TB-008 — Retire Deluge

Status: not started
Your call: (unset — talk first)

---

Talk first

Stop. Don't read Reference until we've talked. In chat, say "let's do TB-008" or "retire deluge".

In one sentence: Remove Deluge if qBittorrent is doing all the torrent work.

Why it came up: You run Deluge, qBit, and NZBGet — two torrent clients may be leftover cruft.

Questions

1. When did you last use Deluge?
2. Are Sonarr/Radarr pointed at qBit only? (We can check together)

Your options

Option	Meaning
Do it	We're doing this — I'll implement or walk you through it
Later	Keep on the list, not now
Drop	Remove from plan — totally fine
Tweak	Change scope; tell me how

Reference (only open if we're doing it)

Stack / files

stacks/media/, Caddyfile

If we do it — rough steps

1. Confirm zero Deluge torrents + no *arr dependency
2. Remove service + Caddy block

Done when

• Deluge gone
• qBit/NZBGet still fine
