arm64 supported
📋 Script Details
SuggestArr reads your Jellyfin/Plex/Emby watch history, finds similar titles via TMDB, and files requests in Jellyseerr or Overseerr automatically. Requested in discussion #2449.
- Stack: Vue client + Python (uvicorn/ASGI) backend.
npm ci && npm run buildinclient/, deps viauv pip install -r api_service/requirements.txt. - Layout taken from
docker/Dockerfile: the built client is copied to/opt/suggestarr/static/, andswagger-ui-distfrom the client's node_modules tostatic/swagger-ui— the backend serves both from there, so skipping that step leaves a blank page. - Start command from
config/supervisord.conf:uvicorn api_service.app:asgi_app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 5000. Upstream runs it under supervisord; here it is a plain systemd unit. CONFIG_DIR=/opt/suggestarr_datakeeps configuration and the local database outside the app directory soCLEAN_INSTALLupdates do not wipe them.- Note: it files requests on its own. Flagged as a warning to keep approval enabled in Jellyseerr/Overseerr and start with a conservative job config — otherwise it fills disks quickly.

The SuggestArr script is ready for testing:
Everything is configured through the setup wizard at http://:5000: your media server (Jellyfin/Plex/Emby), a TMDB API key, and the Jellyseerr or Overseerr instance that receives the requests.
SuggestArr files requests automatically. Start with a conservative job configuration and keep approval enabled in Jellyseerr/Overseerr, otherwise it can fill your disks faster than expected.
Configuration and the local database live in /opt/suggestarr_data, outside the app directory, so they survive updates.
Note: This is not in the official repo yet—it's just a dev version! After merging into ProxmoxVE, it will need to be recreated.

The script worked as intended. No errors. SuggestArr works just fine.

The below is 100 % written by AI. I asked Al to help me set it up and review the setup.
Testing feedback for the SuggestArr LXC script:
Overall, the install is working very well. Setup completed successfully and Plex, TMDb and Seerr all connected correctly. Plex users were detected, recommendation Preview works, and with Approve First enabled the recommendations stay in SuggestArr and nothing is automatically sent to Seerr.
A few things I noticed during testing:
CONFIG_DIR=/opt/suggestarr_datais correctly set in/opt/suggestarr.env, but/opt/suggestarr_dataremains empty./opt/suggestarr/config/config_files/including
requests.db,config.yaml,secret.keyandapp.log./opt/suggestarr_datais currently not working.ssh.serviceandssh.socketwere still enabled and port 22 was listening. I disabled both manually.requests.db,config.yamlandapp.logwere initially mode644. I changed the sensitive files to600and the config directories to700.app.logand the systemd journal and found 0 secret values exposed.The SuggestArr service itself is healthy and responding normally on port 5000, and the LXC is unprivileged with no extra storage mounts.
I’ll keep running it for the next week and report back on scheduled jobs, reboots, updates and general stability. So far the actual SuggestArr experience has been excellent.
