Torlink is a terminal-based torrent finder and downloader that requires zero configuration.
The tool solves the problem of finding reliable torrents by aggregating results from a curated list of reputable sources in a single search, eliminating the need to navigate multiple websites with misleading ads and dead links. When you search, results stream in from every source simultaneously, tagged with file size and seeder count so you can assess download speed before committing. You can search by keyword, paste a magnet link or infohash, or drag a .torrent file directly into the terminal. The tool also supports browsing a curated library without searching.
Torlink suits anyone who wants a streamlined torrent workflow without installing a separate application or managing configuration files. It works best for users comfortable in the terminal and those who want downloads to run in the background while continuing to search and queue additional files. The curated source list is deliberately short and hand-picked for trustworthiness: games come exclusively from FitGirl, while movies and TV draw from YTS, The Pirate Bay, 1337x, and BitTorrented; anime sources are Nyaa and SubsPlease. Downloads save to your system's downloads folder by default but can be redirected per-file or globally. The tool automatically seeds completed downloads and includes a headless mode for servers and seedboxes.
Development activity shows consistent engagement with user-facing improvements and bug fixes across multiple releases. The project maintains active responsiveness to issues and pull requests, indicating the maintainer prioritizes addressing user concerns. Recent work spans both feature additions and stability refinements, suggesting a balanced approach to expanding capability while maintaining reliability.
