Slimarr - v1.0.0.4

on GitHub

[1.0.0.4] — 2026-04-28

Planned focus

Usability polish, ecosystem expansion, and higher-confidence automation workflows.

Implemented so far

• Optimized System health checks:
  • Parallelize integration probes instead of checking services one by one
  • Cache health probe results briefly so the System page and Health Matrix do not duplicate network checks
  • Refresh the Integration Status panel on an interval to match the Health Matrix freshness
• Added production frontend chunk splitting for charts, sockets, icons, and remaining vendor code to reduce oversized main bundle risk
• Added route-level lazy loading so major pages are loaded on demand instead of bundled into the initial app payload
• Added automation preflight checks before full-cycle start:
  • Blocks cycles when critical services/search sources are unavailable
  • Warns about queue saturation, pending failed-download cleanup, optional integration issues, and low disk headroom
  • Adds a System page preflight panel with per-check status details
• Improved Queue page UX:
  • Unified active/recent refresh path with manual refresh and 15-second fallback polling
  • Added active/completed/failed summary counters
  • Added recent-download status filters and timestamps
  • Improved responsive row layout for long release names and error messages
• Added service-health cache invalidation after settings saves so connection status reflects configuration changes quickly
• Improved Settings page review workflow:
  • Added inline validation for malformed URLs, invalid numeric ranges, incomplete active downloader config, and missing search sources
  • Added quick-jump section navigation for long Settings pages on smaller windows
  • Added downloader capability display for SABnzbd/NZBGet support coverage
• Added a download-client capability matrix and API so future clients can declare support for submit, queue/history status, purge, categories, pause/resume, and storage-path lookup
• Added active-downloader capability checks to automation preflight
• Added installer frontend asset-manifest smoke test so packaging fails early if frontend/dist/index.html references missing built assets
• Added additive SQLite startup migrations for existing installs so failed-download retry/cleanup metadata columns are created without resetting user data
• Hardened SABnzbd failure recovery:
  • Capture SAB failure messages and storage paths for incomplete/aborted jobs
  • Purge failed jobs from both SAB queue and history
  • Clean failed download folders automatically before retrying alternatives
  • Route manual and scheduled downloads through a shared monitor/replace/cleanup/retry workflow
• Improved retry behavior:
  • Retry only accepted replacement candidates
  • Skip every release already attempted for the movie
  • Avoid retrying generic blacklisted releases even if they came from a different indexer
  • Mark movies as failed when all retry/replacement paths are exhausted instead of leaving them stuck as downloading
• Improved orphan cleanup:
  • Match downloader jobs against both raw and client-prefixed Slimarr job IDs
  • Capture SAB orphan storage paths correctly
  • Make the Orphaned Downloads cleanup action purge downloader history and delete orphaned files/folders immediately

UI and usability (planned)

• Sidebar resilience on smaller windows:
  • Ensure navigation remains reachable when viewport height is constrained
  • Keep footer actions visible while allowing menu items to scroll
• Additional responsive polish pass across pages with long action stacks beyond System/Settings/Queue

Integration opportunities under investigation

• Bazarr companion integration:
  • Trigger subtitle refresh/search after successful replacements
  • Surface missing subtitle counts per media item in Slimarr UI
• Lidarr integration (music):
  • Evaluate extending Slimarr's scoring/replacement model to albums/tracks
  • Reuse existing downloader/indexer plumbing for audio workflows
• Whisparr parity integration:
  • Reuse Sonarr-like API patterns for monitor/unmonitor and post-import sync
  • Keep feature toggled/optional like current Radarr/Sonarr integration approach
• Readarr status note:
  • Readarr is currently retired by the Servarr team, so direct integration is lower priority unless ecosystem support stabilizes

Reliability and automation candidates

• Smarter retry windows (time-based backoff + indexer/uploader failure weighting)
• Integration health history (not just latest state) for trend-based diagnostics
• Persist preflight and health snapshots for trend views instead of keeping only the latest result

Packaging and performance candidates

• Installer/package footprint audit (exclude unnecessary test modules from packaged runtime where safe)
