL=https://autobrr.example.com \
  --env AUTOBRR_API_KEY=<key> \
  -- autobrr-mcp

From source

uv sync
cp .env.example .env   # fill in AUTOBRR_URL and AUTOBRR_API_KEY
claude mcp add autobrr \
  --env AUTOBRR_URL=https://autobrr.example.com \
  --env AUTOBRR_API_KEY=<key> \
  -- uv run --directory /path/to/autobrr-mcp autobrr-mcp

Config

Env var

Required

Default

AUTOBRR_URL

yes

-

AUTOBRR_API_KEY

yes*

none (no auth header sent if unset)

* Every autobrr API endpoint requires a token; set it or every call returns 401. The server still starts without one so errors surface from the API rather than at startup. If your autobrr instance is served under a base URL (e.g. https://host/autobrr/), include that subpath in AUTOBRR_URL.

Tools

Thirteen resource-scoped tools. Each takes an operation (one of the listed endpoints) plus an arguments dict matching that operation's parameters, and dispatches to the underlying endpoint. This is the fleet's portmanteau pattern: ~104 autobrr endpoints wrapped as 13 tools so every session's system prompt stays small.

Tool

Operations (endpoints)

autobrr_filters

list, create, get, update, update_partial, delete, duplicate, toggle_enabled, get/update notifications (/api/filters, /api/filters/{id}/...)

autobrr_indexers

list, list_schemas, list_options, create, get, update, delete, test_api, toggle_enabled (/api/indexer)

autobrr_irc

list/create/get/update/delete networks, create channel, send_cmd, restart, message history, process announce (/api/irc)

autobrr_feeds

list, create, get, update, delete, delete_cache, test, fetch_caps, get_latest, force_run, toggle_enabled (/api/feeds)

autobrr_download_clients

list, create, update, test, get, delete, get_arr_tags (/api/download_clients)

autobrr_actions

list, create, update, delete, toggle_enabled (/api/actions)

autobrr_lists

autobrr_release

list, recent, get, stats (+activity/volume/heatmap/top indexers/top filters), indexer options, delete, retry action, duplicate profiles, cleanup jobs CRUD/toggle/run (/api/release)

autobrr_config

get, update (/api/config)

autobrr_system

healthz liveness/readiness, log files, latest update, check updates (read-only)

Excluded on purpose: /api/auth (session/OIDC, not usable over an API token), /api/events (SSE stream), the inbound /api/webhook list-trigger routes, and /api/logs/files/{file} (raw log download).

Development

make help  # list all commands

Command

Does

make sync

uv sync

make test

Offline tests - one per endpoint, mocked HTTP

make test-integration

Tests against the live instance (needs AUTOBRR_URL/AUTOBRR_API_KEY; write tests need AUTOBRR_WRITE_TESTS=1)

make build

Build wheel + sdist into dist/

make bump-patch / bump-minor / bump-major

Bump the version in pyproject.toml + uv.lock

make clean

Remove build artifacts

The release workflow (.github/workflows/release.yml) builds and publishes to Releases whenever a v* tag is pushed - so the usual flow is make bump-patch, commit, then tag and push.
