Every instance. One library.

The problem

Sonarr and Radarr are great. Juggling several of them isn't.

A separate 4K library is a popular setup, but it doubles every chore. Arrsenal connects to the instances you already run and gives them one front end.

1. 01

   One library, split across four apps

   Running separate HD and 4K instances means checking Sonarr HD, Sonarr 4K, Radarr HD, and Radarr 4K one by one just to answer “do I have this?”

   Every title, merged, with every instance's status

   Matching titles combine into one entry. Each instance keeps its own availability and quality, shown side by side on every poster and row.

2. 02

   Adding the same title over and over

   Want a movie in HD and 4K? Search for it, pick a profile and root folder, then do it all again in the other instance.

   Add once, to every instance you choose

   Pick the targets, set a quality profile and root folder for each, and add them together. Arrsenal remembers your last choice per instance, and if one target fails, you retry only that one.

3. 03

   Download queues scattered everywhere

   A stalled import in one instance and a failed grab in another stay hidden until you check each Activity tab.

   One combined queue, with bulk actions

   See progress from every instance in one table. Remove or blocklist items, grab pending releases, and retry imports one at a time or across a selection, with History and Blocklist alongside.

4. 04

   No single view of what's missing or coming up

   Wanted lists and calendars live in each app separately, so the full picture of missing episodes and upcoming releases is never in one place.

   One Wanted list and one calendar

   Wanted shows every monitored target missing files. Search them individually, by selection, or all at once. The calendar merges episodes and movie releases into one month and agenda.

5. 05

   Searching releases one app at a time

   To look for a better release, you open the right instance, find the title again, and start an interactive search there.

   Search from any title, for any target

   Start an automatic or manual search for any instance, season, or episode from the title's page. Results arrive in a sortable table with rejection reasons, and grabs ask for confirmation first.

6. 06

   Screens that go stale

   With several dashboards open, it's easy to act on a queue or library that has already changed.

   Live updates, and warnings when one breaks

   Library and queue changes stream in live from Sonarr and Radarr, with no interval polling. If an instance goes offline, the others stay visible and a persistent warning tells you which one.

Features

Built for people who already know their way around the arrs

A familiar sidebar layout, fast keyboard navigation, and the details you'd otherwise dig through several screens to find.

• One search for everything

  Press ⌘K to jump to recently added titles and library matches, followed by movies and shows you can add.

• Filters that go deep

  Build custom filters from type, quality, target, monitoring, genre, size, and more, with nested all/any groups.

• Posters or a dense table

  Switch views, sort, and pick your columns. Filters and view options are saved on the server, so every browser shares them.

• Detail pages that do the work

  Bookmarkable movie and show pages with per-instance seasons, episode availability, and targeted searches.

• Deletion you can trust

  Removing a title keeps its files unless you explicitly choose otherwise. Confirmations name the instance and warn about shared files.

• Make it yours

  Six themes, including Sonarr- and Radarr-inspired palettes, plus a custom accent color.

• Keys stay on the server

  API keys never reach the browser. Every upstream request is made server-side.

• Optional sign-in

  Turn on single-account authentication in Settings, with local password recovery if you forget it.

Get started

Running in a couple of minutes

All you need is Docker and at least one Sonarr or Radarr instance that the container can reach.

1. 1

   Save compose.yaml

   No repository checkout required. Your connections and preferences persist in the arrsenal-config volume.

   compose.yamlCopy

   services:
     arrsenal:
       image: ghcr.io/davidchalifoux/arrsenal:latest
       ports:
         - "3000:3000"
       volumes:
         - arrsenal-config:/config
       extra_hosts:
         - "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
       restart: unless-stopped
   
   volumes:
     arrsenal-config:

2. 2

   Start it

   Then open http://localhost:3000 on the Docker host, or http://<server-ip>:3000 from your LAN.

   TerminalCopy

   docker compose pull
   docker compose up -d

3. 3

   Connect your instances

   Select Connect an instance, then enter each Sonarr or Radarr URL and the API key from its Settings > General > Security. Test the connection, save, and repeat for every instance.

   Running Sonarr or Radarr on the Docker host? Use host.docker.internal instead of localhost.
