TypeType Downloader

The native download and muxing service for TypeType.

You want to know the current position of TypeType about AI ? Go check this.

TypeType-Downloader receives jobs from TypeType-Server, downloads the selected media streams, muxes audio and video without re-encoding, and publishes the finished artifact through local or S3-compatible storage.

Extraction stays in TypeType-Server. If you want to install or update a complete instance, use the central TypeType stack.

Responsibilities

• Persistent asynchronous download jobs
• Concurrent HTTP Range downloads and progress aggregation
• TypeType SABR segment downloads
• Audio and video stream-copy muxing through libavformat
• SSE job updates with polling-compatible state
• Cancellation, cleanup, and storage-capacity safeguards
• Local filesystem and S3/Garage artifact storage

Job API

Method	Path	Purpose
GET	/health	Basic service health
GET	/health/deep	Dependency and storage health
POST	/jobs	Create a download job
GET	/jobs/{id}	Read job state and progress
GET	/jobs/{id}/events	Stream job updates through SSE
GET	/jobs/{id}/artifact	Serve or redirect to the artifact
POST	/jobs/{id}/cancel	Cancel a queued or running job
DELETE	/jobs/{id}	Delete a non-running job and its artifact

Jobs use queued, running, done, and failed as their stable lifecycle states. TypeType-Server exposes the authenticated user-facing gateway for this API.
