MediaWolf – A Missing Piece for the Arr Stack, Open for Contributors

Hey lemming self-hosters,

I came across MediaWolf recently and wanted to share it here. It’s an open-source project that’s tackling a big gap in the media automation space. If you use Radarr, Sonarr, Lidarr, Readarr, or any part of the Arr stack, you know how powerful they are for managing and downloading media. But despite how great they are individually, they don’t always work together as smoothly as they could.

That’s where MediaWolf comes in. It’s designed to tie everything together... acting as a discovery hub, recommendation engine, and management tool to help you find, organize, and automate your media library across multiple services. Instead of manually juggling requests between different apps, MediaWolf aims to make it all feel more seamless.

With MediaWolf, the idea is to bring everything under one roof... a central place to discover, recommend, and manage media without bouncing between multiple dashboards. Think of it as a missing bridge between the different pieces of your media automation setup.

The Project Needs Contributors

The creator, TheWickedWolf, recently posted on Reddit looking for developers to help bring MediaWolf to life. The project is already in motion, but for it to really thrive, it needs more people involved. Since it’s built in a modular way, you don’t have to commit to the entire project, just focus on a specific part that interests you.

New features? There’s room for innovation.

Bug fixes and improvements? Always welcome.

UI/UX enhancements? Could use some polish.

Open-Source and Accepting PRs

If you’re into media automation, open-source development, or just want to help improve how the Arr stack works together, this is a great project to check out. The team is actively accepting pull requests, and the creator is open to adding new contributors.

Repo: GitHub – MediaWolf

If you've ever wanted a smarter, more integrated way to work with the Arr stack, this might be it.
