Install with your agent

Agent handoff

Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.

  1. Download the package from Yavira.
  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

What This Skill Does

This skill enables you to control aria2 download manager through natural language commands: Download files (HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/Magnet/Torrent/Metalink) Monitor download progress and status Control downloads (pause, resume, remove) Manage batch operations (pause all, resume all) View statistics and configure options

How to Use (For AI Agents)

โš ๏ธ CRITICAL: DO NOT manually construct JSON-RPC requests. โœ… ALWAYS use the Python scripts in the scripts/ directory. โš ๏ธ IMPORTANT: Use python3 command, NOT python (especially on macOS where python symlink doesn't exist)

Workflow (MUST FOLLOW)

Step 1: Check Configuration Status Before executing any aria2 commands, ALWAYS check if configuration is ready: python3 scripts/config_loader.py test If successful: Proceed to execute user's command If failed: Guide user to initialize configuration (see Step 2) Step 2: Initialize Configuration (if needed) If connection test fails, guide user to set up configuration: # Recommended: User config (survives skill updates) python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --user # Alternative: Local config (project-specific) python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --local Then instruct user to edit the generated config file with their aria2 server details. Step 3: Execute User Commands Once configuration is ready, execute the requested aria2 operations.

Example Workflow

User: "download http://example.com/file.zip" You execute: # 1. Check configuration python3 scripts/config_loader.py test If test passes: # 2. Execute download command python3 scripts/rpc_client.py aria2.addUri '["http://example.com/file.zip"]' You respond: "โœ“ Download started! GID: 2089b05ecca3d829" If test fails: Configuration not ready. Please initialize: 1. Run: python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --user 2. Edit ~/.config/aria2-skill/config.json with your aria2 server details 3. Run: python3 scripts/config_loader.py test (to verify)

Documentation Structure

Available Scripts

scripts/rpc_client.py - Main interface for RPC calls scripts/examples/list-downloads.py - Formatted download list scripts/examples/pause-all.py - Pause all downloads scripts/examples/add-torrent.py - Add torrent downloads scripts/examples/monitor-downloads.py - Real-time monitoring scripts/examples/set-options.py - Modify options

Configuration

Scripts automatically load configuration from multiple sources with the following priority (highest to lowest):

Configuration Priority

Environment Variables (highest priority - temporary override) ARIA2_RPC_HOST, ARIA2_RPC_PORT, ARIA2_RPC_PATH, etc. Best for: CI/CD pipelines, temporary overrides, testing Note: For reference only. Agents should use config files instead. Skill Directory Config (project-specific configuration) Location: skills/aria2-json-rpc/config.json Best for: Project-specific settings, local testing, development โš ๏ธ Warning: Lost when running npx skills add to update the skill User Config Directory (global fallback, update-safe) ๐Ÿ†• Location: ~/.config/aria2-skill/config.json Best for: Personal default settings across all projects โœ… Safe: Survives skill updates via npx skills add Defaults (localhost:6800) Zero-configuration fallback for local development

Configuration Options

host: Hostname or IP address (default: localhost) port: Port number (default: 6800) path: URL path (default: null). Set to /jsonrpc for standard aria2, or custom path for reverse proxy secret: RPC secret token (default: null) secure: Use HTTPS instead of HTTP (default: false) timeout: Request timeout in milliseconds (default: 30000)

Quick Setup (For AI Agents)

IMPORTANT: Always use Python scripts to manage configuration. Do NOT use shell commands directly. Step 1: Check current configuration status python3 scripts/config_loader.py show Step 2: Initialize configuration if needed User config (recommended - survives updates): python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --user Local config (project-specific): python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --local Step 3: Guide user to edit the config file After initialization, the tool will display the config file path. Instruct user to edit it with their aria2 server details (host, port, secret, etc.). Step 4: Verify configuration python3 scripts/config_loader.py test Example config file content: { "host": "localhost", "port": 6800, "secret": "your-secret-token", "secure": false, "timeout": 30000 }

Configuration Management (For AI Agents)

Available Python scripts for configuration management: # Check current configuration and source python3 scripts/config_loader.py show # Initialize user config (recommended - update-safe) python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --user # Initialize local config (project-specific) python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --local # Test connection to aria2 server python3 scripts/config_loader.py test Agent Workflow for Configuration Setup: Check if config exists: Run python3 scripts/config_loader.py show If config missing or invalid: Guide user to run python3 scripts/config_loader.py init --user User edits config: Tell user the file path and required fields (host, port, secret) Verify setup: Run python3 scripts/config_loader.py test Proceed with operations: Once test passes, execute user's aria2 commands

Advanced Configuration

Reverse Proxy Setup: For reverse proxy setups like https://example.com:443/jsonrpc, the config file should contain: { "host": "example.com", "port": 443, "path": "/jsonrpc", "secret": "your-secret-token", "secure": true } Environment Variables (for reference only): Configuration can also be overridden via environment variables: ARIA2_RPC_HOST: Hostname ARIA2_RPC_PORT: Port number ARIA2_RPC_PATH: URL path ARIA2_RPC_SECRET: Secret token ARIA2_RPC_SECURE: "true" or "false" Note: Use Python scripts for configuration management. Environment variables are documented here for reference only.

Key Principles (For AI Agents)

Never construct JSON-RPC requests manually Always call Python scripts via Bash tool using python3 (not python) Always check configuration before executing commands: Run python3 scripts/config_loader.py test first If test fails, guide user through initialization Never run raw shell commands (mkdir, cat, export, etc.) directly Use Python scripts: config_loader.py init, config_loader.py show, etc. Parse script output and format for users Refer to execution-guide.md when unsure

Download Management

Add downloads (HTTP/FTP/Magnet/Torrent/Metalink) Pause/resume (individual or all) Remove downloads Add with custom options

Monitoring

Check download status List active/waiting/stopped downloads Get global statistics Real-time monitoring

Configuration

Get/change download options Get/change global options Query aria2 version List available methods

Maintenance

Purge download results Remove specific results
