# Legacy Tdarr Scripts Archive

## tdarr_monitor_local_node.py

Full-featured Tdarr monitoring script (~1200 lines) built for when the local workstation (nobara-pc) ran as an unmapped remote Tdarr node with GPU transcoding.

**Features:** Stuck job detection via cross-run state comparison (pickle file), automatic worker killing, Discord alerts, configurable thresholds, rotating log files.

**Why it existed:** The unmapped remote node architecture was prone to stuck jobs caused by network issues during file transfers between the remote node and server. The monitor ran every minute via cron to detect and kill stuck workers.

**Why it's archived:** Transcoding moved to ubuntu-manticore (10.10.0.226) as a local mapped node with shared NFS storage. No remote transfers means no stuck jobs. Tdarr manages its own workers natively. Archived February 2026.

## tdarr_file_monitor_local_node.py + tdarr-file-monitor-cron_local_node.sh

File completion monitor that watched the local Tdarr cache directory for finished `.mkv` transcodes and copied the smallest version to a backup location. The cron wrapper ran it every minute.

**Why it existed:** When the local workstation ran as an unmapped Tdarr node, completed transcodes landed in the local NVMe cache. This monitor detected completion (by tracking size stability) and kept the best copy.

**Why it's archived:** Same reason as above - mapped node on manticore writes directly to the shared NFS media mount. No local cache to monitor. Archived February 2026.

## tdarr-flow-backup-2026-03-06.json

Pre-modification backup of flow `KeayMCz5Y` before adding Ensure AC3 Stereo (`ensAC3str`) and Clear Subtitle Default Flags (`clrSubDef`) plugins. Safe to delete after 2026-04-06 if the flow is running well.
