Symlinkarr Wiki Home

Symlinkarr is a local-first operator tool for keeping a Real-Debrid-backed media library clean, reviewable, and recoverable without hand-sorting real files.

This wiki is organized by operator task, not by subsystem internals.

Start Here

• Daily dashboard and triage: Dashboard and Daily Operations
• Run scans and understand "why not" results: Scan, History, and Why-Not Signals
• Fix broken paths safely: Repair and Dead Links
• Review and apply cleanup work: Cleanup, Audit, and Prune Preview
• Create backups or recover a fresh install: Backup and Restore
• Validate setup and runtime safety: Configuration and Doctor
• Preview placements and inspect deferred acquisition work: Discover and Queue
• Untangle legacy anime layouts: Anime Remediation
• Understand refresh behavior in Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin: Media Server Refresh and Deferred Work

Operator Flows

• First install or missing config: start with Backup and Restore and Configuration and Doctor
• Daily operation: start with Dashboard and Daily Operations
• Something failed during a scan: go to Scan, History, and Why-Not Signals
• Media paths are broken: go to Repair and Dead Links
• You want to remove stale or legacy junk: go to Cleanup, Audit, and Prune Preview
• Anime library is still split or blocked: go to Anime Remediation

Scope

Use the wiki for:

• operator workflow
• safety posture
• page-by-page web UI meaning
• media-server behavior
• install and recovery flows

Do not use the wiki as a changelog or engineering notebook. Those live in repo docs and docs/dev-notes/.
