Utilities
utils/ holds tooling that runs anywhere — a laptop, the controller, a host — rather
than being deployed as a service. Each of these is self-contained and portable; none of
them assume a particular machine.
Documented tools
Section titled “Documented tools”| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| qBittorrent Tracker Remover | Strips unwanted trackers from torrents; also ships as the qbt-tracker-remover package |
| Termix Proxmox Sync | Generates a Termix host-import file from the Proxmox dynamic inventory |
| Recyclarr Config Generator | Builds Recyclarr configuration from a declarative instance list |
Undocumented helpers
Section titled “Undocumented helpers”These have no README yet, so they are not mirrored onto this site. Browse them on GitHub:
| Directory | Contents |
|---|---|
utils/utils-linux/ | Pre-commit installers, formatting helpers, connectivity checks, Trilium import |
utils/utils-windows/ | PowerShell equivalents — package install, formatting tests, weather/connection helpers |
utils/pve/ | Proxmox host maintenance — LXC auto-extend, storage trim |
utils/archivebox-automation/ | Pocket → ArchiveBox sync and Linkwarden conversion |
utils/pre-commit-hooks/ | Repo-local hooks, including the Ansible get_url force check |
utils/utils/ | Small shell one-offs |
Install method preference
Section titled “Install method preference”When these scripts install third-party tooling across the fleet, prefer GitHub release tarballs or the Nexus APT repo over PPAs. PPAs have repeatedly failed on this fleet’s mix of distributions and architectures.
