Download the torrent file for a specific torrent by id.
AI agents call download_torrent_file to retrieve information from Fr Torrent Search MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Even though download_torrent_file only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
