Do you require that your torrent client download using .part files? Seems like it would be easier to disable that setting in your torrent client so it sequentially downloads into the expected file name and extension. That should be enough for Jellyfin to see it is a .mkv or whatever with the proper name and scan it/play it.
Never occurred to me it was optional. I'll have to check if there's a setting for it.
It's def optional, and usually default off in most torrent clients.
