isent Agent
File transfers from the command line
A single binary that uploads, downloads, watches folders, and automates transfers — without ever opening a browser.
The agent is in development. Check back soon.

Everything you need for automated transfers
Resumable uploads
Large transfers survive network drops. Pick up exactly where you left off with --resume.
Watch folders
Drop files in a folder and they upload automatically. No scripts needed.
Stream automations
Upload each file as it lands — ideal for render farms and ingest pipelines.
Scheduled transfers
Cron-style scheduling built in. Run transfers at night when bandwidth is free.
Bandwidth throttling
Cap upload speed so the agent never saturates your connection.
Scriptable & pipeable
Standard exit codes, JSON-friendly output, and a local REST API for automation.
Background daemon
Runs silently in the background
Install the agent as a system service and it starts automatically on login. Watch folders, stream automations, and scheduled jobs all run without a terminal window.
A local web UI at localhost:7420 lets you monitor transfers and manage automations from your browser.
