You create a "Torrent Blackhole" download client, set the Blackhole folder to somewhere irrelevant (nothing should end up here anyway if you don't have an indexer setup, I set mine to /tmp). Set the watch folder to the one you want it to watch for new files.
When you add a book, it'll go in the activity tab and either auto import if it matches a book with your settings, or you'll get the option to manual import it and select the author, book, series, etc.
Keep in mind you still have to add the author under "Add New".
ah ok, got it to work with manual imports now, but I think maybe this doesn't really suit my use case. big thanks for explaining the readarr stuff! I can see why people would like it if they use the grabbing parts of it as well.
