## Questions and answers
Written by GitHub.Locker from the README and the repository; check the README below for details.
**Is it a desktop app or a terminal tool?**
It is a desktop app with a GUI, built on Tauri 2.0, Rust and Svelte. You paste a link, pick a quality and press Enter. There is a command line section too, but the main use is the window.
**Do I need Python or other tools first?**
No. yt-dlp and FFmpeg install themselves and stay updated, so there is nothing to configure. The browser extension is optional and only needed for logged-in content.
**Any install pitfalls?**
The app is not signed with a paid certificate, so Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper warn once. On macOS you paste two lines into Terminal. On Debian 12+ or Ubuntu 24.04+ the AppImage needs libfuse2, so the .deb is easier. On Linux, media playback needs GStreamer good plugins, or players stay silent or crash.
**Which systems does it run on?**
Windows 10 and 11, macOS 10.15+ (Apple Silicon and Intel builds), and Linux through .deb, .rpm and AppImage for amd64 and arm64.
**Does it send my data anywhere?**
No account, no ads and no telemetry on what you download. Your files stay on your computer.
**Can I grab only the audio from a link?**
Yes. Copy a link and press Ctrl+Shift+M (Cmd+Shift+M on macOS) and it saves audio only, so a YouTube link becomes an MP3 without opening the window. The hotkey is off until you enable it, and Ctrl+Shift+D starts a normal background download.
**Can it download from Telegram and Bilibili?**
Yes. The Telegram plugin saves photos, videos, files and audio from channels or groups you belong to, into channel folders. Signed-in Bilibili supports 4K, HDR and Hi-Res audio depending on your subscription.
**What is the Tools section?**
It holds 158 tools in 25 categories that work on files you have already saved, such as transcribing, converting and reading them.
**Can AI agents use OmniGet?**
Yes. The README describes an MCP server and a Claude Code plugin for OmniGet, so AI agents can drive downloads from outside the window.

## Why OmniGet
You bought a course and want it on your disk before the platform pulls it. You keep a yt-dlp cheat sheet because the flags never stick. You have one site for Instagram stories, another for X videos, a Chrome extension for Pinterest, a Python script for subtitles, and none of them remember your login.
OmniGet puts all of that behind one text box. Paste a link, see a preview with quality options, click download. The same window then plays the course, reads the PDF, transcribes the audio and backs up the Pinterest board. yt-dlp and FFmpeg install themselves and stay updated, so there is nothing to configure and no terminal to open.
### How it compares
| | OmniGet | yt-dlp alone | Single-site web downloaders | Paid course downloaders |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sites | Courses, Instagram, X, Pinterest, Bilibili, Telegram, torrents natively, plus 1,800+ through yt-dlp | 1,800+ | One | One or two platforms |
| Setup | Download one file, open it | Python, PATH, FFmpeg, flags | None | Installer, license key |
| Logged-in content | Cookies from your browser through the extension | Manual `--cookies` export | Rarely | Sometimes |
| Queue | Resume, retry with backoff, rules, followed channels | One command at a time | No | Varies |
| After the download | Player, reader, flashcards, notes, 158 tools | Files | Files, often re-encoded | Files |
| Price and license | Free, GPL-3.0 | Free, Unlicense | Free with ads | Subscription |
yt-dlp is the engine OmniGet runs on, and OmniGet would not exist without it. If you live in a terminal and only want files, yt-dlp alone is the right tool.

### The first launch warning, and how to clear it
OmniGet is not signed with a paid certificate, so each system shows a warning the first time. This is normal for open source desktop apps and you handle it once.
**Windows.** SmartScreen shows a blue box. Click **More info**, then **Run anyway**.
**macOS.** Gatekeeper refuses to open the app and may say it is "damaged". After you drag OmniGet into Applications, open Terminal (Spotlight, type "Terminal") and paste these two lines:
```bash
xattr -cr /Applications/omniget.app
codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/omniget.app
```
Then open OmniGet from Launchpad as usual.
**Linux, AppImage on Debian 12+ or Ubuntu 24.04+.** Those releases ship without FUSE 2, which AppImage needs. If the file fails with a libfuse error, run `sudo apt install libfuse2`, or launch it with `./omniget.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run`. The `.deb` avoids this entirely.
### Linux media plugins
OmniGet draws its window with WebKitGTK, and WebKitGTK plays every `` and `` through GStreamer. If the GStreamer plugins are missing, WebKitGTK does not fail the media quietly: it aborts its own web process the moment a player appears, and you are left with an empty window. Most desktop distributions already have the plugins. Arch and the minimal server images treat them as optional, so install them once:
```bash
sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-libav # Debian, Ubuntu
sudo dnf install gstreamer1-plugins-good gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free gstreamer1-plugin-libav # Fedora
sudo pacman -S gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-bad gst-libav # Arch
```
`gstreamer1.0-plugins-good` (`gst-plugins-good`) is the one that stops the crash, because the audio sink WebKitGTK insists on lives there. The other two carry the H.264 and AAC decoders, so without them a player opens but stays silent or black. The `.deb` and `.rpm` ask for all three, so this only comes up with the AppImage or a package built by hand.
### Portable mode
Create an empty file named `portable.txt` (or `.portable`) next to the Windows `.exe` and relaunch. Settings, the database, cookies, plugins, caches, yt-dlp and FFmpeg all move to a `data` folder next to the executable. Nothing touches `AppData`, so the whole install fits on a USB stick.
---
## Your first download in one minute
1. Open OmniGet. The setup screen asks for your language and theme, then installs yt-dlp and FFmpeg with one click. yt-dlp is checked against its SHA-256 before it runs.
2. Copy any link: a YouTube video, an Instagram reel, an X post, a Pinterest board, a magnet, a direct file URL.
3. Paste it in the box on the home screen. OmniGet detects the site and shows the title, thumbnail and available qualities. Pick one and press Enter.
The Downloads page shows speed, phase and ETA read straight from the downloader, so a stalled download looks stalled instead of frozen at "3 seconds left". Interrupted downloads resume where they stopped. Rate-limited sites get retried with backoff, and connections per site adapt on their own, so YouTube gets up to 16 parallel fragments while a site that answers 429 gets fewer. When a Python 3.10 or newer is present, yt-dlp runs as a zipapp on it and starts in under a second instead of unpacking the bundled binary on every launch.
### Skip the window entirely
Copy a link anywhere on your system and press **Ctrl+Shift+D** (**Cmd+Shift+D** on macOS). OmniGet reads the clipboard and starts the download in the background. A second hotkey, **Ctrl+Shift+M**, grabs audio only, so a YouTube link becomes an MP3 without opening anything. It is off until you enable it, and both shortcuts can be rebound in **Settings → Downloads → Clipboard & hotkeys**.
---
## What OmniGet downloads
OmniGet has native extractors for the platforms people use most, and hands everything else to [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp), which covers roughly 1,800 sites.
| Category | Sites and formats |
|---|---|
| /`), through the embedded Telegram plugin |
Options you set once and forget: default quality, audio-only format (MP3, M4A, Opus, FLAC or WAV), subtitle languages and format (SRT, VTT, ASS, embedded or sidecar), thumbnail and metadata embedding, filename template, organize by platform, skip existing files, split by chapters, speed limit, concurrent downloads, proxy. Rules send a given channel or host to a folder and quality of your choice without asking again. Followed channels are checked in the background and can download new uploads automatically with a tray notification.
---
## The browser extension, step by step
The extension does two jobs. On sites it recognizes (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, Twitch, Pinterest, Bluesky, Telegram, Vimeo, Udemy, Hotmart, Rocketseat, Bilibili, SoundCloud) it sends the page to OmniGet with one click or with **Alt+O**. On any other site it watches network traffic for MP4, HLS, DASH, WebM and audio streams and lists them in its popup. In both cases it forwards your cookies and referer, which is what lets OmniGet download private content you are logged into, such as Instagram stories, a paid course, or a members-only video. Cookies are grouped by real site, so a Brazilian `.com.br` domain gets its own entry instead of sharing one with every other `.com.br` site. The popup also has a **Force H.264** switch for YouTube, for computers that stutter on VP9 and AV1.
For the sites the sniffer cannot see, there is **Deep search**, a switch in the popup that hooks the page's own video player and catches playlists that never show up as network requests. It asks for permission on all sites the first time and stays off until then. Around it, the sniffer estimates the size of an HLS stream before you download, pairs the separate video and audio tracks a site serves so you get one file, checks the first bytes of what it found so an HTML error page is never saved as a video, and lets you edit the capture rules in the options page. The same options page can back up the list of extensions you have installed, ahead of Chrome dropping Manifest V2 extensions; that needs the optional "management" permission and asks for it only when you use it.
Pick the level that matches how comfortable you are.
### Level 1: from inside the app (no downloads, no zip files)
1. Open OmniGet and install it if you have not. Launch it once.
2. Go to **Settings → Plugins → Browser extension**. Click **Update / Install** next to Chrome. OmniGet copies the extension that ships inside it to a folder and opens that folder for you.
3. Open Chrome (Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers work the same way) and type `chrome://extensions` in the address bar.
4. Turn on **Developer mode** with the switch in the top right corner.
5. Click **Load unpacked** and pick the folder OmniGet just opened.
6. The OmniGet icon appears in the toolbar. An options page opens on its own and says it is looking for the app.
7. Back in OmniGet, still in **Settings → Plugins → Browser extension**, click **Pair extension**. Within a few seconds the app says "Extension connected" and the options page turns green. Done.
From now on, visit any supported page and click the icon. The page, its cookies and its title go to OmniGet and the download starts. Your cookies also show up in **Settings → Cookies**, where the Courses plugin and the Instagram, X and Pinterest tools reuse them.
### Level 2: from the release zip
Every release ships `omniget-chrome-extension-vX.Y.Z.zip`. Download it from the [latest release](https://github.com/OpenSelena/omniget/releases/latest), unzip it, then follow steps 3 to 7 above pointing **Load unpacked** at the unzipped folder. Use this if you keep the app on one machine and the browser on another, or if you are installing for someone else.
### Level 3: Firefox, other browsers and manual pairing
Firefox: **Settings → Plugins → Browser extension → Update / Install** next to Firefox, then open `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox`, click **Load Temporary Add-on** and pick `manifest.json` in the exported folder. Firefox drops temporary add-ons on restart, so repeat this until the extension is published on AMO. Safari is not supported yet because Safari extensions must ship through the App Store.
Manual pairing: if **Pair extension** times out, open the extension's options page (right-click the icon → Options), then in OmniGet reveal and copy the **Pairing token** and paste it into the options page. The endpoint URL is detected automatically. The app listens on `127.0.0.1` ports 47720 to 47729 and the token is generated per install, so nothing leaves your machine.
If the extension is installed but OmniGet is closed, clicks fall back to the `omniget://` link scheme, which still queues the URL but cannot carry cookies. Tick "Always allow" the first time Chrome asks.
---
## The Tools section: 158 tools in 25 categories
Tools is the part of OmniGet that grew beyond downloading. Each tile is one job: an isolated Rust command with JSON in and JSON out, which is also what lets AI agents drive them through the built-in MCP server. The hub has a search box that understands English and Portuguese ("legenda" finds subtitle tools) and a platform filter, and tools that only run on Windows say so on the tile and stay hidden elsewhere. Everything below runs on your machine; the only tools that touch the network are the ones that fetch from the site they are named after.
Status legend: no mark means ready, **beta** means it works but has not been tested against every account type, **planned** means the tile exists so you can see where things are going and does nothing yet.
###
Two doors, depending on where your agent lives.
**Inside the app: the MCP server.** Turn it on in Tools → AI → MCP server and OmniGet exposes 37 of its tools over the Model Context Protocol on the same local bridge the browser extension uses, behind the same per-install token. An agent can queue a URL and watch, pause, resume or cancel it in the Downloads panel, merge, split, render, extract text from or sanitize PDFs, transcribe a file with whisper.cpp, run text to speech and OCR, resize images, find duplicates, search files, read X posts, threads, profiles, searches and trends, look up an Instagram profile through your session, compare LLM prices, humanize text, scan disks and caches, list startup items and installed apps, and pull large files or galleries with aria2 and gallery-dl. The page prints the config snippet for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Goose and Codex, so it is a paste, not a setup. *beta*
**Inside Claude Code: the `omniget` plugin.** The [`claude-plugin/`](claude-plugin/omniget) folder ships a plugin for [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) that needs no desktop app at all. Paste a video, audio or social post URL with a request and the `omniget-fetch` and `omniget-transcribe` skills trigger on their own. The slash commands are there when you want to be explicit:
```
/plugin marketplace add /path/to/omniget/claude-plugin
/plugin install omniget
/omniget:setup # installs yt-dlp, ffmpeg and omniget-cli after one confirmation
/omniget:fetch [--audio] # the media file, to ~/Downloads/omniget
/omniget:transcribe # captions, then local whisper.cpp, then Gemini or OpenAI if you added a key
/omniget:research # caption plus transcript distilled into a Markdown note with [mm:ss] references
/omniget:doctor # what is installed, what is missing, how to add it
```
Setup downloads the prebuilt `omniget-cli` for your OS, which gives the skill OmniGet's native Instagram, X, Bilibili and Threads extractors. A download that fails on a login wall is retried once with the cookies of the browser you name in `OMNIGET_COOKIES_FROM_BROWSER`. API keys go into `~/.config/ai-keys.env` from your own terminal and are never printed back.
---
## Plugins: Courses, Study, Telegram, Convert
Core plugins are embedded directly into the application binary, eliminating runtime download and ABI compatibility errors. The Marketplace page shows active plugins, what each plugin is allowed to do (events, notifications, settings, download folders, proxy, managed tools, download queue), and lets you configure or toggle them.
###
- Library and player. Point Study at your course folders (nothing is copied or moved). The player resumes to the second, and pressing **N** captures a note at the current timestamp that jumps back there when clicked.
- Reader. PDF, EPUB, DJVU, MOBI, AZW3, FB2, CBZ, CBR, TXT, RTF and HTML, with highlights, bookmarks, collections, a focus mode and a paper-like theme. Covers, titles and authors are pulled from the files.
- Notes. A Markdown and LaTeX editor with links between pages, a daily journal, templates, tags, a knowledge graph, and export to `.md` or PDF. Any note can become a flashcard.
- Anki. Spaced repetition decks with import from `.apkg`, `.txt` and CSV, filtered decks, presets, note types, tags, media, stats and a review log.
- Focus. Pomodoro and deep-work timers with daily and weekly targets that pause the player when the session ends.
- Progress and achievements. Streaks, daily goals, a year heatmap and local XP with no leaderboard.
- Music. Your local library with covers, artists and albums, synced lyrics, favorites, history, playlists, genres, transcoding, and browsers for Spotify, SoundCloud and YouTube Music so playlists and likes sit next to your files.
###
Match scouting for both teams with rank, recent form, KDA and the champions each player actually plays. Win probability that shrinks win rates toward the baseline by sample size and always shows a range. Live gold, CS and level for all ten players. Goals per role you can edit. Runes and summoner spells recommended by the client itself, applied in one click and only ever replacing the page OmniGet created. Champion tiers by role. Player search by Riot ID. Opt-in automation: accept matches, pick and ban from your priority list, grab a champion off the ARAM bench. Every automation has its own switch.
New and marked beta or experimental: a **Profile** tab that edits what other players see (rank shown in chat, challenge medals and title, banner and crest, chat icon, bulk friend management); a **skin, chroma and ward roulette** that rolls an owned skin the moment you lock in, with rerolls; a **champion and lane raffle** for when you want the queue to decide, plus an optional random pick in champion select; full **match history and ranked stats for any player** through the client's own backend gateway, with replay download; and an **AI coach** that reviews a game, spots trends over your last matches or answers a question about the current champ select, using your configured AI provider and OP.GG's public data.
---
## Everything else in the box
- Command palette (**Ctrl+K** or **Cmd+K**) that jumps to any page, setting or tool.
- Clipboard detection that offers to download a copied link with one click on a toast.
- Cookie manager that keeps sessions per site, captured by the extension or imported from a `cookies.txt`, with a test button per domain.
- Video summaries: paste a URL in **Settings → AI**, OmniGet fetches the subtitles and summarizes them in the length and language you choose.
- Send a file to someone: pick a file, share the word code, the other person pastes it in their OmniGet.
- Discord Rich Presence showing what you are listening to, watching or reading. Downloads stay private.
- Tray icon, start with system, start minimized, prevent sleep during downloads.
- Every download keeps the exact yt-dlp command it ran. Open it, edit a flag, retry.
- 14 themes, including Catppuccin (four flavors), Dracula, One Dark Pro, three e-ink variants and three Nyxvamp variants.
- 12 languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian, Greek, Russian, Japanese, Persian, Lao, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
- Runs on Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux (x86_64 and ARM64).

## Privacy and what OmniGet refuses to do
Everything runs on your computer. There is no account, no server of ours in the middle, and no telemetry about what you download. Cookies and API keys live in your local profile. The only network calls OmniGet makes on its own are to the sites you asked it to download from, to GitHub for updates and plugins, and to the AI provider you configured, when you use an AI tool.
OmniGet downloads what your own logged-in session can already open. It does not bypass DRM, break paywalls, or share credentials, and DRM-protected lectures are skipped and reported. You are responsible for respecting copyright and each platform's terms of service. The full text is in the app under **About → Terms and ethics**.

## Code signing policy
Free code signing on Windows provided by [SignPath.io](https://about.signpath.io), certificate by [SignPath Foundation](https://signpath.org).
Code changes and signed releases are reviewed and approved by the OpenSelena maintainers. See [Privacy and what OmniGet refuses to do](#privacy-and-what-omniget-refuses-to-do) and the [privacy documentation](https://omniget.nav.bd/docs/#privacy) for how OmniGet handles data.

## Frequently asked questions
**Is OmniGet free?**
Yes. GPL-3.0, no paid tier, no ads, no account.
**Is OmniGet a yt-dlp GUI?**
Partly. yt-dlp handles the long tail of sites and OmniGet bundles it, verifies it and updates it. On top of that sit native extractors for courses, Instagram, X, Pinterest, Bilibili, Telegram and torrents, a queue with resume and retry, the Tools section, and the Study library.
**Can OmniGet download a Udemy or Hotmart course I bought?**
Yes. The Courses plugin is embedded directly in the app. Sign in through the app, pick the course and sections, and download. Lessons and attachments land in a folder per course and appear in Study. 38 platforms are supported, including Hotmart, Udemy, Kiwify, Rocketseat, Coursera, Domestika, and more.
**Can it download Instagram stories, close friends or highlights?**
Yes, using your own session captured by the browser extension. Stories are downloaded without being marked as seen.
**Can it download an X video, a whole thread or all media from a profile?**
Yes. Public posts need no login. Bookmarks and your own follow lists need your X session.
**Can it back up a Pinterest board in original quality?**
Yes, including videos, sections, secret boards with cookies, and incremental sync so you only fetch what is new.
**Does it resume interrupted downloads?**
Yes. Partial files are kept and continued, and rate limits trigger retries with backoff.
**Which formats can it save?**
Video as MP4, MKV or WebM. Audio as MP3, M4A, Opus, FLAC or WAV. Subtitles as SRT, VTT or ASS, embedded or beside the file.
**Does it need Python, Node or a terminal?**
No. Download the app, open it, paste a link. The only terminal step is the one-time macOS Gatekeeper fix above.
**macOS says the app is damaged.**
Run the two commands in [the first launch section](#the-first-launch-warning-and-how-to-clear-it). It happens because the app is not notarized, and it happens once.
**Can it read my Reddit, LinkedIn, Spotify, X or Instagram data export?**
Yes. Request the export from the platform, then open the zip in the matching tool. It is parsed on your machine and nothing is uploaded.
**Can an AI agent use OmniGet?**
Yes, two ways. The MCP server in Tools → AI exposes 37 tools to Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Goose and Codex, and the `claude-plugin/` folder ships a Claude Code plugin that fetches and transcribes media without the desktop app. See [OmniGet for AI agents](#omniget-for-ai-agents-mcp-server-and-claude-code-plugin).
**Can I transcribe a video to subtitles offline?**
Yes. Tools → Speech and subtitles → Transcribe uses whisper.cpp locally. Models download on demand.
**Can I run it from a USB stick?**
Yes, on Windows, with a `portable.txt` file next to the executable.
**Which Linux package should I pick?**
Debian and Ubuntu: `.deb`. Fedora, openSUSE, RHEL family: `.rpm`. Anything else: `.AppImage`. Both x86_64 and ARM64 are published. OmniGet is not on Flathub.

## Command line
`omniget-cli` ships with every release for Windows, macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon) and Linux. Grab `omniget-cli--` from the [latest release](https://github.com/OpenSelena/omniget/releases/latest).
```bash
omniget info # title, formats and size, downloads nothing
omniget download -q 1080 -o ~/Videos
omniget download --audio-only --subs en,pt
omniget batch links.txt -m 3 # one URL per line, 3 at a time
omniget import-cookies cookies.txt # Netscape format
```
---
## Build from source
If you only want to use OmniGet, [grab a release](#download-and-install). To build it you need [Rust](https://rustup.rs/) (the exact toolchain is pinned in `rust-toolchain.toml` because the plugin ABI depends on it), [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) 18+ and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/).
```bash
git clone https://github.com/OpenSelena/omniget.git
cd omniget
pnpm install
pnpm tauri dev
```
Linux build dependencies
```bash
sudo apt-get install -y libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev build-essential curl wget file libxdo-dev libssl-dev \
libayatana-appindicator3-dev librsvg2-dev patchelf libasound2-dev libpipewire-0.3-dev clang libclang-dev
```
Production build:
```bash
pnpm tauri build --config '{"bundle":{"createUpdaterArtifacts":false}}'
```
Releases sign their updater artifacts with a private key only the maintainer holds, so a plain `pnpm tauri build` stops with "A public key has been found, but no private key". The flag above turns those artifacts off for a local build and changes nothing else.
The `courses`, `telegram`, `convert` and `study` plugins live inside `src-tauri/plugins/` and compile into the main binary. The plugin registry is [omniget-plugins](https://github.com/OpenSelena/omniget-plugins).
Stack: Tauri 2, Rust, SvelteKit with Svelte 5, SQLite, yt-dlp, FFmpeg, librqbit for torrents, whisper.cpp, aria2, gallery-dl.
