## What it is
Maintainerr is a self-hosted media library maintenance tool for Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby that automatically identifies unwatched or unwanted media using rules across integrations like Radarr, Sonarr, Tautulli, and Overseerr. It builds rule-based collections, shows them on the media server home screen, and deletes or unmonitors the content after a configurable countdown to free up storage space.

## Use cases
- automatically delete unwatched movies and shows from my Plex server
- free up hard drive space taken by media nobody watches
- clean up old Overseerr requests that were never watched
- create rule-based collections in Jellyfin and delete them after a timer
- unmonitor and remove media from Radarr and Sonarr automatically
- find stale half-finished TV shows in my Emby library
- schedule automatic library cleanup for my media server

## When to choose
- you run a Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby server with *arr stack integrations and want automated library pruning
- you want rule-based collections with a deletion countdown and *arr cleanup actions
- you prefer a Docker-deployed web UI for media maintenance

## When to avoid
- you don't use a self-hosted media server or *arr ecosystem
- you want a general-purpose file deduplication or disk cleanup tool
- you need a media manager for downloading or organizing new content rather than removing old content
