What Is Comet Kodi Addon?
Comet is a scraper add-on for Kodi that gained massive popularity among Stremio users before its developer (g0ldyy) released an official Kodi version. Unlike traditional Kodi addons that scrape multiple free sources, Comet is built around a Debrid-first architecture—it exclusively pulls streams from cached torrents and Debrid-hosted content.
Who Is This Addon For?
- Kodi users who already subscribe to a Debrid service (Real-Debrid, Premiumize, TorBox, etc.)
- Users frustrated with unreliable free streams and broken links
- Cord-cutters with multiple devices in the same household (Comet supports multi-IP streaming)
- Those who want a lightweight, fast alternative to bloated all-in-one addons
Key Value Propositions:
- ⚡ Blazing fast – Lightweight design with minimal overhead
- 🔗 Multi-Debrid support – Add multiple Debrid accounts in one addon
- 🏠 Debrid stream proxy – Share one Debrid account across multiple devices without IP restrictions
- 🔄 CometNet – Decentralized P2P network for automatic torrent metadata sharing
- 🎯 Focus on what works – No clutter, just reliable Debrid streams

- Click the Settings (gear icon) at the top-left of the main screen.
- Select System.
- In the left sidebar, hover over Add-ons.
- In the right panel, toggle Unknown sources to ON.

Note: These steps work identically on Firestick, Fire TV, Android TV, Google TV, NVIDIA Shield, and all Kodi-compatible devices.
📥 Installation Tutorial: Comet Kodi Addon
Part 1: Add the Repository Source
- From the Kodi Settings page, select File Manager.
- Click Add source.
- Click \.
- Enter the repository URL:
https://g0ldyy.github.io/comet. - Click OK.
- Enter a name for this source (e.g.,
comet) and click OK.
Part 2: Install the Repository
- Press the back button on your remote until you return to the System screen.
- Select Add-ons from the left menu.
- Click the open box icon (Add-on browser) at the top-left.
- Select Install from zip file.
- Find and click the folder you named (e.g.,
comet). - Select the repository ZIP file:
repository.comet-X.Y.Z.zip. - Wait for the “Comet Repository enabled” notification.

- Find and select Comet Repository.
- Navigate to Video add-ons → Comet.

Troubleshooting: If step 4 fails right after installing the repository, restart Kodi and try the install again.
Part 4: Cleanup (Optional but Recommended)
- Go back to File Manager → Add source.
- Find the source you added (
comet). - Long-press or right-click and select Remove source.
- Confirm removal (this does not affect the installed addon).
⚙️ Configuration: Connect Your Debrid Service
This is the most critical step. Comet will not work without Debrid integration.
Step 1: Open Comet Settings
- From Kodi’s home screen, select Add-ons from the left menu.
- Click My add-ons.
- Select Video add-ons.
- Find and select Comet.
- Click Configure.
- In the Comet category, click Configure/Reconfigure.
- Leave the Comet base URL as-is and click OK.
- Click OK again.
- A “Comet Kodi Setup” message will appear with a 6-character setup code (e.g.,
1A2B3C). Make note of this code—you’ll need it in the next step.
Step 2: Configure Debrid Services in Your Browser
- On a computer or phone, open the Comet configuration page:
https://g0ldyy.github.io/comet/. - Select your preferred resolutions and set:
- Max Results per Resolution (suggested: 5)
- Max file size (suggested: 10 GB)
- Add your Debrid service(s):
- Under “Debrid Services,” select your provider from the dropdown menu
- Enter your API Key (click “Get API key” for a direct link to your Debrid account page)
- You can add multiple Debrid services to the same Comet instance
- Choose your preferred language and select languages to exclude.
- Click the “Setup Kodi” button at the bottom of the page.
- Enter the 6-character setup code from your Kodi screen and click Setup.
- Return to Kodi—you should see a “Kodi setup complete” success message.
- Click OK, then select Open to launch the Comet addon.
⚠️ Critical Note: The setup code is time-sensitive. If it expires, simply click Configure/Reconfigure again in Kodi to generate a new code.
🎮 Post-Installation UI/UX Walkthrough
Once configured and launched, the Comet interface is refreshingly simple and focused:
| Menu Category | What You’ll Find |
|---|---|
| Movies | Browse trending, popular, and newest movies with high-quality Debrid streams |
| Series | Browse TV shows by genre, popularity, and recently updated |
| Search | Search for any movie or TV show by title |
| Settings | Access addon configuration (Debrid services, resolution preferences, etc.) |
What to Expect:
- Clean, minimalist design – no cluttered menus or confusing categories
- Fast stream discovery – because Comet only searches Debrid-cached content, results appear significantly faster than traditional scrapers
- High-quality streams – predominantly 1080p and 4K from your Debrid provider
- Multiple Debrid sources – if you added multiple services, streams from all will appear
Pro Tip: Comet is especially reliable when other addons fail to find streams.
🧰 Troubleshooting: Common Comet Errors
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| “Setup code invalid” or “obsolete” | The code expires quickly. Click Configure/Reconfigure again in Kodi to generate a fresh code, then complete browser setup within 2-3 minutes. |
| “No streams found” | Verify your Debrid service is active and has cached content for what you’re searching. Try adding a second Debrid service. Check that your API key is correct. |
| Addon won’t install after repository | Restart Kodi completely and try installing from the repository again. |
| App crashes or freezes | Clear Kodi cache: Settings → System → Storage → Clear Cache. If persistent, uninstall and reinstall the addon. |
| Streams buffer constantly | Check your internet speed (25+ Mbps recommended for 4K). Connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi. Lower your resolution preference in Comet settings. |
| “Debrid service not authorized” | Re-enter your API key in the browser configuration page and re-run the Setup Kodi process. |
| Premiumize or TorBox not working | Ensure your subscription is active. Some users report better results with Real-Debrid as primary. |
| Can’t find the addon after install | Go to Add-ons → My add-ons → Video add-ons → Comet. If still missing, restart Kodi. |
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Is Comet Kodi addon free?
The addon itself is free, but it requires a paid Debrid subscription (Real-Debrid, Premiumize, TorBox, etc.) to function. Without a Debrid service, Comet will not work.

Privacy Tools Recommendation
| Tool | Purpose | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| VPN | Hide IP, encrypt traffic | Strongly Recommended |
| Debrid Service | Cached streams, hide P2P | Required for Comet |
| Trakt | Sync watch history | Optional but useful |
