What Is a Cleanuparr Seedbox?
Cleanuparr is the janitor your automation stack is missing: it watches Sonarr, Radarr and your download client for stalled downloads, failed imports and junk-filled releases, then cleans them up and triggers a fresh search — automatically. The result is an *arr stack that unsticks itself.
Why Run Cleanuparr on a Seedbox?
- No more dead queue items: torrents stuck at 0 seeds get removed and replaced with a working release.
- Junk protection: block known-bad and suspicious files before they waste your disk and ratio.
- Hands-free recovery: failed downloads trigger automatic re-searches instead of sitting there for weeks.
- Cleaner disk: orphaned files from removed downloads get swept up.
Cleanuparr on EvoSeedbox: What You Get
- One-click install from your dashboard — Cleanuparr runs in its own isolated Docker container with automatic updates.
- Self-healing squared: our App Doctor keeps Cleanuparr itself healthy while Cleanuparr keeps your queues healthy.
- Built for the stack we host: the same one-click Sonarr, Radarr and Lidarr installs it’s designed to clean.
- HTTPS web interface for rules and activity logs.
The rules are pleasantly specific: strike a download after N detections of zero speed, treat metadata-only torrents as failed, purge items the *arrs no longer track, and honour seeding requirements before touching anything private-tracker-related. Every action is logged with its reason, so when a queue item vanishes you can see exactly which rule fired — trust built through receipts, not faith.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it delete things I wanted to keep?
Cleanuparr only acts on items matching the rules you set — stalled beyond a threshold, failed imports, blocklisted files. Start with conservative rules and expand once you trust it.
Does it work with ruTorrent?
Cleanuparr targets the download clients the *arr stack talks to, with qBittorrent having the deepest support. Ask us in a ticket about the best client pairing for your setup — several are one-click installs here.
What are malware blocklists?
Community-maintained lists of known-bad release patterns. Cleanuparr can block those files from ever importing into your library.
Do I still need to check my queues?
Far less. The whole point is that stalls and failures resolve themselves — most users just skim Cleanuparr’s activity log occasionally.
An *arr Stack That Cleans Itself
Cleanuparr is for automation users whose queues have scar tissue: the download stuck at 99% since March, the release that imported as a renamed archive of nothing. If you run Sonarr or Radarr seriously, it’s the missing feedback loop that turns “mostly automated” into actually automated.
