Add Remote Torrent
Image from store
Description from store
A Chrome browser extension that allows users to easily add torrents (via magnet links or .torrent file URLs) to various remote or local torrent client WebUIs. It supports managing multiple server profiles for various client types, offering a streamlined experience for torrent management directly from your browser.
It also works with private trackers too since the file is downloaded before added to the webui.
I used Cline + Google Gemini Pro to code this from scratch loosely based on now discontinued @bogenpirat/remote-torrent-adder with my own added features.
Please give it a try and create some feedbacks or issues at the github page.

- (2025-07-19) Dash Badcock: Using this on OSX this isn't intercepting the torrent links when I click on them. I need to paste the torrent link into the extension window for it to work
- (2025-07-17) Paul Jackson: Works for seedbox.io. Client: rTorrent rTorrent Web UI URL: https://<full username>.seedbox.io/ User/Pass Like Larry mentioned, use SCGI/HTTPRC to connect. https://<full username>.seedbox.io/RPC/<username numbers only>/
- (2025-07-17) Larry Alexander: Love this! Thank you! I wish the success sound was more brief, like Remote Torrent Adder, even better replaceable with my own mp3's, but a minor complaint indeed! Had a little trouble getting it set up, not the fault of the extension, but the old seedbox.io docs. In the hopes that this saves somebody else from hours of failed attempts here's what legacy seedbox.io SCGI/HTTPRPC URL (for rTorrent) looks like: https://<full username>.seedbox.io/RPC/<username numbers only>/

- (2025-07-12) Luke Kane: Same as others, a good replacement for the unmaintained Remote Torrent Adder plugin. Working well. Thanks. Great Work.
- (2025-07-11) Z KC: This is the great offspring for remote torrent adder. And, however it is hard to imagine, it offers even more useful features. Simple yet powerful. Great job jgk!
- (2025-07-11) Željko Vranić: It works perfectly!
- (2025-06-16) Brett Hayward: The old extension I was using is no longer supported, as Chrome has stopped supporting manifest V2. This is working perfectly on the latest Chrome, and I'm using it as a remote BiglyBT (just using Vuze mode).
- (2025-06-11) Mark Notton: Works really well with qBittorrent, clean and lovely to see a remote torrent extension adhering to Google's Manifest V3 and still being maintained.
- (2025-06-01) karel van dongen: Seems to be a good replacement for the unmaintained Remote Torrent Adder plugin. Working fine in vivaldi.
