torlink is a TUI, so Get started now keeps just the single npx torlink launch
and frames searching, pasting a magnet, browsing, and the ? cheatsheet as
in-app keypresses, instead of opening with magnet/torrent args and a global
install.
Finished downloads now keep seeding automatically and you opt out per item with
p, reusing the live torrent instead of tearing it down. Resume and restore seed
from the .torrent metadata captured at download time, so they verify the local
file immediately rather than depending on re-fetching metadata from the swarm.
Quitting now flushes queue, history, and seeds synchronously and exits
immediately, fixing the hang when quitting while seeding or with a paused seed.
Paused seeds persist their state and stay paused across restarts. Hide the
hardware cursor on the splash, and clarify that c removes a finished item the
same way in Downloads and Seeding.
Tests are isolated from the real data dir via a TORLINK_STATE_DIR override plus
vitest config, so runs never touch user data. Adds scripts/verify-seeding.ts
(npm run verify:seeding), an offline-deterministic harness proving seed, pause,
and resume transfer real bytes.
Curated, multi-source torrent search and download from the terminal:
concurrent search across built-in sources with streamed, source-tagged
results; a download-only webtorrent engine with true pause/resume and
restart recovery; magnet paste; and a calm Ink + React TUI. No indexer
server, no setup.
