Seems so. It looks like a DHT crawler with additional protocols for exchanging magnets with other identical clients, bypassing the need to crawl for it.
Personally I run magnetico which works well (I don’t need an integrated client) but given how DHT crawling hits your local network I’d say the P2P sharing of magnets is a good idea, at worst it’s net neutral. Depending on how regulated the protocol is though, it’s quite possible that it can be abused in order to boost infected torrents.

Is this like a local DHT crawler? The project page is a bit vague on that front, and the architecture diagram is… not very helpful.
