Indexer proxy API for torrent and usenet trackers

Jackett keeps up its daily indexer fixes, adding trackers and chasing domain moves.

torrent-indexersopen-sourcemedia-automationmaintenance
◆Current state
Jackett is an open-source proxy that turns hundreds of torrent tracker sites into a single Torznab API for media automation tools. It ships an auto-generated release about every day. The November 11 and 12 builds added the private sites bytepeer and an API-based cyanbug and worked around snowpt's removed download links; the November 13 build moves dontorrent to a new domain.
◆Where it's heading
The work stays reactive: trackers change domains, logins and page layouts, and Jackett adjusts definitions within a day. A recurring sub-pattern is moving sites to API-based connections, as with magnetz last week and cyanbug now.
◆Prediction
More trackers moving from page scraping to API or API-key connections is the most visible pattern to continue, alongside the usual daily domain fixes.
