## What it is
FlexGet is a multipurpose Python automation tool for content like torrents, NZBs, podcasts, comics, series, and movies. It pulls from sources such as RSS feeds, HTML pages, CSV files, and search engines, and is configured via a YAML file with an extensive plugin system.

## Use cases
- automatically download tv show episodes from an rss feed
- track and grab movies via torrent rss feeds
- automate podcast and comic downloads
- monitor html pages and csv files for new content
- feed a watch directory for a torrent client
- schedule recurring media download tasks

## When to choose
- you want rule-based, scheduled automation for torrents, NZBs, or media feeds
- you prefer a YAML-configured CLI tool with a rich plugin ecosystem
- you need to combine multiple sources like RSS, HTML, and search engines in one pipeline

## When to avoid
- you need a graphical media manager with a web UI out of the box
- your use case is unrelated to content fetching and filtering
- you want a simple one-click setup without learning a configuration format
