Media Automation

A self-hosted media stack: Plex serves the library, while Sonarr, Radarr, and Prowlarr handle automated indexing and library management, backed by qBittorrent as the download client.

Stack

Service	Role
Plex	Media server and streaming frontend
Sonarr	TV library automation
Radarr	Movie library automation
Prowlarr	Indexer management, shared across the *arr apps
qBittorrent	Download client

Each runs as its own Compose stack under mediastack/, so any one service can be updated or restarted independently.
