Step 1: Find movie in Radarr
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/lookup-movie.sh <search term>
If not found, add it (Step 1b).
Step 1b: Add movie to Radarr (if not present)
First lookup TMDB ID:
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/lookup-tmdb.sh <search term>
Then add:
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/add-movie.sh <tmdbId>
Default quality profile: 5 (Ultra-HD). Root folder: /data/media/movies.
Step 2: Search releases
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/search-releases.sh <movieId>
Step 3: Evaluate and present options to user
Pick top candidates and show:
| # | Title | Seeds | Size | Quality | Approved |
|---|
| 1 | ... | N | X GB | Bluray-2160p | ✓ |
Quality guidance:
- Prefer 2160p (Ultra-HD) with good seeds
approved: True = passes quality profile; prefer these- YTS: small/clean x265 — good default
- Remux: 50–80 GB lossless — only if user wants best possible
- Rejected releases may still be grabbed; check
rejections for reason (often just quality profile mismatch)
Always confirm with user before proceeding.
Step 4: Grab by rank
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/grab-by-rank.sh <movieId> <rank>
rank is 1-indexed matching the number shown in search-releases output.
Step 5: Verify in queue
bash .claude/skills/radarr-grab/check-queue.sh <title keyword>
Quality profiles
| ID | Name |
|---|
| 1 | Any |
| 4 | HD-1080p |
| 5 | Ultra-HD |
| 6 | HD - 720p/1080p |
If a release is rejected due to quality profile mismatch, update the movie's profile before grabbing:

RADARR_BASE=https://radarr.local.abbottland.io
MOVIE=$(curl -s "$RADARR_BASE/api/v3/movie/<ID>" -H "X-Api-Key: $RADARR_API_KEY")
UPDATED=$(echo "$MOVIE" | python3 -c "import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); d['qualityProfileId']=5; print(json.dumps(d))")
curl -s -X PUT "$RADARR_BASE/api/v3/movie/<ID>" -H "X-Api-Key: $RADARR_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "$UPDATED" | python3 -c "import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print('qualityProfileId:', d.get('qualityProfileId'))"
