Tewi – text-based interface for managing BitTorrent clients

Tewi is a text-based interface for managing BitTorrent clients from the terminal.

It connects to Transmission, qBittorrent and Deluge daemons, giving users a keyboard-friendly way to browse torrents, inspect details, add new torrents, control transfers, and use torrent search integrations without launching a graphical client.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Connects to Transmission, qBittorrent and Deluge daemons using credentials.
  • Displays torrent lists in card, compact and one-line view modes.
  • Shows torrent details including files, trackers, peers, categories and labels.
  • Provides torrent actions including start, pause, remove, verify, reannounce and priority changes.
  • Includes built-in search providers plus Jackett, Prowlarr and bitmagnet integrations.
