Oldest-first reaper with the original's 50 MB headroom pad, plus a reconcile pass for files deleted by hand and pruning of stale entries. The Python meant to reap only read, unflagged episodes but a missing import and a typo made that filter throw on every candidate. Requiring read=1 would be equally dead headless, so flagged is the keep-forever marker and read only decides ordering.

ipodderx-rs
A headless podcatcher: scans RSS/Atom feeds, downloads enclosures (HTTP and BitTorrent), files them into per-feed folders, and reaps old episodes to stay under a disk quota. Runs as a one-shot CLI or as a daemon with a Unix-socket JSON event stream for a UI to attach to.
Lineage
This is a modern Rust rewrite of ipodderx-core, the Python 2 engine behind iPodderX (2004-2008, Ray Slakinski & August Trometer), which was open-sourced under the MIT License in 2010.
What carries over: the feed scan and TTL handling, GUID/URL dedupe, per-feed and per-date download folders, keyword filters, the explicit-content filter, torrent enclosures, and "SmartSpace" — the oldest-first disk quota reaper.
What does not: iTunes and iPhoto export via AppleScript, text-to-speech enclosures, the Windows
WMP/COM paths, XML plists and Python pickles for state, the directory.iPodderX.com survey ping,
3DES-encrypted preferences, and the printMSG stdout protocol (replaced by a JSON-lines socket).
Status
Under construction. See PROGRESS.md for what works today.
Configuration

usage section lands.
