WebStreamr (public instances) Debrid
deadanonymousno cardD
| Free tier | None any more. The addon was archived upstream and both public instances now serve a retirement page: the ElfHosted instance states 'The developer has archived Webstreamr, and in consultation, we've retired the hosted public instance donated to Hayd'; the Hayd instance serves the title 'Webstreamr is deprecated'. unit none; metered on none; The retirement pages return HTTP 200 with no redirect, so any check that trusts status codes scores this as alive. |

| Per-object cap | not applicable: stream descriptors |
| Retention | not applicable |
| Egress | Never reached: the addon served no streams. Historically it returned HTTP URLs from streaming sites, which play without a debrid account at the source site's bitrate. free_allowance: none |
| Identity | anonymous Nothing to register - there is nothing left to register for. |
| Limits |
The limit that killed it was not traffic but maintenance: the upstream developer archived the project and the sponsor withdrew the instance. |
| Binding | none No constraint applies: the service returns a retirement notice for every path, which is a total failure rather than a quota. |
| Interface | rest Stremio addon protocol. Both /manifest.json and /stream/movie/tt1254207.json returned the same 24,382-byte HTML retirement page. |
| Tooling | self-hosting the archived source remains possible, but that needs a machine - which is the one thing for a user does not have. |
| Composes with | It was the only free hosted addon found that needed no debrid key at all, so its death removes the no-key HTTP branch of the free floor. |
| Reliability | HTTP 200 on every path with a deprecation page is the exact failure the corpus warns about. |
| Notes | This is the finding that decides the free floor: the no-debrid-key branch is gone, so every surviving free front end needs either a debrid key or a local streaming server. |
| Evidence rung | documented Both the manifest and a stream call were fetched; each returned the retirement HTML. A dated search result also pointed at the ElfHosted retirement page. Downgraded from measured: no probe record with status, bytes and digest exists. |
