streamlift-worker
Distributed download worker for StreamLift.
Designed to run in Google Colab — paste the one-liner from the dashboard and go.
What it does
- Registers itself with the StreamLift backend
- Polls for download tasks (HTTP URLs or magnet links)
- Downloads files and streams them directly to Mega (zero local disk) or saves them locally
- Reports live progress back to the backend
- Sends heartbeats with CPU / RAM / network metrics
