torlink is a torrent search and download tool that runs entirely in your terminal. Instead of visiting sketchy torrent websites full of fake buttons and popups, you type one command, search for what you want, and download it directly to your computer. It is designed to take the headache out of finding torrents. To use it, you just need Node installed on your computer. You type a single command, and a search interface appears right in your terminal. You can type what you are looking for, paste a magnet link, or just hit Enter to browse a curated library. Results come in from several trusted sources at once, showing you file size and how many people are currently sharing each file. When you find what you want, you press a key to start downloading. Downloads run in the background while you keep searching, and if you quit and come back later, interrupted downloads pick up where they left off. This tool is for anyone who downloads torrents but is tired of navigating ad-heavy websites. If you want to grab a movie, a TV show, anime, or a game without wading through popups and dead links, this simplifies the whole process. It searches a hand-picked list of sources: YTS and The Pirate Bay for movies, EZTV for TV, Nyaa for anime, and FitGirl for games. If one source happens to be down, the search just moves on without it and lets you know. A few things stand out about how it works. Everything stays on your computer, nothing routes through a central server, so your downloads are private. After a download finishes, it automatically keeps seeding by default, meaning it shares the file back with others so the network stays healthy. You can pause or stop seeding anytime if you prefer. The tool is built in TypeScript and requires no configuration or setup beyond having Node installed, which keeps the barrier to entry very low.
